2018-01-14

My current plan is:

  1. create a new Postgres db for toot.cat's Mastodon
  2. migrate the data there
  3. create new user "tootcat"
  4. install Mastodon under "tootcat"
  5. run Mastodon's schema upgrade rake task
  6. test the result as https://new.toot.cat (get it working)
  7. write a script to automate the data migration
  8. in close succession:
    1. run the migration script
    2. reconfigure nginx to point to the new instance

Notes

Inside /root/backups:

su - postgres -c 'pg_dump mastodon' > tootcat.sql

Upgrading Mastodon: official

I'm calling the new db tootcat-masto-r1 (toot.cat Mastodon db revision 1) (possibly with '-' replaced by '_').

Probably just need to do this next: CREATE DATABASE tootcat-masto-r1;
