Gentics Mesh - Import / Export project from one instance to another

Question

Gentics Mesh Version: v1.4.8

Question:

Is it possible to export a specific project with all the schemas/micro-schemas definition associated to it and the all nodes contribute from one instance of Gentics mesh and to import to another one?

What I would like to achieve is to export a project with its data from Gentics Mesh instance A (dev) to another Gentics Mesh instance B (prod).

What I've tried:

I tried to export/import using the API described (export/import). The export from instance A seems to be fine, generating this gzip json file. I'm placing this file into the instance B at location /data/export and launching the import. The logs seems OK. However as soon as I access the interface, I keep getting an infinite loop of pop up error message (because of 404s).

If I'm not getting wrong, the export feature is exporting the all content of the graphDB? Is there a way to export only a part of it? Like a specific project. If this feature doesn't exist, what should I custom implement in order to achieve this?

Partial import/export is currently not possible. We are already tracking this feature request via https://github.com/gentics/mesh-incubator/issues/77
