Duplication

Definition

Shipyard allows users to easily duplicate their Vessels, Fleets, Blueprints. This is commonly used to create slight variations or in lieu of built-in versioning.

Vessels

When a Vessel is duplicated, the following things occur:

1. A new Vessel is immediately created, with the name of {Old Vessel Name} (Copy) {New Vessel ID} .
2. The Code, Arguments, Environment Variables, Packages, Guardrails, and Notifications from the old Vessel are transferred to the new Vessel.

Fleets

When a Fleet is duplicated, the following things occur:

1. A new Fleet is immediately created, with the name of {Old Fleet Name} (Copy) {New Fleet ID} .
2. Every Vessel in the Fleet is recreated with the name of {Old Vessel Name} (Copy) {New Vessel ID}, using the same rules when duplicating a Vessel individually.
3. The Fleet's Triggers are all reset.
4. The new Fleet starts with 0 logs.

Blueprints

When a Blueprint is duplicated, the following things occur:

1. A new Blueprint is immediately created, with the name of {Old Blueprint Name} (Copy) {New Blueprint ID} .
2. The Blueprint Variables, Blueprint Description, Code, Command, Environment Variables, Packages, and Guardrails from the old Blueprint are transferred to the new Blueprint. Effectively, every field gets carried over.
3. The new Blueprint is set to the Hidden visibility.

caution

Pressing duplicate will immediately create a duplicate without you needing to save anything. You will, however, likely want to change a few settings or create a more readable name.

Additional Notes

1. You can't duplicate an instance of a Vessel, Blueprint, or Fleet that has been changed since the last save. You must first click save.
