RPLib – reconcilepost

RPLib.reconcilepost(Workspace=None, log_folder=None, versions=None, parent_version=None, delete_version=True, all_versions=True, acquire_locks=True, abort_if_conflicts=True, by_object=True, favor_target=True, post=True)

Reconciles a version or multiple versions against a target version.

Parameter	Type	Description	Required
Workspace	String	Path to SDE connection file.	Yes
log_folder	String	Path to folder where log file(s) will be stored.	Yes
versions	List	List of version names to be reconciled and posted.	No
parent_version	String	The geodatabase, or version of a geodatabase, which owns the version(s). None = “sde.default” (Default) “” = “sde.default”	No
delete_version	Boolean	Indicates if versions will be deleted after posting to target version. True = Delete version after posting to target version. (Default) False = Keep version after posting to target version.	No
all_versions	Boolean	Determines which versions will be reconciled when the tool is executed. True = Reconciles edit versions with the target version. (Default) False = Reconciles versions that are blocking the target version from compressing.	No
acquire_locks	Boolean	Determines whether feature locks will be acquired. True = Should be used when the intention is to post edits. (Default) False = Should be used when the edit version will not be posted to the target version.	No
abort_if_conflicts	Boolean	Reconcile will be aborted if conflicts are found between versions. True = Aborts the reconcile if conflicts are found. (Default) False = Does not abort the reconcile if conflicts are found.	No
by_object	Boolean	Describes the conditions required for a conflict to occur. True = Any changes to the same row or feature in the parent and child versions will conflict during reconcile. (Default) False = Only changes to the same attribute of the same row or feature in the parent and child versions will be flagged as a conflict during reconcile. Changes to different attributes will not be considered a conflict during reconcile.	No
favor_target	Boolean	Describes the behavior if a conflict is detected. True = Resolve in favor of the target version. (Default) False = Resolve in favor of the edit version.	No
post	Boolean	Posts the current edit session to the reconciled target version. True = Version will be posted to the target version after the reconcile. (Default) False = Version will not be posted to the target version after the reconcile.	No

Returns: Boolean

Usage

• Only works with enterprise geodatabases.
• The reconcile process requires that you have full permissions to all the feature classes that have been modified in the version being edited.
• The reconcile process detects differences between the edit version and the target version and flags these differences as conflicts. If conflicts exist, they should be resolved.
• After running the reconcile process successfully with, all_versions = True, all vesions in the geodatabase will appear the same.

Example 1

Simple call with all parameters specified.

import RPLib

sdeOwner = "C:/GIS/SDEADMIN@GIS.sde"

RPLib.reconcilepost(sdeOwner,"C:/TESTGIS","","sde.DEFAULT",True,True,True,True,True,True,True)

Example 2

Simple call with only required parameters specified.

import RPLib

sdeOwner = "C:/GIS/SDEADMIN@GIS.sde"

RPLib.reconcilepost(sdeOwner,"C:/TESTGIS")

Example 3

If Else logic with all parameters specified.

import RPLib

sdeOwner = "C:/GIS/SDEADMIN@GIS.sde"

if RPLib.reconcilepost(sdeOwner,"C:/TESTGIS","","sde.DEFAULT",True,True,True,True,True,True,True):
    print("successful, run another tool")
else:
    print("failed, run another tool")

Example 4

Notice you do not need to specify these parameters because by default:

• versions = None - Will gather all versions for the connection file used
• parent_version = “sde.default”
• delete_version = True
• all_versions = True
• acquire_locks = True
• abort_if_conflicts = True
• by_object = True
• favor_target = True
• post = True

import RPLib

sdeOwner = "C:/GIS/SDEADMIN@GIS.sde"

if RPLib.reconcilepost(sdeOwner,"C:/TESTGIS"):
    print("successful, run another tool")
else:
    print("failed, run another tool")
