Change password

Change nickname and country/language
You can customize the nickname and the “Language and country” property.
Export personal data
You can export your data at any time and then import it into a new MariaDB Grafioschtrader schema. With this procedure you can say goodbye to a shared GT instance and start a new personal instance of GT or edit or analyze the newly created database yourself with the appropriate tools.
What is exported
In addition to personal data, most shared data is exported, with the exception of instruments. It is exported regardless of the ownership of an entity.
- Instruments: The instruments used in your watchlist and in transactions are exported, as well as private securities.
Note
The historical price data of an instrument is not exported if it is still active at the time of export plus one month. The historical price data is loaded by the corresponding connectors after a few minutes when the back-end of the new GT instance is started for the first time.
Import export into database
If you want to process the export further according to your needs, you can proceed as follows. In the following the database grafioschtrader_s and not grafioschtrader is mentioned.
# Unzip file gtPersonalData.zip
unzip gtPersonalData.zip
# Create the database with your desired password for grafioschtrader
mysql -u root -p -e "create database grafioschtrader_s; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON grafioschtrader_s.* TO grafioschtrader@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'YOUR_DB_PASSWORD'"
# Create GT database schema, the password from above ('YOUR_DB_PASSWORD') is requested
mysql -ugrafioschtrader -p --default-character-set=utf8 grafioschtrader_s < gt_ddl.sql
# Import of personal data, the password from above ('YOUR_DB_PASSWORD') is requested
mysql -ugrafioschtrader -p --default-character-set=utf8 grafioschtrader_s < gt_data.sql
# MariaDB-InnoDB has an error, see MDEV-28327, hence the following command:
mysqlcheck -p -a grafioschtrader
You can evaluate or edit the GT database with phpMyAdmin, for example.
Use export as new GT instance
As mentioned, you can use your exported data as the basis for a new GT instance. To install GT, follow the wiki on GitHub. After installation, the export can be imported.
# Stop Grafioschtrader service if it is running
sudo systemctl stop grafioschtrader.service
# Unzip file gtPersonalData.zip
unzip gtPersonalData.zip
# Delete the existing database
mysql -u root -p -D grafioschtrader -e "DROP DATABASE grafioschtrader"
# Create the database with your desired password for grafioschtrader
mysql -u root -p -e "create database grafioschtrader; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON grafioschtrader.* TO grafioschtrader@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'YOUR_DB_PASSWORD'"
# Create GT database schema, the password from above ('YOUR_DB_PASSWORD') is requested
mysql -ugrafioschtrader -p --default-character-set=utf8 grafioschtrader < gt_ddl.sql
# Import of personal data, the password from above ('YOUR_DB_PASSWORD') is requested
mysql -ugrafioschtrader -p --default-character-set=utf8 grafioschtrader < gt_data.sql
# MariaDB-InnoDB has an error, see MDEV-28327, hence the following command:
mysqlcheck -p -a grafioschtrader
# Start Grafioschtrader service if it exists
sudo systemctl start grafioschtrader.service
The GT instance or source instance of the export must correspond to the same or lower version of the new GT instance or target instance.
