Idea #3699
Updated by Tim Pierce over 9 years ago
Use case: copy pipeline instance from one Arvados instance to another, so that the target instance can run the pipeline. Syntax: <pre> $ arv-copy [--recursive=true/false] [pipeline-instance-uuid] [source-arvados] [target-arvados] </pre> By default, arv-copy exports the specified pipeline instance from the _source-arvados_ instance and imports it # Need to _target-arvados_. The @--recursive@ option, which defaults be able to true, also copies the following data: * copy collections (copy blocks and then copy manifest_text) * # Need to be able to copy docker images (collection copy + docker specific tags) * # Need to be able to copy pipeline templates (copy name, components) * ** Provide --recursive option that copies input collections and docker images ** Fetch/push git repository (clone entire repository; repository, update name of repository to use in components of target pipeline template) If @--recursive=false@, copy only the pipeline instance, but emit a warning that the user will have to fix the pipeline template UUID by hand. Syntax: $ arv-copy works only on pipeline instances. It returns an error if _pipeline-instance-uuid_ refers to anything other than a pipeline instance.
