Installation

Set up your development tools by following the steps in this article:

https://docs.mendix.com/apidocs-mxsdk/mxsdk/setting-up-your-development-environment

Clone the repository to a folder on your local pc and then open the folder in a command prompt.

Install project dependencies by running the following command

npm install

Configuration

In the src folder, create a file config.json (see config.json.example for a sample).

auth

{
    "auth" : {
        "username":"",
        "apikey":""
    }
    ...
}

auth.username: Your Mendix login (i.e. your email address)

auth.apikey: An api key that you have generated for your Mendix login (not a project api key)

project

{
    ...
    "project":{
        "id":"",
        "name":"",
        "branch": ""
    }
    ...
}

project.id: The id of your project

project.name: The name of your project

project.branch: The name of the branch you want to use (or empty string for the main line)

Run the script

Compile and run the script by running the following command:

npm start

The script will do the following:

• create a folder called 'out' if it doesn't already exist
• create a folder named after the project. If one already exists the script will exit.
• iterate over every ModuleSecurity and ModuleDocument object and store them in module specific sub folders under the project.
