Backup & Migration packs your whole forum into a single portable `.flarum` file: database, uploads, storage and extensions. Restore it on the same install or on a brand new server and keep going. I wrote it after one too many rounds of the mysqldump and zip dance while moving forums between hosts. It ended up becoming something close to what All-in-One WP Migration is for WordPress, just built natively for Flarum. What it does ------------ [](#what-it-does) - Exports everything into one streaming `.flarum` file, so multi GB forums never need to fit in memory - Lets you pick what goes in: database, assets, storage and individual extensions - Restores with per section and per extension checkboxes, resumable in chunks - Migrates between database engines: export from MySQL, restore on PostgreSQL, MariaDB or SQLite - Rewrites the forum URL automatically when restoring on a different host - Encrypts archives with libsodium when you ask it to, including transfers to another server's public key - Ships `composer.json` and `composer.lock` inside the archive, so vendor extensions stay reproducible Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require ramon/backup php flarum migrate php flarum cache:clear ``` Then enable Backup & Migration on the Extensions page of the admin panel. Command line ------------ [](#command-line) The same engine runs as console commands, with no HTTP timeout and no browser tab to babysit. Best route for large forums and cron jobs. ``` php flarum backup:export --all # everything php flarum backup:export --db --target=postgres # database only, retargeted to another engine php flarum backup:import /backups/forum.flarum --yes ``` A restore replaces the destination data, so `backup:import` refuses to run without `--yes`. Use `--help` on either command for the full list of flags. About encryption ---------------- [](#about-encryption) Encrypted archives use a libsodium sealed box wrapping a per archive stream key. The public key lives in the database, the private key only in `config.php`. Keep that private key safe: without it an encrypted archive cannot be opened. License ------- [](#license) [MIT](LICENSE).
