[Radiant] /admin/export

Fri Jul 14 15:43:03 CDT 2006

Hi all,

I'm rather new to radiant and I'm using it to set up a small-scale intranet
site. I wanted to do an /admin/export to create a template that could be
used for the setup_database script, but I'm running into difficulties. The
YAML file I get from the export seems to be in a different format than
setup_database is expecting.

I'm not very familiar with YAML or how it is generated and parsed in Ruby,
so I'm a bit lost. I was initially running Radiant from a RubyGem, but I've
since switched to the subversion trunk in the hopes that this issue would be
resolved (perhaps by the fact that it's got its own Rails in /vendor/...I
thought maybe this was an issue with my version of Rails and how it handles
YAML conversions).

So I've got Radiant rev. 85 running on Rails 1.1.2 (or whichever version is
in /vendor/), served via LightTPD.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The export files I get look like this:

...etc.

The templates in /db/templates, on the other hand, look like this:

  Layouts:
    main:
      id: 1

...etc.
