Assistenza necessaria per l'esportazione di Discourse

Supporto Migrazione
1

Sono nuovo di Discourse e ho recentemente ereditato la proprietà/amministrazione di una piccola e vecchia community su Discourse. Una delle cose che devo fare è esportare i contenuti della community: discussioni, risposte, endorsement, associazioni (autore, partecipanti), ecc., in formato CSV, XML o JSON.

In quanto neofita della piattaforma, come posso procedere per garantire la sicurezza di questa esportazione? Ho eseguito un backup del sito, ma non riesco a fare nulla con il file SQL contenuto nell’archivio tar.gz che ho ricevuto.

Attualmente sono sul piano Standard.

Grazie!

(Aggiornato per specificare che la mia community è su Discourse.)

The first thing to do is search “howto YOUR_OLD_COMMUNITY_SOFTWARE”. Then you look in discourse/script/import_scripts at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub. If you are coming from some platform that isn’t supported, the best course of action is to start with one of the existing import scripts. vbulletin might be a good starting point. If that’s not your style, then you can post in Marketplace. I generally do a few of these a month.

If you are coming from a popular forum, you can switch to the business plan, pay for a year up front, and get it done for free.

EDIT: @Charles.Dane Since you are using Discourse already, this is what you need to do:

Just download a backup and restore it to your new site.

You’ll need to contact support and have them restore it.

Hi Jay, appreciate for the response.

I just updated my post to specify the community I’ve inherited is already on Discourse.

Thanks for the advice to take a look at GitHub, I’ll see what I can find over there.

Cheers!

What do you want to accomplish with this?

Thanks for the response. My organization is in the process of investigating community platform options, and a review of the community’s content (in one of the three formats) will help us determine our overall scope of effort.

So your have some tool that you want to use to…somehow analyze the data in discourse? What is that tool? What is the analysis that you want to do?

If you absolutely need a database dump in XML/CSV or JSON, why not download a backup and then convert it?

There are many tutorials online:

The process would be

  1. Download backup
  2. Extract backup
  3. Load backup into local postgres database
  4. Export the tables you wish to export as CSV/JSON or XML
