OctoberCMS backend (OC1)

Just look for 'Small Backup' in search field in:

• Edit composer.json by adding new repository

"repositories": [
    {
      "type": "vcs",
      "url": "https://github.com/webula-cz/smallbackup"
    }
]

• run in command line

composer require webula/smallbackup-plugin

• Default backups folder storage/app/backup
• Default cleanup interval 7 days

You can download created backups from plugin Settings tabs Database, Theme and Storage or you can get it directly from backup folder (eg. with FTP).

It's recommended to put your backup folder into .htaccess' Black listed folders, e.g. RewriteRule ^storage/app/backup/.* index.php [L,NC].

Must be allowed in plugin's Settings!

There are default scheduler jobs for database and active theme to be backed up once a day.

See October CMS docs about scheduling jobs.

If you cannot run Cron command directly on your server/hosting, you can create custom CMS page like this:

title = "artisan"
url = "/artisan/schedule"
is_hidden = 0
==
<?php
    function onStart()
    {
        wsb_backup_db($once = false, $connectionName = null,$noCleanup = false);
        wsb_backup_theme($once = false, $themeName = null, $noCleanup = false);
        wsb_backup_storage($once = false, $cmsStorage = null, $noCleanup = false);
    }
?>
==

You can create manual backup in plugin's Settings by clicking button Backup now on Database or Theme tab.

There are console commands ready:

• php artisan smallbackup:db [connectionName] [--no-cleanup] [--once] (connectionName is optional and respect config/database.php settings)

• php artisan smallbackup:theme [themeName] [--no-cleanup] [--once] (themeName is optional and can be any folder name in themes/)

• php artisan smallbackup:storage [cmsStorage] [--no-cleanup] [--once] (cmsStorage is optional and can be any storage registered in cms.storage config)
