Is it possible to backup and transfer ? #75

Closed lucius100 closed 7 months ago

If I were to change my vps, is it possible to backup and transfer it into other vps ? I was using docker container.

Also, I read on docs that it doesn't store original image, what is the default image convert configuration it's using ? I mean like quality,etc, since I can't find it in the docs, and it doesn't retain original images, I think it do some conversion on upload ?

It by default converts the image into raw pixel data, so technically no image data is lost there.

But anyways, if you want to transfer your setup you need to transfer the docker volume of the database to the new machine. If that is done everything should just work.
