tarball download
Hello Group,
How can I make a tarball out of the source code in the Tags folder. If I try
checking oout/Export the source code, it takes along while for the files to
transfer.
I wanted to know if there was a svn command to create a tarball of the tag
folders.
Thanks for any help.

I was looking at the websvn's dl.php, It creates a tarball using php I
guess. Since we have php installed on the server could we some how use the
same code to create a tarball on the servers file system and then move the
file to another environment.
Thanks
Here's the code
// Get the name of the directory being archived
$arcname = substr($path, 0, -1);
$arcname = basename($arcname);
if (empty($arcname))
$arcname = $rep->name;
$svnrep->exportDirectory($path, $tmpname.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$arcname,
$rev);
// Create the tar file
chdir($tmpname);
exec($config->tar." -cf $arcname.tar $arcname");
// ZIP it up
exec($config->gzip." $arcname.tar");
$size = filesize("$arcname.tar.gz");
// Give the file to the browser
if ($fp = @fopen("$arcname.tar.gz","rb"))
{
header("Content-Type: application/x-gzip");
header("Content-Length: $size");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=\"".$rep->name."-$arcname.tar.gz\"");
// Use a loop to transfer the data 4KB at a time.
while(!feof($fp))
{
echo fread($fp, 4096);
ob_flush();
}
}

Well I've only been thinking about it so far. The viewvc python code
looks simple enough, but tar source code is much more complex. I
haven't looked at svn's export implementation yet - so, still at the
stage of scoping the work. But I expect the command would look
something like
svntar -cvf release5.tar svn://localhost/repos/projectname
Or for my purposes, exporting to stdout tar:
svntar -cvf - svn://localhost/repos/projectname
Anyway, like I said, its just an idea I have :-)
Nick.

Nick,
What is the command to export and convert it to a tarball at the same time.
will the command look like this??
tar -vccf release5.tar svn export svn://localhost/repos/projectname
Thanks

Yes and no :-) It would be possible to take the code from "export" and
meld it with the code from "tar". As the data comes in from the repo,
you can then write it straight out to a tar file, rather than to
individual files.
viewvc seems to do exactly this - with python code, using the python
bindings. I've been thinking about writing something similar in C.
viewvc for me fails, because it doesn't support authz. I like WebSVN,
but its tarball feature is broken in several ways. An svntar command,
would make WebSVN tarball download much better.

Not that I've seen.
This command would need to do an export of the files in the first place anyway.
