Generating a publication from the Windows command line

Generate a publication by running the Publish tool with the -build switch.

Procedure

  1. Confirm that the directory configured as a value of the ExtraConfig directive in your publication configuration file contains the parser configuration file.

    For example, S1000D.xml should be in the templates\conf\system\ subdirectory of your LiveContent S1000D home directory.

  2. Navigate to the templates\conf\ subdirectory of your LiveContent S1000D home directory.
  3. Run the following command:
    LiveContentPublish.exe -build CONFIGURATION

    where CONFIGURATION is the name of a configuration file from which to build a LiveContent S1000D publication.

    The command line tool creates a new publication, deleting previously generated data in that output directory. The source_xml\, figures\ and multimedia\ subfolders of the output directory are not modified.
