Fluid Topics publisher (ftpub
) is a tool that can perform the following actions:
- List a portal's available sources.
- Create a ZIP file containing the content to publish.
- Upload a ZIP file through any source.
- Delete documents based on publication metadata.
Intentionally simple and easy to master, ftpub
gives content managers the following new options for designing and implementing publishing workflows:
- Manage the entire publishing workflow via a command-line interface (CLI).
- Integrate the tool into a CI/CD pipeline to automate the publication workflow.
The legacy publishing workflow, which consists in manually compressing files into a single ZIP file, then manually uploading the ZIP file in the Publishing administration interface or calling the Upload content web service, remains available. However, it is no longer necessary when using ftpub
.
