Application Programming Interface

The API provides programmatic access to the data export and import functionality.


Dependencies
  • jailer-engine-version.jar (MVN-Repository, also included in jailer-version.zip)
    • If you are not using a dependency management system, add the required jar-files in the lib/ directory to the class path manually.

Classes
Example

The example is included in the sources. It extracts some data from the "demo-scott" database and imports it into another database "demo-scott-subset".
