Backing up Blockly

[alarm_guy1]

Hi guys,

I had a system crash last week, my own doing (I have a POE converter ethernet & 5v, I powered down the Switch before shutting down the Pi) I managed to re-instate from a backup, but I feel there are some further underlying issues.

My system has regularly started just freezing, loosing nodes.
My plan is to virtually start from scratch new Pi new SD and install
however I have several Blocklys, and DZvents, I can find these, but not the blockly.

I didnt want to restore from my backup just incase there is an issue as we have been struggling all week and it was freezing this morning, the was wasnt happy.


Cheers

...However I have several Blocklys, and DZvents, I can find these, but not the blockly.

The Blockly scripts are stored in the database. dzVents script written in the internal editor also but they are exported to the OS files-system.
Tables you want to preserve are EventMaster and EventRules.
Some time ago I posted a bash script here to export Blockly scripts from the database to the os file level.

Cheers, just figured out getting it working, only took 29 mins, I must be improving.

However I get this error
created /home/pi/Downloads/blockly/Lounge Light Off Alarm set.xml
blockly.sh: 20: blockly.sh: [[: not found
created /home/pi/Downloads/blockly/Death_Star_After_Midnight.xml

There are files in my /home/pi/Downloads/blockly

You can change [[ to [ and ]] to ] and try again. Some Debian versions do not like the double brackets.
