[SoaS] Location of Turtle Blocks snapshots within directory structure?

[bodosugar]

Thank you. That'd be exactly what I need. I can easily find the uid (object
identifier) for the journal entry I want--i.e., the one created by Turtle
Block's "Save snapshot" option.

Would you please point me to whatever info/doc is available on those cmd
line utilities you mentioned? I just need to read an object (e.g., given its
uid) out of the datastore and write it to regular file(s). Plus the reverse
operation: given such file(s), create a new object in the datastore.

It seems conceptually simple. Of all the metadata I see for a TB snapshot,
all attrs could remain unchanged after recreating the object--except for the
uid. But I'm having trouble writing the code because I've no experience with
asynchronous D-Bus calls, so any existent code would be a huge help.

About running a persistent image: that would only solve some problems. I
still wouldn't be able to recover from various crashes or to take my work
over to other computers/VMs. This solution I'm pursuing, albeit messy, is
powerful enough to do the job.

Cheers,
