Possible to move install from Ubuntu to Docker container?

sdjaime · March 25, 2015, 1:45am

I know the wiki entry “Backup and Restore” walks through a migration within the same OS (and ultimately requiring the same paths), but what if the appdata directory needs to change? I’m trying to keep my old database/settings, but the old Ubuntu install has my appdata directory under my user’s home directory, and in the Docker container, it’s under /config.

So I guess my question is, can I edit the database as I migrate and do a find & replace all with the old/new appdata paths? If so, is the db SQLite?

Thanks!

The AppData path is determined at run time, if thats the only thing thats changing you don’t need to do anything except restore the DB to the new AppData location.
