Esphome issue

I am using esphome for my sonoffs for some time now and I am very happy with it. Although I made a mistake and now I lost all the yamls from esphome dashboard. Is it possible to extract the yaml from the already running firmware of the sonoff ? It would be really helpful so I don’t have to make it from scratch.

I don’t think that this is possible. Esphome uses the yaml file to compile a firmware. There are no yaml in the sonoff

No it is not possible. Use your backups.

What do you mean “lost”? You cannot “lose” files? You can delete them, or have a storage failure. But they don’t just disappear.

@nickrout It was a docker failure that made me lose them. But anyway I found an old backup and fixed my issue.

If you aren’t already, use a mapped volume from the docker container to the host for the yaml files.
This way if the container is removed, the yaml files are saved.

Cheers!

As per the instructions :slight_smile:
