It uses the amazing laravel package [spatie/laravel-backup](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-backup). This is a fork of Panakour Backup Plugin for OC Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) This backup package requires **PHP 7.1 or higher** with the [ZIP module](http://php.net/manual/en/book.zip.php) and **Laravel 5.5 or higher**. It's not compatible with Windows servers. The plugin needs free disk space where it can create backups. Ensure that you have **at least** as much free space as the total size of the files you want to backup. Make sure `mysqldump` is installed on your system if you want to backup MySQL databases. Make sure `pg_dump` is installed on your system if you want to backup PostgreSQL databases. Make sure `mongodump` is installed on your system if you want to backup Mongo databases. Features -------- [](#features) - With just a click you can: - Create backups of the whole application. - Create backups of the database only. - Create backups of the files only. - Currently support local and dropbox storage driver. - Support various Database Driver (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite and Mongo). - You can easily include and exclude some files using the UI. - Support gzip to reduce the database size. Usage ----- [](#usage) 1. To configure the backup system, from backend navigate to `Settings > System > Backup`. 2. To create your first backup, from backend navigate to the backup section from the top main menu. From there you can create and download your backups by click the buttons. Storage ------- [](#storage) ##### Dropbox usage [](#dropbox-usage) The first thing you need to do is get an authorization token at Dropbox. A token can be generated in the [App Console](https://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps) for any Dropbox API app. You'll find more info at [the Dropbox Developer Blog](https://blogs.dropbox.com/developers/2014/05/generate-an-access-token-for-your-own-account/). Then add to the `config/filesystems.php` file the followed array with your token and app name: ``` 'disks' => [ ... 'dropbox' => [ 'driver' => 'dropbox', 'app' => 'app-name', 'authorizationToken' => 'generated-access-token', ] ] ``` Be sure that you select `Dropbox` option from settings. ##### Webdav usage [](#webdav-usage) Then add to the `config/filesystems.php` file the followed array with your token and app name: ``` 'disks' => [ ... 'webdav' => [ 'driver' => 'webdav', 'baseUri' => 'YOUR_WEBDAV_DOMAIN', 'path_prefix' => '/remote.php/dav/files/USERNAME/', //for nextcloud 'path_alias' => '', 'userName' => 'USER', 'password' => 'PASSWORD', ], ] ``` Be sure that you select `Webdav` option from settings. Dumping the database -------------------- [](#dumping-the-database) `mysqldump` and `pg_dump` are used to dump the database. If they are not installed in a default location, you can add a key named `dump.dump_binary_path` in Winters's own `database.php` config file. **Only fill in the path to the binary**. Do not include the name of the binary itself. If your database dump takes a long time, you might exceed the default timeout of 60 seconds. You can set a higher (or lower) limit by providing a `dump.timeout` config key which specifies, in seconds, how long the command may run. Here's an example for MySQL: ``` //config/database.php 'connections' => [ 'mysql' => [ 'driver' => 'mysql' ..., 'dump' => [ 'dump_binary_path' => '/path/to/the/binary', // only the path, so without `mysqldump` or `pg_dump` 'use_single_transaction', 'timeout' => 60 * 5, // 5 minute timeout 'exclude_tables' => ['table1', 'table2'], 'add_extra_option' => '--optionname=optionvalue', ] ], ``` Also you can create backups from the command line using `Artisan`.
