SCROLLKEEPER-UPDATE(8)SCROLLKEEPER-UPDATE(8)NAME
scrollkeeper-update - identify new, modified, or removed OMF files and
update the scrollkeeper databases
SYNOPSIS
scrollkeeper-update [ -v ] [ -p database-directory ] [ -o omf-directo‐
ries ]
DESCRIPTION
This synchronizes the scrollkeeper database with the OMF directory. It
searches the scrollkeeper OMF directory to identify if any files were
added, removed, or modified and updates its internal database files to
reflect any changes.
This utility is generally executed as the last step of installation,
after the OMF file is copied into place. It is also typically the last
step of uninstallation, after the OMF file is removed. Using this, an
administrator can easily manually install and uninstall documents into
the database. It can also be run to guarantee the database is fully
up-to-date.
OPTIONS-v Be verbose: Say which scrollkeeper-install and scrollkeeper-
uninstall commands are being run to bring the database up to
date.
-p database-directory
Use database-directory as the directory for the scrollkeeper
database rather than the usual one obtained by running omf-con‐
fig --pkglocalstatedir.
-o omf-directories
Examine the directories named in omf-directories rather than the
one usual one obtained by running scrollkeeper-config --omfdir.
The omf-directories can be a colon-separated list of directo‐
ries.
ENVIRONMENT
OMF_DIR
If no -o option is specified, this variable overrides the scrol‐
lkeeper-config-provided OMF directory. It too can be a colon-
separated list of directories.
