Package creation from Workflow

Question

Hi,

Want to know if we can create the packages from the Workflows. I know there is a standard document available :-

https://helpx.adobe.com/campaign/kb/export-packages-automatically.html

But need more inputs on how the code works and how can I use the code.

Thanks,
Adithya

Hello,Here is an example of JS code that generate a package as XML File :var packageName  = "myPackage";//export delivery with internalName 'DM123456'var schema = "nms:delivery";var conditionExpression = "@internalName = 'DM123456'";specFileDef = {  specFile : {    definition : {      schema : schema,      where : {        condition : [{            "expr" : conditionExpression          }]        }      }      }  };var specFile =  NLWS.xtkSpecFile.create( specFileDef );//Package generationvar package = specFile.GenerateDoc();//Save content in a filevar packageBuffer = new MemoryBuffer();packageBuffer.fromString ( package.toXMLString() );//File name with date included :packageBuffer.save(  packageName + "_" + formatDate( new Date(), "%4y%2M%2D") + ".xml" );The package will be the same as if you export with the console.

Hi,

Use a js activity with the code from that doc page.

Here's a simplified example from a library I wrote once that managed packaging and vcs:

      var selectionExport = xtk.specFile.exportSelection(schema, <where>
        <condition expr={condition}/>
      </where>);
      var f = new File(filepath);
      f.open('w');
      f.writeln('<package buildNumber="' + buildNumber + '" buildVersion="' + buildVersion + '">');
      f.writeln(selectionExport.entities.toXMLString());
      f.writeln('</package>');
      f.close();

The exportSelection() endpoint is in xtk:package.js btw if you want to see how it works.

Thanks,

-Jon
