Leaving Ackee : data export

[timconsidine]

Much as I like the principle of Ackee, and it works nicely in so far as it goes, it is not as good (IMHO) as Umami.

So I will be uninstalling Ackee but want to get what data I can out.
However I can see no way of doing through the UI.
Something in docs about use GraphQL and the API.
But hardly easy.
Now I have to set up a new system just to get data from my old system.

Any thoughts on how I can get the data out?
Not asking for every last ounce, just main metrics.

@timconsidine guess I am going to have to export from the terminal
at least the mongo shell is easily accessible from terminal : well done Cloudron

[timconsidine]

@timconsidine so using the Cloudron app terminal, this seems to work

events :

Seems likes records is the primary table.
Hope this helps someone.

Thanks for sharing, this is always worth it to have a documented flow for such data migration steps

[timconsidine]

@nebulon I learn constantly from everyone here so pleased to share

Would be great to get umami packaged if someone is so kind
I got it installed on CapRover so hopefully it is within viable scope. Would be great to have it in my production Cloudron.
