Backing up databases in dev mode

[rdenman]

Is there a way to back up all the challenges and quiz questions I've entered into my development environment without doing a snapshot of the whole platform/challenges? Where is all that information stored? I want to give the platform to a couple other people to load on their machines and play around with before setting up the server.

You can just dump the database with mysqldump and then load it with mysql later on. I can provide the exact commands later if you can't figure it out.

This PR should provide exporting capability from the UI, but I haven't had time to review it yet.

thanks!

For anyone looking for specifics:
-ssh into vm
-run: mysqldump -u ctf -pctf fbctf > fbctf.sql
-sudo mv fbctf.sql /vagrant (if you want to get it off the vm and store on the local machine)
