request: backup all PostgreSQL databases except a blacklist #96

Open bjmgeek opened 7 years ago

For PostgreSQL backups, the choices are either an explicit list of databases, or the keyword __ALL__ to indicate backing up all databases. I'd like to be able to backup all databases, except for a given list. Specifically, I have one database that is huge, and only contains easily replaceable data, which I'd like to skip backing up (it's 11 GB every time it gets backed up). However, if I add new databases later, I'd like them to still get backed up. This would be comparable to the BM_MYSQL_DBEXCLUDE option for MySQL backups.
