In fact it still is, but the storage bin had changed. Yet we still don’t know how to handle it - there is a warning/error in server logs: No db.properties file found. Separate DB storage disabled

Too bad the csv file storage has been removed.

Now I’m screwed debugging my ever growing blynk project.

@Dmitriy could you please provide a guide on how to implement a db on the local server?
Couldn’t find it anywhere, neither on github nor the docs.

Ok. no time right now. But I created ticket for that - https://github.com/blynkkk/blynk-server/issues/506

@Dmitriy
So if possible we can do it for fixed size of data for example 1000 record or other limitted rules.

Sometimes we want data with second period so what can we do?

I want to know that can i do raw data for a time period ? For example a just day or same as other config users (widget size) we assign a size for raw data that never grow than.

If you use the history graph widget, after each daily API call in your sketch, get Blynk to send you a PUSH message to remind you to delete the pin data. This way data will be a maximum of 24 hours duration.

That’s the best I can come up with.

sorry no but i can learn it.

Hello I use blynk local server which is not connected to the internet. The export to csv format works only when there is internet .

@VINEET that’s correct. CSV export sends you email and sending email requires external SMTP server.

Thanks for the reply sir. Is there a workaround without external SMTP server?

Sure. You may install own SMTP server.

Local smtp server works like a charm ! but someone has to give a manual input to generate CSV data at the end of the day. Is there a way to automate generation of a CSV token …say every 6 or 7 hours?

This is what we are working right now. However, this feature will be available for DeviceTiles only. At least at the start - https://github.com/blynkkk/blynk-server/issues/1066

Wow great!
