17 Migration procedure from SQLite to MySQL or MariaDB
Javier Pastor edited this page 2020-11-26 19:17:27 +01:00

This guide assumes you already have MySQL/MariaDB working with ombi.

Migration procedure

This would be the procedure to migrate the Ombi databases from SQLite to a MySQL/MariaDB server.

If there is an error you can contact Discour or you can open an incident here.

1. Requirements

  • Python3
  • Ombi version 4.0.728 or higher

2. Create database and user in the server MySql/MariaDB

On the MySQL/MariaDB server we will create the database and the user that we will use later.

2.1. A Single Database

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `Ombi` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_bin;
CREATE USER 'ombi'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'ombi';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `Ombi`.* TO 'ombi'@'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;

2.2. In Multiple DataBases or Servers MySql/MariaDB

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `Ombi` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_bin;
CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `Ombi_Settings` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_bin;
CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `Ombi_External` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_bin;
CREATE USER 'ombi'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'ombi';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `Ombi`.* TO 'ombi'@'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `Ombi_Settings`.* TO 'ombi'@'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `Ombi_External`.* TO 'ombi'@'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;

You need to GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES for every database you create.

3. Download Script and install dependencies

  1. Download the script.
    $ git clone https://github.com/vsc55/ombi_sqlite_mysql.git ombi_sqlite_mysql
    $ cd ombi_sqlite_mysql
    $ chmod +x *.py
    
  2. Install the dependencies according to the operating system we use.
    $ apt-get install python-mysqldb    # Debian/Ubuntu
    $ emerge -va mysqlclient            # Gentoo
    $ pip install mysqlclient           # Python Pip
    $ python -m pip install mysqlclient # Python Pip

4. Create and prepare tables

  1. Update to the latest version of ombi.

  2. Stop ombi

  3. Create or Modify database.json to use mysql.

    $ python ombi_sqlite2mysql.py -c /etc/Ombi --only_db_json --host 192.168.1.100 --db Ombi --user ombi --passwd ombi
    Migration tool from SQLite to MySql/MariaDB for ombi (3.0.4) By VSC55
    
    Generate file "database.json":
    - Saving in (/etc/Ombi/database.json)... []
    
  4. Only if we are going to use Multiple DataBases or Multiple Servers.

    To be able to use multiple servers or databases we will need to manually edit database.json.

    $ vi database.json
    {
        "OmbiDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.100;Port=3306;Database=Ombi;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "SettingsDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.100;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_Settings;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "ExternalDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.200;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_External;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        }
    }
    

    The example above will export the "OmbiDatabase" and "SettingsDatabase" databases to server "192.168.0.100" but to different databases on the same server, while the "ExternalDatabase" database will be sent to server "192.168.1.200".

  5. Run the following command:

    $ ombi --migrate

5. Data Migration

When it comes to migrating the data, we have several different ways of doing it. We can export everything to a single database (step 4.1), to different databases or to different mysql servers (step 4.2).

5.1. Data Migration (Single Database)

For data migration we will need the file "migration.json" that contains the locations of the SQLite databases.

If this file does not exist, it will be created and will search the databases in the folder specified with the parameter "--config".

If we don't want to migrate all the data, we can generate the file "migration.json" with the parameter "--only_manager_json" and then edit it by deleting the databases we don't want to migrate.

If we do not want to export OmbiExternal.

$ python ombi_sqlite2mysql.py -c /etc/Ombi --only_manager_json
Migration tool from SQLite to MySql/MariaDB for ombi (3.0.4) By VSC55

Generate file "migration.json":
- Saving in (/etc/Ombi/migration.json)... []

$ vi /etc/Ombi/migration.json

Content "migration.json":

{
   "OmbiDatabase": {
      "Type":"sqlite",
      "ConnectionString":"Data Source=/etc/Ombi/Ombi.db"
   },
   "SettingsDatabase": {
      "Type":"sqlite",
      "ConnectionString":"Data Source=/etc/Ombi/OmbiSettings.db"
   }
}
  1. Start data migration.

    The script will empty the tables from the MySQL/MariaDB database and automatically migrate the data from SQLite to MySQL/MariaDB.

    $ python ombi_sqlite2mysql.py -c /etc/Ombi --host 192.168.1.100 --db Ombi --user ombi --passwd ombi
    Migration tool from SQLite to MySql/MariaDB for ombi (3.0.4) By VSC55
    
    Generate file "migration.json":
    - Saving in (/etc/Ombi/migration.json)... []
    
    Generate file "database.json":
    - Saving in (/etc/Ombi/database.json)... []
    
    MySQL > Connecting... []
    Check migration.json:
    - SettingsDatabase [SQLite >> Migrate]
    - OmbiDatabase [SQLite >> Migrate]
    - ExternalDatabase [SQLite >> Migrate]
    
    Dump SQLite:
    - SettingsDatabase  [############################################################] 27/27
    - OmbiDatabase      [############################################################] 117106/117106
    - ExternalDatabase  [############################################################] 574/574
    
    Start clean tables:
    - [CLEAN ] -> ApplicationConfiguration -> rows: 3
    - [CLEAN ] -> AspNetRoles -> rows: 12
    - [CLEAN ] -> AspNetUserRoles -> rows: 18
    - [CLEAN ] -> AspNetUsers -> rows: 6
    - [CLEAN ] -> GlobalSettings -> rows: 12
    - [CLEAN ] -> NotificationTemplates -> rows: 90
    - [BACKUP] -> __EFMigrationsHistory
    - [SKIP  ] -> __EFMigrationsHistory -> rows: 3
    
    - Running   [############################################################] 8/8
    Clean tables []
    
    Start Migration:

    - Checking  [############################################################] 43/43
    
    MySQL > Disconnecting... []
    
  2. Start ombi and test if everything works fine.

5.2. Data Migration (Multiple DataBases or Servers MySql/MariaDB)

For data migration to multiple databases or servers we will need the file "database_multi.json" that contains the locations of the servers where we are going to export the data.

  1. To create the file "database_multi.json" we will use the file "database.json" so we will only have to rename it.

    $ vi database_multi.json
    {
        "OmbiDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.100;Port=3306;Database=Ombi;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "SettingsDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.100;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_Settings;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "ExternalDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.200;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_External;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        }
    }
    

    We can omit the export of a database by removing it from "database_multi.json" or adding the property "Skip". The example next will export the databases "OmbiDatabase" and "SettingsDatabase" but omit "ExternalDatabase".

    $ vi database_multi.json
    {
        "OmbiDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.100;Port=3306;Database=Ombi;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "SettingsDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.100;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_Settings;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "ExternalDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.200;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_External;User=ombi;Password=ombi",
            "Skip": true
        }
    }
    

    We can also send the same database to different servers with the following configuration. The example next sends databases "OmbiDatabase", "SettingsDatabase" and "ExternalDatabase" to servers 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.200.

    $ vi database_multi.json
    {
        "OmbiDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.100;Port=3306;Database=Ombi;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "SettingsDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.100;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_Settings;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "ExternalDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.100;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_External;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "OmbiDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.200;Port=3306;Database=Ombi;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "SettingsDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.200;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_Settings;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        },
        "ExternalDatabase": {
            "Type": "MySQL",
            "ConnectionString": "Server=192.168.1.200;Port=3306;Database=Ombi_External;User=ombi;Password=ombi"
        }
    }
    

    NOTE: If you want to export all the content to several servers we will have to repeat the point "Create and prepare tables" with the different servers so that all the tables are created. You will also have to modify the file database.json at the end of the export process before running ombi to leave a single server for each database.

  2. Start data migration.

    The script will empty the tables from the MySQL/MariaDB database and automatically migrate the data from SQLite to MySQL/MariaDB.

S: We will have to force the elimination of the data in all the tables with the parameter --force as follows.

# Single Database:
$ python ombi_sqlite2mysql.py -c /etc/Ombi --force --host 192.168.1.100 --db Ombi --user ombi --passwd ombi
# Multiple DataBases or Servers MySql/MariaDB:
$ python ombi_sqlite2mysql_multi.py -c /etc/Ombi --force
