Overview

Lianja Package Files (.lpk) are used to package up Apps, databases and Library files to transfer to another Lianja App Builder installation.

For information on packaging your Apps for user deployment, see Deployment.

How to create a package file

You create packages in the Deploy worksurface.

Select the data, Apps and Library files as you would to deploy them.

Note: if your files have been added to a Lianja Project, just tick the checkbox next to the Project name, and all its files will be selected.

Click the Build Package button in the headerbar and enter the name for your package. There is no need to include the .lpk file extension.


Your package will be created in the drive:\lianja\packages\ directory.


How to install a package file

You install packages in the Apps workspace.

Select the package to install.


The installation progress will be displayed in the Console workspace and you will be prompted to confirm if a file will be overwritten.


Note: from Lianja v4.2, you can also install packages using the LPK() function.
