deinstapel/mcli-database-backup repository overview

⁠mcli-database-backup

This is the minio/mc image with some additional database clients, which we need for backups.

1. Create a configuration for your bucket. mcli config host add deinstapel $S3_ENDPOINT $ACCESS_KEY $SECRET_KEY --api "s3v4"
2. Create a backup from your database and pipe it into your bucket. pg_dump -U username -d database | mcli pipe deinstapel/bucket/folder/filename.sql

⁠S3 to S3 mirroring

• Use s3_to_s3.sh as entrypoint
• Mount a service account with permissions to read configmaps in the namespace into your pod
• Populate environment for local and remote s3
  • LOCAL_S3_URL - Local S3 server address
  • LOCAL_ACCESS_KEY - Local S3 access key
  • LOCAL_SECRET_KEY - Local S3 secret key
  • vice versa for REMOTE
  • REMOTE_PREFIX - Prefix for the remote backups bucket names.
• This will e.g. copy from local/bucket to remote/prefix-bucket-s3-backup
