No, but debugging is slow, and if you did not open it to visitors, no.

So, I’m facing an issue with this app, and your post has made me check the upstream’s issue tracker. The conclusion is that there is no support for MariaDB anymore for NocoDB, or rather its implementation is broken and not fixed.

The only means I see to upgrade to the latest version is to export all data from within the app (there’s a tool to export in JSON format for example), backup and delete the app, install it to v2026.06.1, and finally restore the exported data. :confused:

You may install the new version with sudo yunohost app install https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/nocodb_ynh/tree/ci-auto-update-2026.06.1 -f.

i’m gonna do in-app export and use that command

meanwhile i do it, you confirm that now is postgres so?

Yes indeed, the internal NocoDB database will be on PostgreSQL from now on.

sorry for the late response

looks like it’s fine but i used the json and csv import (apparently, json gave me nothing more than csv lol)

(the fact that all these softwares have payment gated export of data from the ui is so annoying)

for the rest, it seems fine

I’m sorry, on my test instance this feature is free. :scream: Did I misunderstood what you wrote?

on baserow, only csv is free

on nocodb, csv json and excel are free BUT it’s always for a single view (obviouslt for a csv, not so obvious for a json)

the full snapshot of a base is gated, and so in the best case scenario you can export the whole data of a table but not with all the views

for baserow the snapshot of a base is not gated but i cannot find a way to download it from the ui and this as…. Wait i just found out a way to export the whole workspace :smiley:

Maybe i should just keep them both and use baserow for editing and nocodb for publishing (it can publish a whole base so every table with every view in a single link, but no password in that case lol)(also more free views and map and gallery are nice)

maybe it’s time to add mathesar and undb in the wishlist, but i wonder if they are so behind that i would just come back to noco

aaaaaaa 2026 and we have no real notion and airtable selfhostable contendeeeeer

Just to be sure… updates from from 0.301.3~ynh1 to 2026.06.1~ynh1 will need a manual ex/import? Thanks

Yes :frowning:

Ok, thanks for the confirmation

i will stick with my current version until i find an alternative. rebuilding all my tables will be a few hours of work

  • function columns are not included in the json / csv
  • colum formating (date, number, multi select, etc) are lost
    • workaround import csv header, column formatting, data import
  • some quirks with the timestamp, would need to look into that

the latest version is littered with license badges and limitations. not sure if its worth it, but cant really find an alternative.. mathesar maybe…?
