Loomio Import

[girish]

@darren On Cloudron, the containers are organized differently. You have to

• First, upload the export file using the File manager . Say to /tmp or something
• Then, use Web terminal to run rails commands.

I put some docs here - https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/loomio/#rails-console

Thanks @girish! This is helpful. Apologize if I'm missing something... I'm still encountering an error when I try to start the rail console in the web terminal following setting those environment variables:

`validate_secret_key_base': Missing `secret_key_base` for 'production' environment, set this string with `bin/rails credentials:edit`

Do I need to set something else?

[girish]

@darren You are right, I forgot a step . Please run source /app/data/env.sh before you start the rails console. I am fixing the docs.

[darren]

Perfect! Thanks again @girish I'm in now

@darren is this you importing data from the hosted Loomio to a self-hosted Loomio on Cloudron? If so, cool! I may do that too...

[darren]

@jdaviescoates yes that's the case. I was able to import a large group from hosted Loomio into self-hosted Loomio on Cloudron. The import seems stable so far.

@girish I just realized that the hourly cron loomio-deploy recommends [and that's already in the cloudron package] was failing. I think similarly because the db connection wasn't defined for

bundle exec rake loomio:hourly_tasks

How should I proceed? I can schedule my own cron but it seems like this might be something that should be updated in the base cloudron package for loomio?

I can confirm the issue. Preparing a new app package now.

Latest package release has this fixed now.
