edX Backup

Introduction

Dump mysql and mongodb databases. Uses mydumper for mysql and mongodump for mongodb.

Usage

Prepare a file with info about yout mysql and mongo databases. For mysql a user with FLUSH privileges is needed:

{
    "mysql": [{
        "dbname": "test",
        "host": "127.0.0.1",
        "user": "root",
        "password": "foobar",
        "port": "3309"
    }],
    "mongo": {
        "dbname": "edxapp",
        "host": "localhost",
        "user": "edxapp",
        "password": "secret",
        "port": "27017"
    }
}

Save the file and point edxdump to it:

docker run \
    --network host \
    -v /path/to/dump/destination:/destination \
    -v /path/to/config/file.json:/etc/edxbackup.json \
    --rm \
    abstract2tech/edx-backup edxbackup edx_dump
