Backup is a Laravel package that allow the creation and restoration of database backups in an easy way.

New version 3.* replaces older versions and works with laravel 5.*

Begin by installing this package through Composer.

You can run:

composer require freedfelipe/backup 3.*

Or edit your project's composer.json file to require paulvl/backup.

    "require": {
        "freedfelipe/backup": "3.*"
    }

Next, update Composer from the Terminal:

composer update

Once the package's installation completes, the final step is to add the service provider. Open config/app.php, and add a new item to the providers array:

Backup\BackupServiceProvider::class,

Finally publish package's configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Backup\BackupServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Then the file config/backup.php will be created.

That's it! You're ready to go. Run the artisan command from the Terminal to see the new backup commands.

php artisan

To make a backup of you current aplication's database you have to run:

php artisan backup:mysql-dump

This will create an .sql file on your configured local-storage.path like /this/is/my/path/dbname_20150101201505.sql, this file is named using current datetime. If you want a custom name run:

php artisan backup:mysql-dump custom_name

This will create an .sql file on your configured local-storage.path like /this/is/my/path/custom_name.sql

Enable file compression regardless if is disabled in the configuration file. This option will always overwrite --no-compress option

php artisan backup:mysql-dump --compress

Disable file compression regardless if is enabled in the configuration file. This option will be always overwrited by --compress option

php artisan backup:mysql-dump --no-compress

To restore a backup to your current aplication's database you have to run:

php artisan mysql:restore filename

This will display a list of your current backup files stored on your configured local-storage.disk.

Especifiy a backup file name
