My database disk is full, how can I access it and delete some data?
I ran a migrate transaction and didn't noticed that the free space is rapidly decreasing. Now I can't restart the postgres service, what can I do now 🥲

you would need to upgrade to pro to get access to 50gb volumes, once on pro you will be asked what projects you want to move over, move the desired project over then you can go into the volumes settings and grow the 5gb volume to 50gb and that will restart the database and you'll be back up and running

OK. Thank you! But that's a bit expensive. Are there any other method to connect the disk and download the files in it? I can remove some useless data maybe 🥲
yes but it would require free space on the disk, so that's out of the question unfortunately
Yeah you are right, but I am considering start a static file http server which require no space on disk like
npx vite, then download the files, is that possible?of course, but downloading files doesn't help you free up space
Actually I can start a FTP service and
1. download the sql files
2. clean the data
3. upload the slimmer sql file
But this is indeed quite troublesome 😂
and there's no pre-made FTP template, so that's something you'd have to come up with yourself
