Restore deleted images Plone 6

Having a ABCPlone6Website.blabla with ABCPlone6Staging.blabla, let’s say you delete some images and you want to restore them from staging website.

My method was to:

1. Download the images with a script (I had the list of broken images urls) from staging website
2. Save them in a folders structure like the one used in the website.
3. Manually upload in production website one by one following the folders structure and the broken urls list.

The script:

import os
import requests

PREFIX = '/home/ghitabizau/work/ABCPlone6Website/temp/'


def create_folders(folders):
    try:
        path = PREFIX + "/".join(folders)
        os.makedirs(path)
    except Exception:
        print("Already exists:", path)


def save_image(url):
    filename = url.split('/')[-1]
    download_url = url + '/@@download/image'
    img_data = requests.get(download_url).content
    folders = url.split('https://')[-1].split("/")[0:-1]
    path = PREFIX + "/".join(folders)
    with open(path + '/' + filename, 'wb') as handler:
        handler.write(img_data)

    print("Saved image")


urls = [
    "https://ABCPlone6Staging.blabla/en/how-to-guides/how-to-download-spatial-data/how-to-use-the-shopping-cart/htg-shopping-cart-popup.png",
    "https://ABCPlone6Staging.blabla/en/globe-from-space.jpg",
    "https://ABCPlone6Staging.blabla/en/products/vegetation/legends/lsp/length.png",
    ... other 250 items ...
]

index = 0
for url in urls:
    if 'legends' not in url:
        continue

    index += 1

    folders = url.split('https://')[-1].split("/")[0:-1]

    create_folders(folders)
    save_image(url)
