Change and deploy DITA-OT parameter settings

[Frank Ralf]

Hi,

We want to change and deploy the DITA-OT parameter settings as they show in a DITA transformation scenario's Parameters tab. Where are these settings stored? Can we add or edit them? And how can they be deployed?

Any pointers welcome.

TIA
Frank

I've already looked at Extending ANT/Java parts of DITA-OT which looks related. Am I on the right track?

Hi Frank,

I'm not sure what exactly you want. What do you mean that you want to deploy them? Do you want to share them with other users?
The DITA transformation scenario is an Oxygen-specific way of keeping information about what parameters and properties the user wants to apply when running the DITA Open Toolkit.
If your transformation scenarios are stored at global level, you can go to the Options menu -> Export Global Transformation Scenarios and obtain an XML representation with the entire list of global scenarios. You also have the possibility in the same Options menu to import global transformation scenarios from an XML document.

If your scenarios are saved at project level, you can open the projectName.xpr project configuration file and see the same list of scenarios serialized as XML in it.
If you give the project configuration file to someone else and he loads it in his Project view, he will have the same scenarios available.
