This repository wraps gobackup (and dreitier's gobackup flavour) and interpolator in a single, usable Docker image.

gobackup s a tool to dump databases and create backups of folders. It has various storage targets like local, scp and S3. Unfortunately, the current repository provides only the binary without any additional dependencies. You can easily deploy this Docker image into your Kubernetes cluster to create automatic backups.

• Mount the gobackup configuration file to /etc/gobackup/config-raw.yaml
• Placeholders in the configuration file like ${VAR} are replaced by corresponding environment variables
• The resulting file is copied to /etc/gobackup/gobackup.yaml
• When no arguments are passed to the container, a simple gobackup perform is executed and the container exits.
• When periodic backups are desired, the container must be launched with the arguments _cron ${cronExpression} like so.

Single backup:

docker run -v /path/to/my-gobackup-config.yaml:/etc/gobackup/config-raw.yaml dreitier/gobackup

Periodic backup every day at midnight:

docker run -v /path/to/my-gobackup-config.yaml:/etc/gobackup/config-raw.yaml dreitier/gobackup cron "0 0 * * *"

GitHub lacks the feature that repositories can easily subscribe to newer builds from upstream repository. Because of this, at the moment you have to manually push a tag to create a new gobackup release.

When creating a tag, use the tag format ${TAG}(-${GOBACKUP_GITHUB_REPOSITORY:huacnlee})?. The first part before the - is the artifact, provided in the ${GOBACKUP_GITHUB_REPOSITORY}. ${GOBACKUP_GITHUB_REPOSITORY} is set to huacnlee by default.

docker tag v1.0.1
docker push v1.0.1 origin

docker tag 20220722-dreitier
docker push 20220722-dreitier

# OR

docker tag v1.0.1_custom_pr-dreitier
docker push v1.0.1_custom_pr-dreitier origin
