WebExcess.Flow.Backup
=====================

[](#webexcessflowbackup)

**An incremental & encrypted Backup Package for Neos & Flow Framework**

Note: This package is still experimental and not for production. I'm happy about every inputs!

Important
---------

[](#important)

**Test it tough!** And test it on the stage of your final environment.

The backup files are encrypted. If you lose the keyfile, your backup is worthless.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require webexcess/flow-backup

```

Quick start
-----------

[](#quick-start)

First, create an encryption keyfile:

```
./flow backup:key

```

Create a Backup:

```
./flow backup:now

```

List available Backups:

```
./flow backup:list

```

Restore a Backup:

```
./flow backup:restore

```

Remove all Backups:

```
./flow backup:clear

```

Neos CMS Backend Module
-----------------------

[](#neos-cms-backend-module)

There is a Backend Module for Neos CMS where you have easy access to the backup functions:

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

If you really have to backup more than the Database and the Persistent Files, feel free to add more directories.

Settings.yaml

```
WebExcess:
  Flow:
    Backup:
      HistoryLimit: 30
      Folders:
        Sources:
          - %FLOW_PATH_DATA%Persistent/
          # - %FLOW_PATH_ROOT%Configuration/
          # - %FLOW_PATH_PACKAGES%Plugins/
          # - %FLOW_PATH_PACKAGES%Framework/
          # - %FLOW_PATH_PACKAGES%Libraries/
        LocalTarget: %FLOW_PATH_DATA%Backup/

```
