NAME

       datalad  export-archive-ora  - export an archive of a local annex object store for the ORA
       remote.

SYNOPSIS

       datalad export-archive-ora [-h] [-d DATASET] [--version] TARGET ...

DESCRIPTION

       Keys in the local annex object store are reorganized in a temporary directory (using links
       to  avoid  storage  duplication)  to  use  the  the  directory-type  special  remote. This
       alternative object store is then moved into a 7zip archive that is suitable for use  in  a
       ORA remote dataset store. Placing such an archive into::

       <dataset location>/archives/archive.7z

       Enables the ORA special remote to locate and retrieve all keys contained in the archive.

OPTIONS

       TARGET if  an existing directory, an 'archive.7z' is placed into it, otherwise this is the
              path to the target archive. Constraints: value must be a string

       list of options for 7z to replace the default '-mx0' to generate an uncompressed archive.

       -h, --help, --help-np
              show this help message. --help-np forcefully  disables  the  use  of  a  pager  for
              displaying the help message

       -d DATASET, --dataset DATASET
              specify  the  dataset  to  process.  If  no dataset is given, an attempt is made to
              identify the dataset based on the current  working  directory.  Constraints:  Value
              must be a Dataset or a valid identifier of a Dataset (e.g. a path)

       --version
              show the module and its version which provides the command
