Migrating legacy Page field (ezflow) to Landing Page (Enterprise= )

=20

To move your legacy Page field / eZ Flow configuration to eZ Platform En= terprise Edition you can use a script that will aid in the migration proces= s.

The script will automatically migrate only data =E2=80=93 to move c= ustom views, layouts, blocks etc., you will have to provide their business = logic again.

The migration script will operate on your current database.

Make sure to back up your database in case of an unexpe= cted error.

To use the script, do the following:

Make a note of the paths to .ini files which define your legacy blocks. You= will need these paths later.

1. Add ezflow-migration-toolkit to c= omposer.json in your clean Platform installation.

composer.json

=20

"ezsystems/ezflow-migration-toolkit": "^1.0.0"

=20

2. Add ezflow-migration-toolkit to A= ppKernel.php.

AppKernel.php

=20

new EzSystems\EzFlowMigrationToolkitBundle\EzSystemsEzFlowMigration=
ToolkitBundle()

=20

3. Clear cache.

=20

app/console cache:clear

=20

4. Run the script with the following parameters:

absolute path of your legacy application
list of .ini files which define your legacy blocks

Script command

=20

app/console ezflow:migrate <legacy path> =E2=80=94ini=3D<b=
lock definitions> [=E2=80=94ini=3D<another block definition> ...]<=
/pre>=20

Example of the migration script command

=20

app/console ezflow:migrate /var/www/legacy.application.com/ =E2=80=
=94ini=3Dextension/myapplication/settings/block.ini.append.php

5. You will be warned about the need to create a backup= of your database. Proceed only if you are sure you have done it.

A MigrationBundle will be generated in the src/ folder.
You will see a report summarizing the results of the migration.
6. Add MigrationBundle to AppKernel.= php. AppKernel.php =20 new MigrationBundle\MigrationBundle()=20 7. Clear cache again. At this point you can already view the initial effects of the migration,= but they will still be missing some of your custom content. The MigrationBundle generates placeholders for layouts in t= he form of frames with a data dump. For blocks that could not be mapped to existing Landing Page blocks, it = will also generate PHP file templates that you need to fill with your own b= usiness logic.
