Migrating from Digitalocean to Hetzner (Images)

Hello everyone,

I have a project on Digitalocean and want to switch to Hetzner. As for the database, I know how to download it from production and then upload it to publishing. But my question is about the uploaded images.

How do I download the entire folder and then upload the images in the uploads folder, or is there another way?
I appreciate any help.

I had a simlar issue some years ago, images on DO Spaces I wanted to migrate.
I could not find a way to download them but as i had links to each image in the database i wrote a server action to repeat through them all download and then push them to my target one by one. Not ideal but it worked.

Got it. This might work for me too

Thanks!

Is the DO target still active in Wappler? If so, you should be able to use the remote view in the files explorer to see the folder and download it:

Alternatively, create a Server Connect API action that goes through the folder and uploads them to an S3 bucket

Yes, I still have the server active on Digital. I did as you said, but it only opens two folders below /opt/node_app... app and assets.

If I'm logged in to Hetzner, this works, but not on Digitalocean.

Now I'm trying to figure out how to get a URL for an image and save it to the server?

When I send it from the frontend, it's in binary format, and when I have a URL, how do I do it?

That wasn't quite it. I thought about doing a repeat on the server with a list of image URLs and saving them on our server. How do I put a URL in the setvalue, for example, and save it on the server?

What is stored in your database field and what is rhe path to your files?

I had 410 reference images. I ended up doing everything manually. But it would be nice to have a way to add images to the server. I even tried through N8N and couldn't. I appreciate all your help and attention.
