question: how to migrate booru from one ARM64 device to another?

[urcades]

I'm planning on moving a booru from an older raspberry pi 3+ to a raspberry pi 5.

Do I need to perform anything special to move the booru from one device to another? Is there anything in particular I'm copying over to the new machine?

If you have it installed using Docker, you should be able to just copy over the volumes and then start up a new container on the Raspberry Pi 5. I haven't tested doing it myself though.

@nosyrbllewe gotcha, that makes sense! One last (potentially dumb) question along these lines: Does the docker yaml at the root of the repo indicate where these volumes live? I was browsing around my filesystem to try and fine the volumes they point to but couldn’t seem to find anything obviously indicative of my booru’s db.. pretty sure I kept the setup default and didn’t customize any of the paths or anything
