Missing config.json - Githubissues

hoang-minhhieu commented 5 years ago

Hi Tim @tslater2006 ,

I sent you a message on LinkedIn. When i run the program, it says the system could not find the file config.json. Can you please show me how to resolve this problem?

Best regards, Minh

Hey there, depending on the version of Pivet you are running you should be able to run it with "pivet.exe -b" to enter a config builder mode, this is a guided mode for building out a config.json, it will ask you questions, and you answer and at the end you'll have a config.json next to your pivet executable.

Hey thank you for reply me back, I ran it on Visual Studio and it went straight to this error. I don't usually work with .NET so do i have to use CLI to run "dotnet build" "pivet.exe -b" or i can still use VS to compile?

Hello again, So i figured it out how to run it. But there are multiples questions that i really don't know how to answer. In the end i have Unhandle exception: SQL command not properly ended Do you have any tuto/document how to use the program? Have a nice day and thank you for any help you can offer

If you could provide me the questions you aren't sure about I'd be happy to explain them in further detail

I have a lot of questions:

Do you have a list of all definitions supported by Pivet?
Can Pivet export Records definitions? We are planning to create 1 project for each definition type and Copy To File but we have a problem with Records. When you modified the PeopleCode of an item on record, the XML exported does not included the new code.
Is there an easy way to find your Operator ID?
What is a message catalog range? How do i know which value should i put there?

Hi Tim @tslater2006, Thank you for this project.

I downloaded this project, installed dotnet-sdk-3.0.100-win-x64.exe built it, via: dotnet restore dotnet build -c Release -f netcoreapp3.0

added a TNS_ADMIN system environmental variable (windows) C:\app\client\artisd\product\12.2.0\client_64bit\network\admin

I'm trying to utilize this project but I'm having a problem connecting to the db.

What is the correct db url/connection format for an oracle db?

I used pivet.exe -b to build the following information into my config.json file

C:\Users\artisd\Documents\work\pivet\Pivet\Pivet\bin\Release\netcoreapp3.0>pivet.exe -b No configuration file found, would you like to create a new one?

Then I added a job, in what I think is the correct format for JSON.

@alexei2001 this is an oversight on my part, the -b flag hasn't been properly updated to match the correct format of the config.json. There has been some refactoring of the config file and the builder isn't in sync with it yet.

For the time being please grab a copy of the sample-config included on releases: https://github.com/tslater2006/Pivet/releases/download/0.2/sample-config.json

And adjust the things you need to. For the passwords you can run pivet -e to get the password encryption utility and put the encrypted versions in the config file.

Please let me know if this helps.

Also, looking at the config you pasted, unless you are wanting to push the git repo to somehwere (github, bitbucket, gitlab etc) leave the 'Url" and "User", and "EncryptedPassword" fields blank for the Repository. Also I would recommend you have CommitByOprid set to false, not all definitions support commiting by OPRID and it makes the git history a bit more complicated.

CommitByOprid will commit changes as the last update oprid on certain definitions (ppc,html,sql for example) this isn't always accurately attributing changes in a situation where multiple people have touched 1 file between runs.

@alexei2001 your TNS_ADMIN field looks incorrect. the \ need to be escaped:

"TNS_ADMIN": "C:\app\client\artisd\product\12.2.0\client_64bit\network\admin",

should be

"TNS_ADMIN": "C:\\app\\client\\artisd\\product\\12.2.0\\client_64bit\\network\\admin",
