The Tools module provides an app and some commands useful for manipulating repository content. The app, known as Repository Tools, can be found under the Tools menu of admincentral.

= Module artifacts have changed

Please note that the artifact IDs (Maven groupId and artifactId) have changed since Magnolia 5.5.

If you have custom Java code relying on this module, you need to install a compatibility module too.

Installing with Maven

Bundled modules are automatically installed for you.

If the module is unbundled, add the following to your bundle including your project’s <dependencyManagement> section and your webapp’s <dependencies> section. If the module is unbundled but the version is managed by the parent POM, add the following to your webapp’s <dependencies> section.

<dependency>
  <groupId>info.magnolia.tools</groupId>
  <artifactId>magnolia-tools</artifactId>
  <version>1.9.3</version> (1)
</dependency>
1 Should you need to specify the module version, do it using <version>.

Note the changes in groupId and artifactId since the 1.9 release.

Compatibility module

We have been gradually removing the old Content API from our modules since Magnolia 5.6. If you have custom code relying on classes from the old tools module then you must do one of two things:

  • Update your code for the new version of the tools module.

  • Or you can use the magnolia-tools-compatibility module together with the magnolia-core-compatibility module.

With Maven:

Add the following snippet to your POM file:

<dependency>
  <groupId>info.magnolia.tools</groupId>
  <artifactId>magnolia-tools-compatibility</artifactId>
  <version>1.9.3</version> (1)
</dependency>
1 Should you need to specify the module version, do it using <version>.
