Automate and schedule your Laravel application database to your preferred storage filesystem
============================================================================================

[](#automate-and-schedule-your-laravel-application-database-to-your-preferred-storage-filesystem)

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require zarulizham/laravel-database-backup-scheduler
```

You can publish and run the migrations with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="database-backup-scheduler-migrations"
php artisan migrate
```

This package relies on `spatie/media-library`. If your project did not use `spatie/media-library` package, publish its migration and/or config file.

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="medialibrary-config"
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="medialibrary-migrations"
php artisan migrate
```

You can publish the config file with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="database-backup-scheduler-config"
```

To custom location of backup path, refer [Spatie documentation](https://spatie.be/docs/laravel-medialibrary/v11/advanced-usage/using-a-custom-directory-structure)

This is the contents of the published config file. You may modify as per your needs.

```
return [
    'connections' => [
        'mysql' => [
            'excludeTables' => [],
            'storage' => env('FILESYSTEM_DISK', 'local'),
        ],
    ],
];
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Place these two scheduler in `app/Console/Kernel.php` (<= Laravel 10) or `routes/console.php` (>= Laravel 11)

```
$schedule->command('db:backup')->dailyAt('00:00')
    ->environments('production');

$schedule->command('db:backup:prune')->dailyAt('00:00')
    ->environments('production');
```

To specify custom retention days for backup, specify `--days` option on `db:backup:prune` command. Default 14 days.
