Import/Export

Import

wanderer supports bulk uploading of trails via an auto-upload folder. A cronjob fetches all files from this folder and uploads them automatically every 15 minutes. This feature is currently only available for docker installations. If you want to replicate it in a bare metal installation you will need to create your own cronjob using the web/cron.sh script.

Caution

Successfully uploaded files will be deleted from the auto-upload folder.

Note

Currently only GPX files are supported.

Configuration

The following environment variables must be present in the wanderer-web docker container and set to valid values.

Environment Variable	Description	Default
UPLOAD_FOLDER	Path to the auto-upload folder	/app/uploads
UPLOAD_USER	Username of the account that will be the author of the uploaded trails
UPLOAD_PASSWORD	Password of the account that will be the author of the uploaded trails

Volume

Make sure to mount the upload folder as a volume to your host system. The default docker-compose.yml already includes this volume. Ensure that the mapped value matches the one in the UPLOAD_FOLDER environment variable.

Manually run the upload job

In case you do not want to wait until the next scheduled execution you can also run the job manually:

docker exec -it wanderer-web run-parts /etc/periodic/15min

Export

Currently, wanderer supports exporting only for single trails. A bulk export feature is planned for the near future.

To export a trail head over to /trails and select the trail you want to export. From the ⋮ menu select “Export”. You can export the route data either in GPX or in GeoJSON format. Furthermore, you can choose whether you want to include the photos and the summit book of the trail. In any case, wanderer will create a ZIP archive with all the data that is then downloaded.
