Make a submission backup #46

Closed verndrade closed 4 years ago

verndrade commented 4 years ago

Write an admin service to export the submissions metadata to a programmatic form (like JSON) which can re-make the submissions in case of deletion or corruption

current workaround: go to heroku dashboard console python manage.py shell >> dump.txt import models and iterate through model.objects.all() and print them (they will go into dump.txt) after all are printed exit the shell clone a git repo which you can add the dump file to add dump.txt to the repo, commit, and push access the repo in github to see the dump

Probably could have everything be downloaded through a button on the admin console, but I wanted to find the most convoluted way of doing it 🤡

@verndrade in the future: python manage.py dumpdata >> db.json
