osinfo-db-export(1)		Osinfo DB Tools		   osinfo-db-export(1)

NAME
       osinfo-db-export	- Export to a osinfo database archive

SYNOPSIS
       osinfo-db-export	[OPTIONS...] [ARCHIVE-FILE]

DESCRIPTION
       The osinfo-db-export tool will create an	osinfo database	archive	file
       containing the content from one of the standard local database
       locations:

       system
	This is	the primary system-wide	database location, intended for	use by
	operating  system  vendors  distributing  database files in the	native
	package	format.

       local
	This is	the secondary system-wide database location, intended for  use
	by  system  administrators  wishing to provide an updated database for
	all users.

       user
	This is	the user  private  database  location,	intended  for  use  by
	unprivileged local users wishing to provide applications they use with
	an updated database.

       If  run	by a privileged	account	(ie root), the local database location
       will be used by default,	otherwise the user location will be used.

       If no ARCHIVE-FILE path is given, an automatically  generated  filename
       will be used, taking the	format osinfo-db-$VERSION.tar.xz.

OPTIONS
       --user  Override	 the  default  behaviour to force archiving files from
	       the user	database location.

       --local Override	the default behaviour to force	archiving  files  from
	       the local database location.

       --system
	       Override	 the  default  behaviour to force archiving files from
	       the system database location.

       --dir=PATH
	       Override	the default behaviour to force	archiving  files  from
	       the custom directory PATH.

       --root=PATH
	       Prefix  the  database location with the root directory given by
	       "PATH". This is useful when wishing to archive files  that  are
	       in a chroot environment or equivalent.

       --version=VERSION
	       Set the version string for the files in the archive to VERSION.
	       If  this	 argument is not given,	the version will be set	to the
	       current date in the format YYYYMMDD.

       --license=LICENSE-FILE
	       Add "LICENSE-FILE" to the generated archive as an  entry	 named
	       "LICENSE".

       -v, --verbose
	       Display verbose progress	information when archiving files

EXIT STATUS
       The  exit  status will be 0 if all files	were packed successfully, or 1
       if at least one file could not be packed	into the archive.
