Custom Webapp
Empty application with SFTP access to the Web directory.
Overview
This application allows you to easily install a custom Web application,
providing files access with SFTP. It can also create a MySQL database
which will be backed up and restored if your application. The connection
details will be stored in the file db_accesss.txt
located at the root
directory.
Once installed, go to the chosen URL to know the user, domain and port
you will have to use for the SFTP access. Under the Web directory, you
will have a www
folder which is the public and served one. You can
put all the files of your custom Web application inside.
Upgrade
Due to the SFTP access change, the upgrade can not be done from the last
my_webapp
application - provided with YunoHost 2.2. You will have to remove
it first and install this new one, taking care of migrating your Web
application.
Save your files and database
You will have to save the content of the /var/www/my_webapp/files
directory, either from the Web admin interface provided with the old app,
connecting to your server using SSH or SFTP as admin
.
If you've created a MySQL database, you can also migrate it since the new
version allows to manage it for you. To create a dump, you could use
phpMyAdmin or connect to your server and execute:
mysqldump -u root -p$(cat /etc/yunohost/password --no-create-db "$dbname" > ./dump.sql
(do not forget to replace $dbname
by your database name).
Restore your custom Webapp
When you've take care of save your files - and optionally your database, you can remove the app and install this new one. You can set the same settings as the previous installation.
To restore your files, connect to the Web directory using the SFTP account
and put everything into the www
directory.
If you have chosen to migrate your database too, open the file db_access.txt
to know the new database, user and password you will have to set in your app
configuration. You can either restore the dump using phpMyAdmin or connect
to your server and execute:
mysql -u "$dbuser" -p"$dbpass" "$dbname" < ./dump.sql
(do not forget to replace $dbuser
, $dbpass
and $dbname
with the values
given in the file).
