about 3 days into my trial here. really loving this so far. quick question though, you can setup a single linked database in your project settings or you can setup multiple databases from the database side menu. what is the difference?
Hi,
This is the standard way, the database is defined in your project settings
Not a lot of people do this. I suspect this way the databases are not tied to your project settings, so if e.g. you move computers you have to re-create the database(s)
just to clarify, they wouldn't be tied to your project if using the left side menu? when i open a different projects, they all retain their individual database settings from the side menu. i'm probably misunderstanding though...i'm only a few days in. but it's a good point....if i have wappler installed on a few computers, can i get everything to sync up? is wappler tied to the cloud at all? or would it just pull settings on projects etc from your remote webserver? or is there no sync?
I'm not completely sure on this to be honest, but my assumption is that the databases you create using the Resource Manager are tied to your local Docker installation. The project settings could have connections to those databases created automatically, but those databases would be considered "external". But I could be wrong...
No, every setting is on your project folder on your computer
People here usually use Git repositories to sync to the cloud. The most common Git provider is GitHub. There's built-in Git functionality in Wappler but I'm not familiar with it, I'm sure you could find a tutorial
