[2.0] A Realm Reborn: Post may contain potential spoilers.
Finally
Here’s the tree that I have been looking for. Just want to make certain that there are none watching since if I recall this is a “special” tree. Hm… One thing I forgot to consider is the fact that I don’t really have a tool for this size of tree. Only one way to find out.
Mistakes were made again…
So… In regards to me mentioning about implementing a new method of uploading these posts. I may have failed to understand how the sync function works with rclone. Now rclone essentially uses the same features as rsync and as such I was un the impression that the sync function would work in the same fashion. Unfortunately, rclone basically deleted the entirety of my posts and only leaving one behind heck it even deleted my pictures.
Thankfully, I had a mishmash of backups and was able to restore all of the posts. You may have noticed yesterday of this fault of mine when there were hardly any post listed for about 10-30 minutes. There’s a simple explanation as to why this failed and how I hadn’t encountered it with rsync before.
It essentially boils down to how I requested the transfer of data. Normally when using ansible I am using a push form of data transfer since its going from the local machine to the server.. There’s a simple explanation as to why this failed and how I hadn’t encountered it with rsync before.

Normally when using ansible I am using a push function of data transfer since its going from the local machine to the server.The data on the server doesn’t get sync with what I have exactly on my local machine. With rclone, I am having the server request data from pcloud which is a pull function. Essentially, grabbing data from an outside source to the local machine. Sadly, this pull method wipes the entire folder I directed it to since its syncing exactly to what pcloud has. As such it deletes all of the posts that don’t exist with the directory in pcloud. (all but one at the time)
Ultimately, all this means is that I can’t use the sync function due to its wipe capabilities. Now there’s ways to prevent it from happening, but I had found a better solution. I’ll just use the copy function instead. This way its not trying to make the folder sync with each other and instead copies any posts the server doesn’t have. Now I just need to decide on the interval when the server checks pcloud for new posts to download.
Anyhow, this is round 2 of me messing up the production server in one form or another and the second reminder that I should just setup a dev serverm, so that I don’t have to worry about unintentially taking the website down due to my mistakes. I hope you all learn from my mistakes and try not to repeat them. Just make different mistakes instead. (Hopefully, nothing servere)
