--store-metadata doesn't work #24

Closed jmayday closed 6 years ago

jmayday commented 6 years ago

By some reason I can't force storing metadata when cloning atmos space to filesystem. 

Unrecognized option: --store-metadata
    use --help for a detailed (quite long) list of options

The way I run ecs-sync is as following:

C:\ecs-sync\build\libs>java -jar ecs-sync-3.2.5.jar -source atmos:http:/tokenId@host:port -target file:c:\atms\ecslocal --log-level verbose --store-metadata

Seems like --store-metadata option is not consumed as after modifying source code and recompiling (changing boolean assignment storeMetadata = true in config class) I was able to get metadata persisted on file system.

Well, I'm blind. I didn't notice the prefix requirement for this option.

Can't get the --store-metadata working. 

 NOTE: Storage options must be prefixed by source- or target-, depending on
    which role they assume
--store-metadata                              when used as a target, stores
                                                  source metadata in a json
                                                  file, since filesystems have
                                                  no concept of user metadata

How to use this option?

@jmayday, the option has no value. To use it, simply put --target-store-metadata by itself as an option (do not add =true). Also, always be sure to specify the --source, --filters, and --target options first.
