EmonCMS backup / copy the remote Dashboards?

Submitted by johny5_uk on Tue, 09/04/2013 - 07:38

after a few mistakes and hicups on my local install on the Rpi I decided to create feeds and dashboards on the emoncms.org site as oppose to locally.

Now I have perfect input processes and dashboards, is there any way that I can copy these from the site back down to my local install?

I am aware that the feeds appear to sync up but the inout processes and dashboards obviously dont.

thanks

Trystan Lea will obviously be able to tell you if you can download your dashboards - I've never seen this mentioned. What I do know is that emoncms.org is not backed up.

great, thank you Robert. I know ultimately I should have done it the other way round but now I am happy with everything and things seem stable I should really look to host everything locally and share with emoncms.org

Digging deeper it looks like the actual dashboard info is stored in the SQL database in "dashboard".

I wonder if its as straight forward as copying the content of the dashboard entries in the database across but this obviously isnt shared publicly.
