Database Import

Place your database backup files here for automatic import during deployment.

Supported Files

• .sql files (uncompressed SQL dumps)
• .sql.gz files (gzip compressed SQL dumps)

How to Use

1. Copy your backup files here:

   cp my_auth_backup.sql.gz ./database-import/
   cp my_world_backup.sql.gz ./database-import/
   cp my_characters_backup.sql.gz ./database-import/
   

2. Run deployment:

   ./deploy.sh
   

3. Files are automatically copied to backup system and imported during deployment

File Naming

• Any filename works - the system will auto-detect database type by content
• Recommended naming: auth.sql.gz, world.sql.gz, characters.sql.gz

What Happens

• Files from this folder are copied to local-storage/backups/daily/
• Database import system automatically restores them
• Original files remain here for reference

Notes

• Only processed on first deployment (when databases don't exist)
• Files are copied with timestamp to backup directory
• Empty folder is ignored - no files, no import
