Export mappings through OMB plus

Question

Hi All,
We have developed 125 mappings across 10 modules. I wanted all mappings .Mdl files separately (E.g : we have mapping names are abc and xyz… we need to mdl file abc.mdl and xyz.mdl).
If I export mappings in Design Center mapping wise it will take alot of to complete/get individual scripts (.mdl)
I heard for time consuming and security wise we should use OMB plus.
Any one helps me to export mappings individually through OMB.
Is there any way to pass mapping name should export the mapping with log file?
Thanks and Regards
Venkat

Answer 1

OK, here is a script that you will be able to adapt get you to where you want to go. Bear in mind that it uses a config file to hold some variables, and library file which I shall also attach.
This script isn't exaclty what you are asking, but it's pretty close. The reason I made this script was to be able to create a clone of an existing project through OMB+ becuase in our corporate dev environment I couldn't lock down the repository in exclusive mode to do this in a simple copy/paste. The script uses a bit of a work-around because the MDL files include full path names, meaning if you export from project A it will want to import into project A. So if I want to import them into project B I take the existing project A, rename it to the desired new name (B), do the export (on a per-unit basis as you want), then rename the existing project back to what it was (A), create the new empty project (B) and import the objects now that the naming structures will match. (whew - did you catch all that?)
Anyway, here is the script. It uses standard TCL for a lot of the file stuff (glob etc), and for cycling through the modules and objects using the TCL foreach statement. Don't worry about the functions you don't recognize like exec_omb. They are in the library (coming up next), which just has to be colocated with the script for the script to reference at runtime:
