Safer way of migrating from SQLite to MariaDB #146

Closed chris-fj closed 1 year ago

chris-fj commented 1 year ago

Used a safer way to migrate from SQLite to MariaDB, that doesn't require your db password to be passed around as a parameter but instead, it's taken from stdin.

Thank you very much for your suggestion! I would argue that the insecurity of the command is not much of a problem for home users if the password is "insecure" anyway, i.e. easy to guess. All the security in this case comes from the fact that the database server is not directly accessible from the home network, let alone over the public Internet. Of course, if this is not the case, you cannot work this way, as you should take additional security measures.

I'll close this now that I've updated the docs based on your feedback. If this still isn't acceptable to you, don't hesitate to let me know.
