Requirements

Note: Currently works only with docker compose

• Every docker container you want to backup, you need to mark with label

- dbackup.on=true

• The container that is DBackUp, you need to mark with label

- dbackup.runner=this

• If you want to use copy over ssh, you need to provide a ssh_key, see SCP Repository.

Example .env

ON_EVENTS_BACKUP=true
PERIODIC_SCAN=true

REPOS=telegram,scp

TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=your_token
TELEGRAM_USER_IDS=user_id,user_id2

REMOTE_ADDRESSES=root@some.random.ip.address:/destination_folder,root@some.other.ip.address:/destination_folder2
