Summary

  • New Restoring a backup section in myspotify/README.md. Dokploy's built-in MongoDB restore fails (mongorestore --db <name> --archive → invalid db name), so the README documents the manual restore: --nsInclude "your_spotify.*", with the root user read from the container environment.
  • The migration steps now point to that section instead of suggesting the Dokploy restore.

Testing

  • Ran the documented command with --dryRun against a backup produced by Dokploy's scheduled Mongo backup and against a manual mongodump --archive --gzip dump: both are read without errors.
  • The same procedure (without --dryRun) was used for the real migration: 304,795 documents restored.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Dokploy's built-in restore runs `mongorestore --db <name> --archive`,
which current MongoDB tools reject ("invalid db name"). Document the
working manual restore with --nsInclude and the root user from the
container environment, and point the migration steps to it.

Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Added instructions for restoring a MongoDB backup, including downloading the compressed archive, stopping and restarting the API, and running an authenticated restore command.
    • Clarified that the procedure also works with manual database dumps.
    • Updated migration guidance to direct readers to the documented restore procedure.

The README adds a manual procedure to restore a compressed MongoDB backup. The migration instructions now refer to that procedure.

Changes: MongoDB Restore Documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Manual restore procedure and migration reference
myspotify/README.md
The README explains how to stop the API, run authenticated mongorestore with gzip archive input and the your_spotify.* namespace, then restart the API. The migration instructions now refer to this procedure.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to 367ea

The restore instructions need safeguards before merging: a failed or incompatible restore can leave incomplete data, and some manual dumps will restore nothing. Clarify recovery, compatibility, namespace selection, credential handling, and the migration filename.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @myspotify/README.md:
- Around line 53-54: Update the README restore guidance to state the required
source and destination MongoDB version or FCV compatibility before restoring an
archive, and instruct operators to back up the destination because the restore
command drops existing collections.
- Around line 66-67: Update the README migration instructions to tell operators
to skip the backup download and use your_spotify.archive.gz in place of
backup.bson.gz when restoring the migration dump. Keep the existing link to the
restoring-a-backup instructions.
- Around line 47-51: Update the restore procedure around the `mongorestore`
command and `docker start myspotify-api` step to require saving and verifying a
separate backup of the current database before using `--drop`. Restart the API
only after confirming the restore completed successfully.
- Around line 45-46: Update the `mongorestore` command in the README to read the
root password from a permissions-restricted configuration file instead of
passing it as a process argument; preserve the existing username and restore
behavior.
- Around line 48-54: Update the manual-dump restore instructions in the README:
explain how to select the dump’s source namespace, such as spotify, and remap it
to your_spotify during restore. Tell operators to verify the restored document
count before restarting the API.
- Around line 47-48: Update the mongorestore instructions around the command
using --drop to require restoring into an empty target database, since --drop
may leave collections absent from the backup in place; also advise retaining a
pre-restore backup before proceeding.

Keep the root password out of process arguments.

On a shared host, another user may read the password from the mongorestore process arguments and use it to access MongoDB. Use a permissions-restricted --config file for the password instead.

Preserve the current database before restoring

If the restore fails after --drop removes collections, restarting the API can expose incomplete data. The previous data may be unrecoverable. First save and verify a separate backup of the current database. Restart the API only after confirming that the restore completed successfully.

Document namespace remapping for manual dumps.

If a manual dump uses spotify, this command restores none of its collections. The API can then use an empty or stale your_spotify database. Document how to select the source namespace and remap it to your_spotify, and tell operators to verify the restored document count.

Document version compatibility before restoring an archive.

A manual archive from an incompatible MongoDB version can fail to restore or produce corrupted metadata. The command also drops existing collections. Document the source and destination version or FCV requirement, and tell operators to back up an existing destination before restoring.
