migrate-s3-nc

It's a tool to migrate a structured database to S3 storage.

Requirement

First, you must get this project with git or download it in zip format.

git clone https://github.com/arawa/migrate-s3-nc.git

If you have not composer, follow this instruction page to install composer .

It's very important to build this project.

cd migrate-s3-nc
composer install

Step 1 : Disabled your web service

You must stop the web service to ensure that no one or a technical user use Nextcloud.

# nginx
sudo systemctl stop nginx.service
# apache (Debian based)
sudo systemctl stop apache.service
# or this
sudo systemctl stop apache2.service
# apache (CentOS based)
sudo systemctl stop httpd.service

⚠️ NOTE : If you have a web cluster. You must enter this command on the others servers in the cluster.

Step 2 : Check your files & database

Use the files_scan.sh script from the project folder to scan the filesystem of Nextcloud :

# script to scan your filesystem of nextcloud
./files_scan.sh /var/www/html/nextcloud <web-user>

⚠️ NOTE : The <web-user> is the user of your web server : nginx for the nginx, www-data for the apache CentOS based, apache or apache2 for Debian based .

Go to Nextcloud folder, example : /var/www/html/nextcloud, to use occ command line and cleanup the database of nextcloud.

# cleanup your database
sudo -u <web-user> php occ files:cleanup

⚠️ NOTE : I think you need to enter the commands for this step on the others servers in the web cluster if you have one.

Step 3 : Comment your cron tasks for Nextcloud

sudo crontab -u <web-user> -e

⚠️ NOTE : I think you need to enter this command for this step on the others servers in the web cluster if you have one.

Step 4 : Enable the Nextxcloud's maintenance

Enable the maintenance mode of Nextcloud. This mode prevent the technical user or users to access your Nextcloud's instance.

cd /var/www/html/nextcloud
sudo -u <web-user> php occ maintenance:mode --on

This step is very important. Otherwise, your Nextcloud will recreate the storages in the oc_storages database table.

⚠️ NOTE : You must enter this command on the others servers in the web cluster if you have one.

Step 5 : backup your database

Run this command line to backup your database :

mysqldump --user <user-database> --password <database-name> > <database-name>-backup.sql

And particularly the oc_storages databalse table :

mysqldump --user <user-database> --password <database-name> oc_storages > <database-name>-oc_storages-backup.sql

If you have a problem with the migration, you can just rollback this database table and not the entire database.

Now, you can configure your .env file.

⚠️ NOTE : I think for this step you don't need to enter these commands on all the servers in your web cluster if you have one.

Configure .env file

You must copy the .env-sample to .env file and define your config in .env file.

Here is the content of the .env file.

NEXTCLOUD_CONFIG_PATH="/config/config.php"

After all these, you can go in the How to run ? part !

How to run ?

First, you must build with composer command-line : composer install from the project folder.

You must run this command to starting the migration :

$ php main.php

⚠️ Be careful : The migration could take hours or days. I advise you to use the byobu app to have a virtual session and exit to leave your terminal whenever you want. Here is a cheat sheet to navigate in byobu.

⚠️ NOTE : You must enter this command on one of the servers in your web cluster if you have one.

After its execution, it prints this message :

Congrulation ! The migration is done !
You should move the new_config.php file and replace Nextcloud's config.php file with it
Please, check if it's new config is correct !

It means the script has run with success !

You must check the good config in the new_config.php file before replace it with the Nextcloud's config.php file.

⚠️ NOTE : I think you need to move the new_config.php to config.php on all the servers in your web cluster if you have one.

Once the copy is done. You can check in your oc_storages database table if it's correct :

MariaDB [nextcloud]> select * from oc_storages where id like "%home%";
Empty set (0.000 sec)

Then, you must :

  1. Decomment cron tasks
  2. Disable Nextcloud's maintenance
  3. Enable your web server (nginx, apache and so on)

Dependencies

  • Dotenv : To set your config.
  • Aws SDK Php : To push your files.

How to purge the bucket ?

You can purge your bucket with the purgeBucket.php file. It's very useful when your migration has been stopped abruptly.

php purgeBucket.php

🚨 Caution : This program deletes all objects in your bucket and you must rollback your database, in particular the oc_storage database table. Then, begin the migration from How to run ? part.

⚠️ NOTE : I think you can run this command on one of the servers in your web cluster if you have one.
