I’ve created a strapi app but forgot to change the database config and it’s currently setup using sqlite.
If i make a git commit the app will rebuild and i will loose my data.
I’d love to be able to make a copy of this file and go through the process of migrating the data into a postgres db, but i’m unsure how i can do this if i can’t SSH into the app container. Please help

Hello,
I think that you could use the cp command to copy the SQLite file to your public directory, and then you could access your app URL /the_sqlite_file via your browser and download the file that way.
Let me know how it goes.
Regards,
Bobby
