[Also see: Upgrading Synology with Wekan quay images](https://github.com/wekan/wekan/issues/3874#issuecomment-867526249)

Note: Do not run `docker compose down` because it could delete data. https://docs.docker.com/compose/reference/down/

[docker-compose.yml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wekan/wekan/master/docker-compose.yml)

This presumes your Wekan Docker is currently running with:
```bash
docker compose up -d
```
Backup to directory dump:
```bash
docker stop wekan-app
docker exec wekan-db rm -rf /data/dump
docker exec wekan-db mongodump -o /data/dump
docker cp wekan-db:/data/dump .
docker start wekan-app
```
Copy dump directory to other server or to your backup.

# Restore Docker
```bash
docker stop wekan-app
docker exec wekan-db rm -rf /data/dump
docker cp dump wekan-db:/data/
docker exec wekan-db mongorestore --drop --dir=/data/dump
docker start wekan-app
```
# Upgrade Docker Wekan version

1. Check that you use newest [docker-compose.yml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wekan/wekan/refs/heads/main/docker-compose.yml)
   that has for example: `image: ghcr.io/wekan/wekan:latest` . If you have old docker-compose.yml, copy it's settings like ROOT_URL to newest docker-compose.yml.

```bash
docker compose stop
docker rm wekan-app
docker compose up -d
```
2. If you are migrating from Snap to Docker, if there is files at `/var/snap/wekan/common/files` , copy that directory to be at
   docker-compose.yml setting path, for example `export WRITABLE_PATH=/data` , copy files directory to be at `/data/files`
   with same user:group directory recursive permissions that directory data has, for example: `sudo chown -R user:group data`

3. When you open board, if cards or attachments are not visible, click right sidebar / Board Settings / Migrations.
   From there, run most migrations, but not migration about `Restore all from archive`, because it would unarchive cards etc from archive.

# Backup Wekan Snap to directory dump
```bash
sudo snap stop wekan.wekan
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/snap/wekan/current/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
export PATH="/snap/wekan/current/bin:$PATH"
mongodump --port 27019
sudo snap get wekan > snap-settings.sh
```
NOTE for Arch Linux: Use this path instead. [Source](https://github.com/wekan/wekan/issues/3941).
```bash
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH-}:/var/lib/snapd/snap/wekan/current/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
```
username is your /home/username
```bash
sudo chown username:username snap-settings.sh
sudo snap start wekan.wekan
```
Modify snap-settings.sh so that it has commands like:
```bash
sudo snap set wekan root-url='http://localhost'
```
Set snap-settings.sh executeable:
```bash
chmod +x snap-settings.sh
```

# Restore Wekan Snap
```bash
sudo snap stop wekan.wekan
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/snap/wekan/current/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
export PATH="$PATH:/snap/wekan/current/bin"
mongorestore --drop --port 27019
sudo snap start wekan.wekan
./snap-settings.sh
```

# Upgrade WeKan Snap Stable 6.x to newest WeKan Snap Candidate

1. Check that you have enough disk space: `df -h` . Also check size of your data: `sudo du -sh /var/snap/wekan/common` .
2. [Backup Snap](#backup-wekan-snap-to-directory-dump)
3. Move WeKan database common directory content elsewhere:
```
sudo su
snap stop wekan
mkdir /root/common
mv /var/snap/wekan/common/* /root/common/
```
4. Change Snap Stable to Snap Candidate:
```
sudo snap refresh wekan --channel=latest/candidate --amend
```
5. [Restore Snap](#restore-wekan-snap)
6. Copy back files directory, if it is there: `sudo cp -pR /root/common/files /var/snap/wekan/common/`
7. If you use [Caddy](https://github.com/wekan/wekan/blob/main/docs/Webserver/Caddy.md), that is included in WeKan, edit /var/snap/wekan/Caddyfile to new syntax:
```
wekan.yourcompany.com {
        tls {
                load /etc/caddy/certs
                alpn http/1.1
        }
        reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:2000
}
```
This is if you have WeKan Node.js running at port 2000, for example with these settings:
```
sudo snap set wekan root-url='https://wekan.yourcompany.com'
sudo snap set wekan port='2000'
sudo snap set wekan caddy-enabled='true'
sudo snap enable wekan
sudo snap start wekan
```
You can check is caddy, wekan and mongodb running with:
```
sudo snap services
```
If you need to disable WeKan included Caddy, because you have system-wide installed Caddy or other webserver:
```
sudo snap stop wekan.caddy
sudo systemctl disable snap.wekan.caddy
sudo systemctl stop snap.wekan.caddy
```
7. When you open board, if cards or attachments are not visible, click right sidebar / Board Settings / Migrations.
From there, run most migrations, but not migration about `Restore all from archive`, because it would unarchive cards etc from archive.

# If upgrade did not work, going back to WeKan Snap Stable 6.09

This is only if you have old 6.09 common directory at /root/common .

```
sudo su
mkdir /root/common-newest
snap stop wekan
mv /var/snap/wekan/common/* /root/common-newest/
snap start wekan
snap refresh wekan --channel=latest/stable --amend
snap stop wekan
rm -rf /var/snap/wekan/common/*
mv /root/common/* /var/snap/wekan/common/
snap start wekan
./snap-settings.sh
```

# Upgrade Snap manually immediately (usually it updates automatically)

```bash
sudo snap refresh
```

# Backup Wekan Gantt GPLv2 Snap to directory dump
```bash
sudo snap stop wekan-gantt-gpl.wekan
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/snap/wekan-gantt-gpl/current/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
export PATH="$PATH:/snap/wekan-gantt-gpl/current/bin"
mongodump --port 27019
sudo snap get wekan-gantt-gpl > snap-settings.sh
```
username is your /home/username
```bash
sudo chown username:username snap-settings.sh
sudo snap start wekan-gantt-gpl.wekan
```
Modify snap-settings.sh so that it has command like:
```bash
sudo snap set wekan-gantt-gpl root-url='http://localhost'
```
Set snap-settings.sh executeable:
```bash
chmod +x snap-settings.sh
```

# Restore Wekan Gantt GPLv2 Snap
```bash
sudo snap stop wekan-gantt-gpl.wekan
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/snap/wekan-gantt-gpl/current/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

# Scheduled backups to local or remote server

For below scheduled backup scripts, no info from above of this wiki page is required. Backup scripts below have the required settings.

This does backup of [Wekan+RocketChat snap databases](OAuth2) and php website etc.

If you need to backup some remote server or cloud, you can use scp, or read [rclone docs](https://rclone.org/docs/) about how to configure saving to some other remote server or cloud.

The following .sh bash scripts are added as root user to your `/root/` directory.

Backups are created to subdirectories of `/root/backups/`.

Cron is used to schedule backups, for example once a day.

1. To add bash scripts, you change to root user with this command, and your sudo or root password.
```bash
sudo su
```
2. Use nano editor for editing cron. If you don't have it installed, type:
```bash
apt install nano
```
3. Then we set text editor to be nano. Otherwise it probably uses vi, that is harder to use.
```bash
export EDITOR=nano
```
4. Now we start editing cron scheduler. 
```bash
crontab -e
```
For more info how to make cron time, see https://crontab.guru

In this example, we set backups every day at 04:00, then it runs backup.sh script, and saves output of the backup commands to the bottom of textfile backup.log.txt
```bash
# m h  dom mon dow   command
0 4 * * * /root/backup.sh >> /root/backup.log.txt 2>&1
```
- For changing to `/root` directory, type: `cd /root`
- for editing backup.sh file, type: `nano backup.sh`
- For saving in nano, press Ctrl-o Enter
- For exiting nano, press Ctrl-x Enter
- Set every .sh file as executeable, for example: `chmod +x backup.sh`

This is content of `backup.sh` script. It runs all the other backup scripts.
If you do not need to backup rocketchat or website, or do not need to use rclone,
you don't need to add those command lines at all.
```bash
cd /root
./backup-wekan.sh
./backup-rocketchat.sh
./backup-website.sh
rclone move backups cloudname:backup.example.com
```
More about rclone:

/root/rclone-ls-all.sh , shows directory contests at cloud:
```bash
rclone lsd cloudname:
```
In this example, cron does run backup scripts as root.
This is if you edit cron with command `crontab -e` as root user,
so it edits the cron of root user.

If mongodump command works as normal user for you, you could instead
run backups as normal user, by exiting root user with `exit` and
then as normal user editing cron with `crontab -e`.
You can also list current cron with command `crontab -l`.

If you like to backup Wekan snap settings with this command, then it
only works with sudo at front, or as a root user without sudo at front.
```bash
sudo snap get wekan > snap-settings.txt
```

This below is backup script for backing up Wekan.

[Creating a backup while the grain is running could cause corruption](https://github.com/sandstorm-io/sandstorm/issues/3186).

## Combining old and new Wekan version data

Note: Do mongodump/mongorestore only when Wekan is stopped: wekan.wekan (Snap) or wekan-app (Docker).

1. From new Wekan export all boards to Wekan JSON.
2. Backup new Wekan with mongodump.
3. Backup old Wekan with mongodump.
4. Restore old Wekan data to new Wekan with mongorestore.
5. Restore new Wekan JSON exported boards by importing them.

## Rescuing board that does not load

Wekan web UI Import/Export JSON does not have all content currently. To upgrade from old Wekan version, use mongodump/mongorestore to newest Wekan, like described below.

To import big JSON file, on Linux you can use xclip to copy textfile to clipboard:
```bash
sudo apt-get install xclip
cat board.json | xclip -se c
```
Then paste to webbrowser Wekan Add Board / Import / From previous export.

You can [save all MongoDB database content as JSON files](Export-from-Wekan-Sandstorm-grain-.zip-file). Files are base64 encoded in JSON files.

Export board to Wekan JSON, and import as Wekan JSON can make some part of board to load, but you should check is some data missing.

With Wekan Snap, you can use [nosqlbooster GUI](https://nosqlbooster.com/downloads) to login through SSH to Wekan server localhost port 27019 and browse data.

You could use [daff](https://github.com/paulfitz/daff) to compare tables.

## Using Snap Mongo commands on your bash CLI

Add to your `~/.bashrc`
```bash
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/snap/wekan/current/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
export PATH="$PATH:/snap/wekan/current/bin"
```
Then you can backup:
```bash
mongodump --port 27019
```
And restore:
```bash
mongorestore --drop --port 27019
```

## MongoDB shell on Wekan Snap

mongoshell.sh
```bash
#/bin/bash
export LC_ALL=C
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/snap/wekan/current/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
version=$(snap list | grep wekan | awk -F ' ' '{print $3}')
mongo=$"/snap/wekan/$version/bin/mongo"
$mongo --port 27019

## <a name="cloudron">Cloudron

If those [Backup](Backup) ways are not easily found at [Cloudron](Cloudron), one way is to install [Redash](https://redash.io/) and then backup this way:

Redash works with this kind of queries:
```json
{
	"collection": "accountSettings",
	"query": {
		"type": 1
	},
	"fields": {
		"_id": 1,
		"booleanValue": 1,
		"createdAt": 1,
		"modifiedAt": 1,		
	}
}
```
So:

1) Create this kind of query:
```json
{
	"collection": "boards"
}
```

Later when you modify query, you can remove text like boards with double-click-with-mouse and delete-key-at-keyboard (or select characters with mouse and delete-key-at-keyboard), and then click collection/table >> button to insert name of next collection/table.

2) Click Save

3) Click Execute. This will cache query for use with REST API.

4) Click at right top `[...]` => `Show API key`

It looks like this:

https://redash.example.com/api/queries/1/results.json?api_key=...

5) Only when saving first collection/table, Save API key to text file script like this `dl.sh` 
```bash
#!/bin/bash

# Example: ./dl.sh boards

export APIKEY=https://redash.example.com/api/queries/1/results.json?api_key=...

curl -o $1.json $APIKEY
```

6) Run save script like:
```bash
./dl.sh boards
```
Note: 1) Save 2) Execute => webbrowser can give this kind of timeout,
but downloading with API script still works:

> wekan
> Error running query: failed communicating with server. Please check your Internet connection and try again.

7) Repeat steps 1-4 and 6 for every collection/table like boards,cards, etc

8) Remove from downloaded .json files extra query related data, so that it is similar like [any other Wekan database backup JSON files](Export-from-Wekan-Sandstorm-grain-.zip-file)

9) Insert data to some other Wekan install with nosqlbooster like mentioned at page [Backup](Backup)
