Hello, I have managed to self host the server via the provided docker-compose file + instructions. I was wondering how the CLI decrypt command works. I downloaded a file from Minio and tried to execute Problem I want to solveIn case museum or postgres is corrupted, I would still have all the "data" in S3. How can I recover all the images with correct filenames + metadata? Does it even make sense to decrypt each and every single file, or is it easier to spin up a new museum + postgres and somehow manage to link it to the existing decrypted files in S3. |

You cannot decrypt the data without the postgres DB, the keys are there, the objects by themselves are unusable. What you instead want to do is export your data as plaintext. We offer both a CLI tool and a desktop app to do that, more details here - https://help.ente.io/photos/migration/export/ - you can run either of them against your self hosted instance. |
