Emptying database after test migration

T
tekojo last edited by

Hi,

I've been working on migrating an existing forum to nodebb and have the last steps left.
I did a working test import and everything looks good.
We are running NodeBB 0.6.1 on Mongo

Now I would like to empty the database from users and discussions, while keeping all the settings I've made. The ACP is not an option, as there are quite a lot of users and discussions.

Is there a simple way to do this?

I had back this problem a 2nd time 2 days ago, I don't know if it's related but I was doing iptables FW settings on the VM, I had nodeBB running, and also redis and from my computer desktop redis desktop manager connected to DB. Then I made a mistake in iptables, blocked all redis port (even local), saying nodebb unable to connect to redis (so as redis desktop manager) then when I openned back 6379 port, all data was gone, not sure if it's related, just an information.

@psychobunny said in Poor migration to NodeBB: We're on top of it First 24 hours post-migration can be pretty stressful but it's starting to look good now, and will only improve over the next few days They got you guys involved? Awesome. I love this platform and would hate to see it get a bad name from a large scale implementation gone wrong.

Hey @mglace -- nice to hear you're looking to migrate! The best way to migrate would be to build your own exporter by forking an existing one... for example the SMF exporter... they work with the importer plugin: https://github.com/akhoury/nodebb-plugin-import Alternative you could use the Write API, although you'd be writing a lot of the one-time logic yourself to migrate users and posts and such, and I don't know offhand of anybody using the Write API quite like that You're on track with the SSO OAuth plugin. DFP should work using the adsense plugin... if not, you can ping @baris for help. Theming NodeBB is one of our strong points, our themes are very customisable. Almost everything can be customised including templates for each page, as well as adding additional styles, etc. Check out the quickstart theme for a shell to start off with
