Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require acpl/flarum-db-snapshots ``` Create Snapshot --------------- [](#create-snapshot) Create a database snapshot using the `snapshot:create` command. Basic usage: ``` # Dump to storage/snapshots/snapshot-Y-m-d-His.sql php flarum snapshot:create # Dump to a specific path/file php flarum snapshot:create /path/to/backup.sql php flarum snapshot:create ../backups/forum.sql # Dump with compression (based on extension) php flarum snapshot:create /backups/dump.sql.gz # gzip compression php flarum snapshot:create /backups/dump.sql.bz2 # bzip2 compression # Create a backup on a live site without locking tables (recommended for production) php flarum snapshot:create --single-transaction --quick --lock-tables=false ``` ### Options for Creation [](#options-for-creation) - `--compress`: Compression type (`gz` or `bz2`). - `--include-tables=table1,table2`: Include only specific tables in the snapshot. - `--exclude-tables=table1,table2`: Exclude specific tables from the snapshot. - `--skip-structure`: Skip table structure and do not include `CREATE TABLE` statements. - `--no-data`: Dump schema only, without row data. - `--skip-auto-increment`: Skip `AUTO_INCREMENT` values. - `--no-column-statistics`: Disable column statistics. - `--binary-path=/path/to/binary`: Custom path to the `mysqldump` binary. Most standard `mysqldump` options are also supported, such as `--single-transaction`, `--quick`, and `--lock-tables`. See the [mysqldump documentation](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/mysqldump.html) for details. Load Snapshot ------------- [](#load-snapshot) Restore a database from an existing snapshot using the `snapshot:load` command. Basic usage: ``` # Restore from a standard SQL file php flarum snapshot:load /path/to/backup.sql # Restore directly from a compressed file (automatically decompressed on the fly) php flarum snapshot:load /path/to/backup.sql.gz php flarum snapshot:load /path/to/backup.sql.bz2 ``` ### Options for Loading [](#options-for-loading) - `--drop-tables`: Drop all existing tables before loading the snapshot. Useful when restoring a full backup into an existing database to avoid conflicts. - `--binary-path=/path/to/binary`: Custom path to the `mysql` binary. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - `mysql` and `mysqldump` binaries - `gzip` for `.gz` snapshots - `bzip2` for `.bz2` snapshots Links ----- [](#links) - [Packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/acpl/flarum-db-snapshots) - [GitHub](https://github.com/android-com-pl/flarum-db-snapshots) - [Discuss](https://discuss.flarum.org/d/38880-flarum-database-snapshots) ### Health Score 39 — LowBetter than 86% of packages Maintenance88 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity9 Limited adoption so far Community9 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity43 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 86.7% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
