Caprover backup using CLI

marekbrze commented 11 months ago

Hi all,

It would be great to add Caprover Backup action to CLI. It would enable to do scheduled backups along with the docker volume backups.

It's already possible, you can just use a bash script like this:

    API_TOKEN=$(curl $CAPROVER_URL/api/v2/login \
        -H 'x-namespace: captain' \
        -H 'content-type: application/json;charset=UTF-8' \
        --data-raw "{\"password\":\"$CAPROVER_PASSWORD\"}" \
        --compressed --silent | jq -r ".data.token")

    DOWNLOAD_TOKEN=$(curl $CAPROVER_URL/api/v2/user/system/createbackup \
        -H "x-captain-auth: $API_TOKEN" \
        -H 'x-namespace: captain' \
        --data-raw '{"postDownloadFileName":"backup.tar"}' \
        --compressed --silent | jq -r ".data.downloadToken")

    if [ ${#DOWNLOAD_TOKEN} -le 10 ]; then
        echo "DOWNLOAD_TOKEN must be at least 10 char long"
        exit 1
    fi

    wget "$CAPROVER_URL/api/v2/downloads/?namespace=captain&downloadToken=$DOWNLOAD_TOKEN" -O backup.tar
