configure dump scripts for mysql, postgres and ldap
AGPL-3.0 License
This is a module for deploying a backup solution for mysql,postgresql and LDAP databases.
It configures two things, the dump_databases
script in /usr/local/bin/
, and
a sytemd timer+service to start it. multiple parameters are exposed to
configure the history you want to keep and also the backup interval. All
parameters have puppet-strings
documentation in the REFERENCE.md. Dependingon the database you
backup, multiple CLI tools are required:
The script always assumes that it's executed on the same machine that runs the database. The dependencies aren't managed by this module.
You can simply include the class and it will do dumps every 1 hour and never delete them:
include dbbackup
you can also configure parameter via Hiera or Puppet DSL. An example:
dbbackup::backuphistory: 730
dbbackup::destination: '/var/dumps'
dbbackup::interval: '2h'
This module has several unit tests and linters configured. You can execute them by running:
bundle exec rake test
