Removed Features
Deprecated Backup and Restore Plugin
Since NocoBase v0.19, we introduced the @nocobase/plugin-backup-restore plugin for application backup and restoration. However, user feedback revealed several limitations in its functionality:
Unable to backup and restore database-level metadata, such as default values for database fields and unique indexes.
Could not handle database objects like views, stored procedures, functions, and triggers during backup or restoration.
Required individual configuration of
dumpRulesfor each plugin form, often necessitating custom logic from plugin developers to avoid failures in the backup or restoration process.The complex design of backup grouping increased cognitive load and could lead to backup failures or data loss if not selected correctly.
The backup and restoration process occurred at the application layer, meaning it would fail if the application could not start.
After careful consideration, starting from version v1.4, we have decided to deprecate this plugin. For the new backup solution, please refer to the documentation below.
