Staging Sync Checklist (MySQL)

This is the exact, minimal checklist to sync live SQL → staging MySQL.

1) Point app to MySQL

Edit app/.env (or set in Coolify ENV):

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=YOUR_MYSQL_HOST
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=YOUR_DB
DB_USERNAME=YOUR_USER
DB_PASSWORD=YOUR_PASS

2) Run migrations + import

cd /Users/dwindown/Developments/dewemoji/app
php artisan migrate
php artisan dewemoji:import-live-sql /Users/dwindown/Developments/dewemoji-live-backend/dewemojiAPI_DB.sql --truncate

3) Quick sanity checks

php artisan tinker --execute="echo DB::table('emojis')->count().PHP_EOL;"
php artisan tinker --execute="echo DB::table('emoji_keywords')->count().PHP_EOL;"

Expected: emojis ~ 2131, emoji_keywords ~ 13420.

Notes

• Live users + sessions are imported into legacy_users + legacy_sessions.
• Licenses/activations/usage logs are imported into current tables for parity.
