Is there any way I can download(?) changed settings?

[Tres]

My forum is running on Amazon AWS Elastic Beanstalk.

But as you know when you update, you usually deploy the whole local project files as one big file.

So, when I change settings on the server(EB), the changes are lost when I deploy a new version.

So if it is possible, I would like to kinda download the changed settings(?) to also apply the changes to my local settings.

Or if there's any other way please let me know.

guess i should download the whole folder using cli remote access and just overwrite the folder..

I am looking into possibly running IPB with elastic beanstalk. Aren't setting all store in DB for IPB other than the constants file.  I can see the need to download the whole directory after any update or new app/plugin install and make it available during the next roll out.

 

Are you utilizing EFS for common file storage and autoscaling?

 

thanks

Yes, settings are stored in both the database and constants.php file. Additionally, there's conf_global.php.

Things like plugins, applications, themes, and the like are stored on the file system, and images and other uploaded content are based on your file storage settings.

This is a fun adventure to be on! 🙂
