Config ANT Tasks
AuraConfigLiteResource Task
This task can be used to in multiple modes. It can used to commit changes, get report of the changes and run sync operation against the environment. You will supply all connection details as the attributes, in addition you need to set the auraconfiglite resource XML file location.
operationMode is sync For operation mode sync, auraconfiglite will compare the resources in the Aura Config Lite resources XML file and resources on the target Server. It will produce a report highlighting all the resources that are different, all the resources that not configured on the target environment and also all the resources and attributes that are not configured in the auraconfiglite resources XML file. auraconfiglite will produce new auraconfiglite xml resources file with all the missing and new resources.
operationMode is normal For operation mode normal, auraconfiglite will parse the resource XML file. Replace tokens in the file with values from the properties file supplied. auraconfiglite will produce html report of all the changes applied. The format of the report is similar to the compare report. The changes applied will be highlighted.
operationMode is reportOnly For operation mode reportOnly, auraconfiglite will implement same logic as in normal except changes will not be commited. This gives you an option to check what changes will be implemented if you run in normal mode.
