Export to text file

I've been thinking about this, the idea came up in another issue - but I haven't had a chance to do anything about it yet. It shouldn't be too hard, I have a similar feature in one of my other modules.

In the meantime, you could call the function that does the exporting and make a file thing yourself somehow :/

hmm! there isn't really a nice function for this, a few things will have to change I guess

the code for it would be

  $nids = array(4, 5, 6); // nodes with node ids: 4, 5, and 6.
  foreach ($nids as $nid) {
    $node_codes[] = node_export_node_export(node_load($nid), TRUE, 1);
  }
  $node_code = "array(\n  ". implode(",\n  ", $node_codes) .",\n)";

something like that

In the same boat here. Few thousand nodes to move. Definitely would be a great add-on feature. Firefox tanks pretty hard when copying and pasting anything over about 200 simple nodes.

Awesome module though, thanks for sharing it.

I've added text file support to 6.x-2.17, you just have to turn it on in the config.

Disable the module, delete the module completely, add the new module back, renable.

Thanks for adding this functionality in, we also have a lot of data we're working with and its great to handle it outside of the browser.

I'm getting these errors now that I've upgraded:

Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated in C:\Drupal-6.14\sites\all\modules\node_export\node_export.module on line 263

thanks

Oh wow, that's awesome!! I wish I'd checked this thread sooner... I just finished my import (copy and paste style) this afternoon. Doh! : ) I'll have to keep it in mind for future use though. Thanks again danielb.
