I can’t believe it’s an Appwrite Schema!

So. I want to contribute to the project. But I don’t want to put too many requests on the cloud while I play around.

Would it be possible to get an export of the Appwrite schema by using the Appwrite cli?

This way we can get the collections, fields and everything without any user data.

Here’s the docs of how to:

https://appwrite.io/docs/tooling/command-line/installation#update-your-cli

but the gist of it is:

Install the cli:
npm install -g appwrite-cli

Login:
appwrite login --endpoint "<URL_HERE>"

after logging in with the Appwrite username and password

Initialize the project:
appwrite init

This will prompt you to select the team, and project.

It will generate a appwrite.json file with all the goodies (things like collections and its fields, bucket names and permissions, stuff like that)
it doesn’t include any secrets or anything, but it’s not a bad idea to check and remove anything that shouldn’t be public.

Anyways.
thanks for reading my TED talk.

Hey @CodiAsFox,

Thanks for making the discussion, this has indeed crossed my mind and been wanting to, but I have had an insane amount of time dedicated to other projects, like the Eurofurence app 🙏🏼

My initial plan was to make a docker-compose file which included the correct appwrite version, including a "migration" sort of step.
I'll try to generate the file today if I get to it. Thanks!

Hey @CodiAsFox,

You can find the appwrite.json in the headpat-web (https://github.com/Headpat-Community/headpat-web) repository. Hope it helps!
