Database backups #30

Open joeflack4 opened 6 years ago

joeflack4 commented 6 years ago

Description

We should have database backups.

Since our database is not updated often, we should probably just trigger the backup to take place upon every write (i.e. when a new dataset is uploaded).

Consequently, this would allow us to also implement a faster and more stable rollback mechanism, as the currently envisioned rollback mechanism would take a stored, raw .xlsx file and run the database initialization script on it.
