mysql-backup

Back up mysql databases to... anywhere!

Please see the official home and documentation

Overview

mysql-backup is a simple way to do MySQL database backups and restores, as well as manage your backups.

It has the following features:

• dump and restore
• dump to local filesystem or to SMB server
• select database user and password
• connect to any container running on the same system
• select how often to run a dump
• select when to start the first dump, whether time of day or relative to container start time
• prune backups older than a specific time period or quantity

Please see CONTRIBUTORS.md for a list of contributors.

Versions

This is the latest version, based on the complete rebuild of the codebase for 1.0.0 release based on golang, completed in late 2023.

Support

Support is available at the databack Slack channel; register here. We accept issues here and general support questions on Slack.

If you are interested in commercial support, please contact us via Slack above.

Running mysql-backup

mysql-backup is available both as a single standalone binary, and as a container image.

Backup

To run a backup, launch mysql-backup - as a container or as a binary - with the correct parameters.

For example:

bash
docker run -d --restart=always -e DB_DUMP_FREQUENCY=60 -e DB_DUMP_BEGIN=2330 -e DB_DUMP_TARGET=/local/file/path -e DB_SERVER=my-db-address -v /local/file/path:/db databack/mysql-backup dump

# or

mysql-backup dump --frequency=60 --begin=2330 --target=/local/file/path --server=my-db-address

# or to connect to a local mysqld via the unix domain socket as the current user

mysql-backup dump --frequency=60 --begin=2330 --target=/local/file/path --server=/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

Or mysql-backup --config-file=/path/to/config/file.yaml where /path/to/config/file.yaml is a file with the following contents:

yaml
server: my-db-address
dump:
  frequency: 60
  begin: 2330
  target: /local/file/path

The above will run a dump every 60 minutes, beginning at the next 2330 local time, from the database accessible in the container my-db-address.

bash
docker run -d --restart=always -e DB_USER=user123 -e DB_PASS=pass123 -e DB_DUMP_FREQUENCY=60 -e DB_DUMP_BEGIN=2330 -e DB_DUMP_TARGET=/db -e DB_SERVER=my-db-address -v /local/file/path:/db databack/mysql-backup dump

# or

mysql-backup dump --user=user123 --pass=pass123 --frequency=60 --begin=2330 --target=/local/file/path --server=my-db-address --port=3306

See backup for a more detailed description of performing backups.

See configuration for a detailed list of all configuration options.

Restore

To perform a restore, you simply run the process in reverse. You still connect to a database, but instead of the dump command, you pass it the restore command. Instead of a dump target, you pass it a restore target.

Dump Restore

If you wish to run a restore to an existing database, you can use mysql-backup to do a restore.

You need only the following environment variables:

You should *** the use of --env-file= to keep your secrets out of your shell history

• DB_SERVER: hostname or unix domain socket path (starting with a slash) to connect to database. Required.
• DB_PORT: port to use to connect to database. Optional, defaults to 3306
• DB_USER: username for the database
• DB_PASS: password for the database
• DB_NAMES: names of databases to restore separated by spaces. Required if SINGLE_DATABASE=true.
• SINGLE_DATABASE: If is set to true, DB_NAMES is required and must contain exactly one database name. Mysql command will then run with --database=$DB_NAMES flag. This avoids the need of USE <database>; statement, which is useful when restoring from a file saved with SINGLE_DATABASE set to true.
• DB_RESTORE_TARGET: path to the actual restore file, which should be a compressed dump file. The target can be an absolute path, which should be volume mounted, an smb or S3 URL, similar to the target.
• DB_DUMP_DEBUG: if true, dump copious outputs to the container logs while restoring.
• To use the S3 driver AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY and AWS_DEFAULT_REGION will need to be defined.

Examples:

1. Restore from a local file: docker run -e DB_SERVER=gotodb.example.com -e DB_USER=user123 -e DB_PASS=pass123 -e DB_RESTORE_TARGET=/backup/db_backup_201509271627.gz -v /local/path:/backup databack/mysql-backup restore
2. Restore from a local file using ssl: docker run -e DB_SERVER=gotodb.example.com -e DB_USER=user123 -e DB_PASS=pass123 -e DB_RESTORE_TARGET=/backup/db_backup_201509271627.gz -e RESTORE_OPTS="--ssl-cert /certs/client-cert.pem --ssl-key /certs/client-key.pem" -v /local/path:/backup -v /local/certs:/certs databack/mysql-backup restore
3. Restore from an SMB file: docker run -e DB_SERVER=gotodb.example.com -e DB_USER=user123 -e DB_PASS=pass123 -e DB_RESTORE_TARGET=smb://smbserver/share1/backup/db_backup_201509271627.gz databack/mysql-backup restore
4. Restore from an S3 file: docker run -e DB_SERVER=gotodb.example.com -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=awskeyid -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=secret -e AWS_REGION=eu-central-1 -e DB_USER=user123 -e DB_PASS=pass123 -e DB_RESTORE_TARGET=s3://bucket/path/db_backup_201509271627.gz databack/mysql-backup restore

Restore specific databases

If you have multiple schemas in your database, you can choose to restore only some of them.

To do this, you must restore using DB_NAMES to specify the schemas you want restored.

When doing this, schemas will be restored with their original name. To restore under other names, you must use SINGLE_DATABASE=true on both dump and restore, and you can only do it one schema at a time.

Examples:

1. Dump a multi-schemas database and restore only some of them:
   • docker run -e DB_SERVER=gotodb.example.com -e DB_USER=user123 -e DB_PASS=pass123 -v /local/path:/backup databack/mysql-backup dump
   • docker run -e DB_SERVER=gotodb.example.com -e DB_USER=user123 -e DB_PASS=pass123 -e DB_RESTORE_TARGET=/backup/db_backup_201509271627.gz -e DB_NAMES="database1 database3" -v /local/path:/backup databack/mysql-backup restore
2. Dump and restore a schema under a different name:
   • docker run -e DB_SERVER=gotodb.example.com -e DB_USER=user123 -e DB_PASS=pass123 -e SINGLE_DATABASE=true -e DB_NAMES=database1 -v /local/path:/backup databack/mysql-backup dump
   • docker run -e DB_SERVER=gotodb.example.com -e DB_USER=user123 -e DB_PASS=pass123 -e DB_RESTORE_TARGET=/backup/db_backup_201509271627.gz -e SINGLE_DATABASE=true DB_NAMES=newdatabase1 -v /local/path:/backup databack/mysql-backup restore
