The scripts used for backup and restore data in Firefly III docker containers. Steps are in the .md file.

Usage Instructions:

  1. Backup Script (backup_firefly_docker.sh):

    • Run the script: ./backup_firefly_docker.sh
    • Enter the database password when prompted.
    • The script will create a backup of the database and uploads directory, compress it, and verify its contents. The files will be in the directory of your current path. (The path when you run the script)
    • The backup file and its checksum will be saved in the firefly_backups directory.

  2. Restore Script (restore_firefly_docker.sh):

Install Firefly on a Raspberry Pi 3 with Docker, Docker Compose and a self-signed certificate

I'm running a dockerized Firefly III on a Raspberry 3 in my local network. With the help of an additional nginx Container and a self-signed SSL Certificate I was able to set up https.

Maybe somebody will find this guide helpfull, it took me a couple of tries to get it right.

Install Docker on the Raspberry

Simply follow the official documentation at https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/debian/#install-using-the-convenience-script. You'll need to run the script if you are using the default Raspberry OS: Raspbian.

Install Docker Compose using Python PIP

Use Pythons package manager PIP to install Docker Compose, details can be found on docker.com as well: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/#install-using-pip. Before you can follow the guide you'll need to install python-pip.
