Hello Kin,
First off, thank you for this! I have had migrating to a database on my todo list for a long time. This makes things much easier. WI3W-3 is now on your dx-sql branch, testing. I had to rebuild WI3W-3 not that long ago and I had pulled the dxspider directory
from your github. When I tried to transition to the dx-sql repo, I got an error about merging the two branches saying that they were essentially incompatible. Sorry I don't recall the exact error.
Second, I noticed that WI3W-3 lost connection to EA3CV-3 sometime in the early hours of the 20th. I have disabled the cronjob for now. Let me know if I need to do something other than what we have been doing.
73, Chris WI3W

Subject: [Dxspider-support] EA3CV-2 node - SQL backend
Hi all,
I have moved my EA3CV-2 node into production with a new implementation that allows using the traditional dbfile backend or alternatively MariaDB/MySQL or SQLite.
This makes it possible to keep the bad lists, filters, and user_json data stored in a database. Performance is extremely fast, and the system is fully reversible back to dbfile if needed.
More to come…
