=====
|
|
|
|
This release has one important change. You need to act when
|
|
upgrading from a previous version!
|
|
|
|
This release changes the database system from MongoDB to
|
|
SQL(alchemy). If you want to setup a fresh instance, just
|
|
follow the instructions in the deployment chapter. If on
|
|
the other hand you want to continue to use one instance,
|
|
read on.
|
|
|
|
To convert our data from MongoDB to SQL(alchemy), you need
|
|
to follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Make sure your MongoDB is still running and has your
|
|
data, it's needed for the conversion.
|
|
|
|
2. Configure the sql_engine URI in the config to represent
|
|
your target database (see: Deployment docs)
|
|
|
|
3. You need an empty database.
|
|
|
|
4. Then run the following command::
|
|
|
|
bin/gmg [-cf mediagoblin_config.ini] convert_mongo_to_sql
|
|
|
|
5. Start your server and investigate.
|
|
|
|
6. That's it.
