Tube Archivist

Project updates

This release introduces deduplicated snapshots for the Elasticsearch index. Before activating snapshots on the settings page, you’ll have to add an additional environment variable to the archivist-es container: path.repo=/usr/share/elasticsearch/data/snapshot, also see the updated docker-compose.yml file for reference.

The plan is to replace the current json file backup solution with snapshots, as this is a much faster, ressource and storage efficient solution. But as the snapshot files are not human readable, the current json backup solution will stay as a manual backup solution.

It’s particularly recommended to activate snapshots for large indexes, as upcoming changes in the index will otherwise trigger a slow json backup task.
