Switching from file backend to redis backend

[justin...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

Is there a mechanism or straightforward path to "move" from an existing file-based backend to a redis store without recomputing all the tasks?

It seems like there ought to be a simple way to just iterate through tasks to get their location, change backends, then write all the tasks or something?

Any advice appreciated.

Justin

Hi Justin,

There is no command line API, but you can use the jug api from within Python

You can do something like this:

   src = jug.backends.select(source)

   dst = jug.backends.select(destination)

     for k in src.list():

       v = src.load(k)

       dst.dump(v, k)

I had claude do it as a proper script, see attached

python copy_jugdata.py YOUR_EXISTING_DIRECTORY.jugdata  redis://localhost/

Best, Luis
