Node:Using publishing qualifiers, Next:Using touch and find, Previous:Publish qualifiers, Up:Publishing a Website
The simpliest way to use WebPublish is to let the utility select
the entire website for publication. When WebPublish selects the
entire website for publication, each file in the local copy of
the website is examined to see if it is current on the remote
server. Any files and directories that are not current on the
server will be transferred by WebPublish. The following example
will select the entire personal
account's website for
publication.
webpublish --publish -a personal
If you only want to publish jpg
files, then you can use the
-extension (-e
) qualifier. The --extension
qualifier will tell
WebPublish to select the files with the specified file extension.
The following example will publish all of the jpg
files in the
personal
account.
webpublish --publish -a personal -e jpg
The -directory (-d
) qualifier can be used to select a
subdirectory in the account's website to publish. The specified
directory and all of its subdirectories will be selected for
publication. The following example will publish the
books/biography
directory in the personal
account.
webpublish --publish -a personal -d books/biography
The -depth (-D
) qualifier can be used to limit the number of
subdirectories that are published. If you only want to publish the
files that are in the books directory, for example, you can use
the following:
webpublish --publish -a personal -D 1 -d books
The example above will tell WebPublish to publish the single
directory level that begins at the directory books
.
