I just found out about the new Joplin server and the suggested docker-compose file. I wanted to have a closer look but I am a bit concerned about the safety of my files/notes.
Up till now, all files are organized in the file system of my nextcloud server that has a daily backup strategy (worked well today ).
When considering switching to the Joplin server, I must be sure that I can implement a backup strategy there as well.
Are all data stored in the database? I found a reply somewhere in the forum that seems to indicate this. Will this be true in the future as well, @laurent? I want to avoid losing my safety net at the wrong moment.
The attachments might get quite quickly large compared to what a DB can handle efficiently. Are all attachments stored in the DB forever?
That is true but I am also concerned that this might change unnoticed over time. So, now it might well be the case that the DB is sufficient but if the implementation is changed "internally", this might render the backup solution invalid.
It's going to take up a lot of space. The attachments should be in a separate folder, and in the PG links.
I've got 300mb pg dump in three days. Nextcloud for the year 20mb.
