EasyEngine Backup and Restore Command #19

Open rahul286 opened 6 years ago

rahul286 commented 6 years ago

This can be divided in two parts.

Create a backup

We already do this for ee update command as mentioned by @asif2bd in https://github.com/EasyEngine/easyengine/issues/704.

The database dump can be as simple as wp db export. Then tar backuphtdocs.

Transfer a backup

  1. We already test duplicity - https://easyengine.io/tutorials/backups/duplicity-amazon-s3/
  2. Use https://rclone.org/ - not yet tested but seems good

EE Commands

Something like:

# instant backup/restore
ee backup example.com [--db|--full|--files] [--path=/to/backup]
ee restore example.com [--db|--full|--files] [--path=/from/backup]

## backup config
ee backup config set-remote --type=s3 --s3key=value-1 --s3secret=value-2
ee backup config get-remote

ee backup config set-interval

Thanks for taking note at last! <3

What about Restic with rclone? Restic would do the heavy lifting and rclone can be used with it to access Google Drive for example which is very important to me.

Would also be nice to get an email when the backup is done or failed.

Maybe VersionPress could be used for backup and staging. See here: https://github.com/EasyEngine/feature-requests/issues/22
