How to Upgrade to Codeanywhere v7

Ready to upgrade to Codeanywhere v7?

Follow this straightforward guide to transition with ease and manage your data transfer using GitHub.

Step 1: Activate Your New Plan

• Go to app.codeanywhere.com and register using your preferred method.
• Select and activate the plan that suits your needs.

Step 2: Backup Your Data

• Direct data transfer to v7 is not available, so you must back up your data first.

• The best way to do this is through a Git service like GitHub.

Step 3: Data Transfer via GitHub

Push Your Data to GitHub

• In your existing Codeanywhere workspace, push your data to a GitHub repository. For this, you can use the user interface or simply open the terminal.

1# Add remote repository as origin
2git remote add origin <repository_url>
3
4# Stage all changes
5git add .
6
7# Commit changes
8git commit -m "Backup data"
9
10# Push changes to GitHub
11git push origin master 
12

For instructions on this process, refer to GitHub’s guides on remote repository commits.

Pull Data into Codeanywhere v7

• In the new version, create a workspace by providing the URL of your GitHub repository.
• This action clones the repository and sets up your workspace with the data from GitHub.

1# Clone the repository
2git clone <repository_url>
