Import Redis

Overview​

Import a Redis database from your current setup into a Cloudron app.

Cloudron uses Redis' RDB persistence format for point-in-time snapshots. Create a dump file in your existing Redis installation by sending the SAVE command to import the RDB.

Import​

  1. Stop the app using the stop button in the Console section. This also stops the dependent Redis container.
  1. Identify the app's ID from the Updates section.
  1. Copy the Redis dump file via SCP. Replace server-ip with your server's IP address and use your app's ID:
$ scp dump.rdb root@server-ip:/home/yellowtent/platformdata/redis/85a26cdf-3858-4784-b2c1-6ddb9c37e5b9/dump.rdb
dump.rdb                                                                                                  100%   692     4.8KB/s   00:00

  1. Open a Web Terminal using the Terminal button in the Console section.
