## Important note ## Important note
If you already have LNbits installed and running, on an SQLite database, we **HIGHLY** recommend you migrate to postgres! If you already have LNbits installed and running, on an SQLite database, we **HIGHLY** recommend you migrate to postgres!
There's a script included that can do the migration easy. You should have Postgres already installed and there should be a password for the user, check the guide above. There's a script included that can do the migration easy. You should have Postgres already installed and there should be a password for the user, check the guide above. Additionally, your lnbits instance should run once on postgres to implement the database schema before the migration works:
```sh ```sh
# STOP LNbits # STOP LNbits
# on the LNBits folder, locate and edit 'conv.py' with the relevant credentials
python3 conv.py
# add the database connection string to .env 'nano .env' LNBITS_DATABASE_URL= # add the database connection string to .env 'nano .env' LNBITS_DATABASE_URL=
# postgres://<user>:<password>@<host>/<database> - alter line bellow with your user, password and db name # postgres://<user>:<password>@<host>/<database> - alter line bellow with your user, password and db name
LNBITS_DATABASE_URL="postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost/lnbits" LNBITS_DATABASE_URL="postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost/lnbits"
# save and exit # save and exit
# START LNbits
# STOP LNbits
# on the LNBits folder, locate and edit 'conv.py' with the relevant credentials
python3 conv.py
``` ```
Hopefully, everything works and get migrated... Launch LNbits again and check if everything is working properly. Hopefully, everything works and get migrated... Launch LNbits again and check if everything is working properly.
