Database

There are 4 available database providers:

• PostgreSQL: Recommended for advanced & big servers.

• MySQL: Recommended for advanced & big servers.

• SQLite: Recommended for small servers.

• YAML: Recommended for small servers.

Warning: If you selected PostgreSQL or MySQL, please create a new database (postgre) or a new chema (mysql) with the name: "homestead_data"

Migrating Data to another provider

1. Prepare your new provider's details (username, password...) in the config.yml file.

2. Save the changes and reload the configuration via the command: /hsadmin reload

3. Migrate the current data to the new provider using the command: /hsadmin migratedata [provider]

4. Turn off your server, and change the provider to the provider you have migrated to earlier. Remember to save the changes!

5. Start the server.

6. You're good to go!

Caution: DO NOT RELOAD THE PLUGINS (using /reload) WHEN YOU ARE MIGRATING DATA TO A NEW PROVIDER, THIS WILL CAUSE TONS OF ISSUES, INCLUDING DATA CORRUPTION AND MAJOR EXPLOITS TO ALL REGIONS, SUCH AS GRIEFING.
