Art Vandelay allows you to import and export fields and section and tabs to and from a Craft site.

#What's in version 2?

This is the alpha release of version 2.

In version 2 we upgraded the interface so it is no longer a single page. There are now 3 types of export you can do:

Export Field Groups - export an entire group of fields
Export Section - note version 2 automatically exports the fields that belong to a section.
Export a Tab - You can export a single entry Type tab, the fields that belong to that tab are also exported.

The import now has a couple of steps:

Paste your export file into the textbox
You are presented with a report page indicating what the import will do and potential issues. eg. if a field type has changed.
For tab imports you can select which entry types you want to add the tab to

Installing

Navigate to your plugins in the admin interface and click the 'Art Vandelay' link on the left.
To import data, paste previously exported JSON into the text field and click Import.
To export data, select the field groups you would like to export fields from, the sections you would like to export, then hit Export. The exported data will appear in a text field for you to copy.

Make sure you have your latest export stored at ./craft/config/schema.json.

Then just run to import...

php ./craft/app/etc/console/yiic artvandelay
