I have exported the database collections to setup a production environment for my application.
Importing all collection went just well.
Now I have to import the exported files collection.
How can I import all files at once ?
Hello Joni,
Unfortunately you can upload them only one by one.
This is the image id from the backup:
1a2e5eae-5451-4826-85a9-d942084b2827.bradpitt.jpg
Bellow is the id created from the import process:
e000eb03-50e7-41f2-aa8c-a222e2bf8c89.1a2e5eae-5451-4826-85a9-d942084b2827.bradpitt.jpg
How can we solve this problem.
I think images import process should keep the same id, other wise we could loose the image reference associated in other colletcions...or this is not true ?
Hello Joni,
Appery.io generates file names automatically, so it is impossible to keep them after importing files (also from the backup). Yes, in that case you can lost all you DB relations.
Hmmm... it should import like when you import a user collection.
Workaround ?
The workaround is:
Use a script, which gets a file list from the collection "files".
It should read all rows which use files and updates them with a new filename
Thanks Sergiy. I will give a try and let you know the results.
