Q: PostgreSQL viewing/administration
We now know that Final Cut Server uses PostgreSQL for the database and that it's available on port 5443 (I think).
Two questions:
1. How can I connect to the database?
2. Has anyone tried to install phpPgAdmin into the Final Cut Server installation to check and review the database?
Also, separate but semi-related question from an administration standpoint...
Where is the documentation on importing/exporting XML definitions of assets in Final Cut Server?
I have to web-enable the Final Cut Server installation and am looking for resources on how I might go about this. I think there was a ruby/php driven web interface that was demoed at NAB but that it's currently unavailable and is an internal Apple project (why would that be... Artbox had some of those capabilities already?!).
Anyway, if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. There's no documentation on the low level capabilities of Final Cut Server (command-line, XML handling, etc.).
cheers,
jon
