Restore collection

If you want to restore a collection you can use the restore-collection.r tool from the yoda-ruleset. The tool is located at /etc/irods/yoda-ruleset/tools/restore-collection.r

The tool accepts the following parameters:

Parameter	Description
path	Path to collection to restore
timestamp	UNIX timestamp, restore collection to revision from before this timestamp
restorePath	Path to restore the collection to, empty if you want to restore in the same collection

Examples:

irule -r irods_rule_engine_plugin-irods_rule_language-instance -F restore-collection.r "*path='/tempZone/home/research-test'" "*timestamp=1540819891"

Restore the collection /tempZone/home/research-test with revision before 1540819891 (Mon Oct 29 14:31:31 2018 CET).

irule -r irods_rule_engine_plugin-irods_rule_language-instance -F restore-collection.r "*path='/tempZone/home/research-test'" "*timestamp=1540819891" "*restorePath='/tempZone/home/research-test/restore'"

Restore the collection /tempZone/home/research-test with revision before 1540819891 (Mon Oct 29 14:31:31 2018 CET) into collection /tempZone/home/research-test/restore.
