If you use v6 or v7 of spatie/laravel-backup there is no longer a need to use this package. The development of this package has therefore been halted.** **Thanks for using olssonm/laravel-backup-shield!** Secure your backups ------------------- [](#secure-your-backups) **This package helps you encrypt and password-protect your backups taken with [Spatie's](https://github.com/spatie) fantastic [spatie/laravel-backup](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-backup)-package.** Backup Shield simply listens for when the .zip-file generated by Laravel-backup is done, grabs it and applies your password and encryption of your liking. *Using older versions of Laravel? Check out the [v1 branch](https://github.com/olssonm/laravel-backup-shield/tree/v1) (for Laravel 5.2) and the [v2 branch](https://github.com/olssonm/laravel-backup-shield/tree/v2).* Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) `php: ^7.3|^8.0` `ext-zip: ^1.14` `laravel: ^6|^7|^8` An appropriate zip-extension should be come with your PHP-install since PHP 7.2. If you for some reason don't have it installed – and don't want to install/upgrade it – look a versions prior to v3.4 of this package. Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require olssonm/laravel-backup-shield ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) Publish your configuration using `php artisan vendor:publish` and select `BackupShieldServiceProvider`. Or directly via `php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Olssonm\BackupShield\BackupShieldServiceProvider"`. You only have the ability to set two different options; password and encryption. ``` // Default configuration; backup-shield.php return [ 'password' => env('APP_KEY'), 'encryption' => \Olssonm\BackupShield\Encryption::ENCRYPTION_DEFAULT ]; ``` #### Password [](#password) Your password (*duh*). The default is the application key (`APP_KEY` in your .env-file). You might want to set something more appropriate. Remember to use long strings and to keep your password safe – **without it you will never be able to open your backup**. Set to `NULL` if you want to keep your backup without a password. #### Encryption [](#encryption) Set your type of encryption. Available options are: `\Olssonm\BackupShield\Encryption::ENCRYPTION_DEFAULT` (AES 128) `\Olssonm\BackupShield\Encryption::ENCRYPTION_WINZIP_AES_128` (AES 128) `\Olssonm\BackupShield\Encryption::ENCRYPTION_WINZIP_AES_192` (AES 192) `\Olssonm\BackupShield\Encryption::ENCRYPTION_WINZIP_AES_256` (AES 256) #### Regarding the layered archive [](#regarding-the-layered-archive) This package adds the backup-zip created by spatie/laravel-backup inside a new password protected archive. This is to disable its contents to be able to be viewed without a password – instead only backup.zip will be displayed. Becouse, even without a password, a zip's contents (i.e. the file- and folder names) can be extracted.
