laravel-backup
Backup and restore database support for Laravel 4 applications
Installation
- Run the following command:
$ composer require schickling/backup
- Add
Schickling\Backup\BackupServiceProvider
to your config/app.php
Usage
Backup
Creates a dump file in app/storage/dumps
$ php artisan db:backup
Use specific database
$ php artisan db:backup --database=mysql
Upload to AWS S3
$ php artisan db:backup --upload-s3 your-bucket
You can use the --keep-only-s3
option if you don't want to keep a local copy of the SQL dump.
Uses the aws/aws-sdk-php-laravel package which needs to be configured.
Restore
Paths are relative to the app/storage/dumps folder.
Restore a dump
$ php artisan db:restore dump.sql
List dumps
$ php artisan db:restore
Configuration
Since version 0.5.0
this package follows the recommended standard for configuration. In order to configure this package please run the following command:
$ php artisan config:publish schickling/backup
All settings are optional and have reasonable default values.
return array(
// add a backup folder in the app/database/ or your dump folder
'path' => app_path() . '/database/backup/',
// add the path to the restore and backup command of mysql
// this exemple is if your are using MAMP server on a mac
// on windows: 'C:\\...\\mysql\\bin\\'
// on linux: '/usr/bin/'
// trailing slash is required
'mysql' => array(
'dump_command_path' => '/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/',
'restore_command_path' => '/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/',
),
// s3 settings
's3' => array(
'path' => 'your/s3/dump/folder'
)
// Use GZIP compression
'compress' => false,
);

You need to have mysqldump
