    Database Backup Manager

    Database Backup Manager

    Database backup manager for dumping to and restoring databases from S3

    This package provides a framework-agnostic database backup manager for dumping to and restoring databases from S3, Dropbox, FTP, SFTP, and Rackspace Cloud. Backup the development database to Amazon S3. The S3 backup path will be test/backup.sql.gz in the end, when gzip is done with it. Once installed, the package must be bootstrapped (initial configuration) before it can be used. We recommend using the vagrant configuration supplied with this package for development and contribution. Simply install VirtualBox, Vagrant, and Ansible then run vagrant up in the root folder. A virtual machine specifically designed for the development of the package will be built and launched for you. Backup to / restore from any configured filesystem. Configure your filesystems. Configure your databases.

    Laravel Backup

    Laravel Backup

    A package to backup your Laravel app

    This Laravel package creates a backup of your application. The backup is a zipfile that contains all files in the directories you specify along with a dump of your database. The backup can be stored on any of the filesystems you have configured. The package can also notify you via Mail, Slack or any notification provider when something goes wrong with your backups. Feeling paranoid about backups? Don't be! You can backup your application to multiple filesystems at once. Once installed, making a backup of your files and databases is very easy. In addition to making the backup, the package can also clean up old backups, monitor the health of the backups, and show an overview of all backups. If you need to backup multiple servers, take a look at our laravel-backup-server package.

    bKappa

    bKappa

    Cross-platform incremental backup

    bKappa is a 2009 experiment in crude but transparent and cross-platform incremental backup. bKappa backups are simple directory trees and lists of files. They are easy to browse and examine and do not use symbolic or hard links. It is crude in the sense that bKappa only tracks files by name, not by content. This means it cannot detect that a file has been renamed and makes full copies of renamed and partially modified files. It generates standalone restore scripts for the POSIX shell and PowerShell. While it saw real use, bKappa isn't tested enough to be your main backup software. If you are looking for that, BorgBackup and restic are good options as of 2024. Warning! Old 1.x versions of bKappa are insecure. Do not use them. Because backup metadata is serialized with the "pickle" Python module (https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/pickle.html), a malicious backup can take over your machine.
