Working with Primary keys using the ZyINDEX Import utility

SYMPTOMS

With the ZyINDEX Import utility command line utility you can move or copy one or more files to a
designated index or upload them to a index at a website.

You can specify fields which should be set in on the document(s) in the index.

In order to apply Primary keys and reserve a Primary key for a future document (combined with fields) you can use a command line argument.

CAUSE

Not Applicable

RESOLUTION

You can specify a file by name (-f "filename") or by Primary key value (-key "prim key value").
Subsequently you can also specify a file by Primary key value, or couple a file to a Primary key value by using the command line argument: -k

The applicable scenarios are:

Reserve a Primary key ("123") for a future document, combined with fields:
ZyIndexImport -q -i C:\Indexes\Index1 -k 123 -v "id=123" -v "field1=A Value"

Update fields for a document which does not exist yet:
ZyIndexImport -q -i C:\Indexes\Index1 -k 123 -v "field1=Another Value"

Bind a file to the Primary key:
ZyIndexImport -q -i C:\Indexes\Index1 -v "id=123" -f "C:\Data\TestFile.txt"

In addition you can also update field values for a document:
ZyIndexImport -q -i C:\Indexes\Index1 -k 123 -v "field1=Again another Value"
