Export of files (images)

Squiz Matrix Support

Hi


I need to export all files/folders that are saved within a Matrix 3.12.3 system.



I have all the images saved in a folder structure as:



Images

|

----Folder 1

|

------Image A

------Image B

------Image C

-----Folder 2

|

-----Image D

-----Image E



What I need is the folder structure with all the files/folders exported into the filesystem.



I've not found any export script for this.



Is it possible to do in any way?

Later version of Matrix have an Export Files tool, which can be used to do just what you need. But, I think this started wiht 3.18x.


So, if possible, you might want to look into upgrading.

Thanks for your fast response.


Yes I've read about it. I've not managed to do that trip 3.12.3 -> 3.18.x before and I guess I wont be able to do it now.



There's no other possible way to extract the images?

Does 3.12 support asset listings?


I'm thinking between an asset listing just listing image urls + wget used in some recursive fashion you might be able to 'export' them.

Yes, of course it does.

Well I did solve it using YQL and a list of all the folders.


Then cURL downloaded all the files into its corresponding local folder.





That worked quite well.
