I figured it out myself, and indeed, with hindsight what seemed daunting
initially turned out to be quite simple.
Just in case another OFBiz newbie should be interested in exporting
orders automagically, here's what I did:
I decided to export the orders one by one producing an XML file just
like the Webtools XML export. Each export file is named after the
orderId and placed in ${ofbiz.home}\data\sync\orders from where Unison
or whatever can beam it to wherever it is going to be imported.
I created a service which exports an order when it is approved.
1) applications\order\entitydef\eecas.xml
define eca:
<eca entity="OrderHeader" operation="create-store" event="return">
<condition field-name="statusId" operator="equals"
value="ORDER_APPROVED"/>
<action service="exportOrder" mode="sync"/>
</eca>
2) applications\product\servicedef\services_facility.xml
define service:
<service name="exportOrder" engine="java" require-new-transaction="true"
max-retry="3" location="org.ofbiz.order.order.OrderServices"
invoke="exportOrder">
<description>Export Order to XML</description>
<attribute name="orderId" type="String" mode="IN" optional="false"/>
</service>
3) applications\order\src\org\ofbiz\order\OrderServices.java
write method orderExport, which does the actual export
Maybe the above is just a fudge rather than a solution but for the time
being it works for me.
