View a local package summary

You can use the Management of Change (MoC) Package tool (dnapackage) to view a summary of changeset entries added to a package. The provided information, which is in .CSV format, depends on the type of changeset summarized.

To view a summary of changesets added to a package

1. On the desktop, double-click the Windows PowerShell for DNA shortcut.

   Windows PowerShell for DNA opens.

2. Execute the following commands:

   set-silo RealTime

   dnapackage summarize --package <package file path> --path <summary path> [--changeset <changeset id> –-type <type>]

   Where:

   • --package <package file path> is the absolute path to the local .pkg file.

   • --path <summary path> is the absolute path to which you want to write the changeset summaries.

   • --changeset <changeset id> is the identification number of the specific changeset you want to view.

   • --type <type> describes a valid changeset type (for example, --type display).

     Important: While --changeset and --type are optional, you must either a) include both of them or b) include neither of them.
     
     Note: If a changeset and type are not specified, all changesets in the package will be summarized.

The dnapackage summarize command –-package C:\temp\package.pkg –-path C:\temp\summary.csv might result in the following output:
