Backups
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Backups are defined by the service developer in the backups section of the Manifest. By default, this action is a command executed within a Docker container.
|
|
|
|
StartOS provides a system utility for creating backups. This system utility is the `duplicity <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplicity_(software)>`_ library that is run inside the Docker image entitled _compat_.
|
|
|
|
The path to be backed up can be specified in the Manifest. In the create backup example below, it is the last argument:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: yaml
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
# create backup
|
|
entrypoint: compat
|
|
# Arguments to pass into the entrypoint executable. In this example, the full command run will be: `compat duplicity <package-id> /mnt/backup /root/data`
|
|
args:
|
|
- duplicity
|
|
- <package-id>
|
|
- /mnt/backup
|
|
# For duplicity, the backup mount point needs to be something other than `/root`, so we default to `/root/data`
|
|
- /root/data
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
For restoration purposes, it might be beneficial to ignore certain files or folders. For instance, ignore the shared/public folder that is mounted for dependencies that expose this feature as it causes data inconsistencies on restore.
|
|
|
|
In this case, create a ``.backupignore`` file in the mounted volume directory. This file contains a list of relative paths to the ignored files.
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
The `BTCPay Server wrapper <https://github.com/Start9Labs/btcpayserver-wrapper/blob/master/configurator/src/templates/.backupignore.templates>`_ demonstrates a good use of a backupignore template.
|
|
|
|
Ultimately, ``/datadir/.backupignore`` gets populated with:
|
|
|
|
.. code::
|
|
|
|
/root/volumes/btcpayserver/start9/public
|
|
/root/volumes/btcpayserver/start9/shared
