Backup your data (mysql or pgsql dumps, media files, scripts, etc) in private git repositories (bitbucket or github).
Important: I know - this is a very hardcore way to save data. But I need collect my sql diff's.
It scripts for test this possibility.
It is a very simple (without 'pip/easy_install' and install requirements)!
Clone/download this repository in any folder. Enjoy! ;)
-
Install git:
$ sudo apt-get install git
-
Configure git:
$ git config --global user.name "My User Name"
$ git config --global user.email "myemail@gmail.com"
-
Generate SSH key in server for your repositories hoster (github, bitbucket).
Create config file (*.ini syntax) for all backups (databases, files):
[mysql_database]
; settings for backup MySQL database
type = mysql
db_host = localhost
; db_host or db_socket
; db_socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
db_port = 3306
db_user = project
db_password = pwd
db_name = first_db
backup_dir = /home/backups/mysql_first_db
git_remote = ssh://git@bitbucket.org/user/private_repo.git
[pgsql_database]
; settings for backup PostgreSQL
type = pgsql
db_host = localhost
db_port = 5432
db_user = project
db_password = pwd
db_name = database_name
backup_dir = /home/backups/pgsql_db
git_remote = git@github.com:user/private_repo.git
[scripts_backup]
; settings for backup scripts (any files)
type = files
; copy all files from files_dir to backup_dir
; create in files_dir .gitignore file for exclude any files/dirs
files_dir = /home/user/src
backup_dir = /home/backups/src
git_remote = git@github.com:user/private_src_repo.git
Run manually (for fix errors) and add this command in crontab:
/path/to/git_backup_tool/git_backuper.py --config=/path/to/config.ini
Get profit!
$ python -m unittest tests
