In the case that data needs to be migrated from one database installation to another, the following procedure can be used to export data, initialize the new database, and re-import the data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Export Data
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``python3 manage.py dumpdata --exclude contenttypes --exclude auth.permission --indent 2 > data.json``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This will export all data (including user information) to a json data file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Initialize Database
|
||
|
|
-------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Configure the new database using the normal processes (see `Getting Started <start.html>`_):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``python3 manage.py makemigrations``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``python3 manage.py migrate --run-syncdb``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Import Data
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The new database should now be correctly initialized with the correct table structures requried to import the data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``python3 manage.py loaddata data.json``
|
