#### 🔐 Encrypted Backups (v3.0)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Encrypt backups with AES-256-GCM for secure storage:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup backup single myapp_db --encrypt --encryption-key-file key.txt
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Encryption Options:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `--encrypt` - Enable AES-256-GCM encryption
|
||||||
|
- `--encryption-key-file STRING` - Path to encryption key file (32 bytes, raw or base64)
|
||||||
|
- `--encryption-key-env STRING` - Environment variable containing encryption key (default: DBBACKUP_ENCRYPTION_KEY)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Examples:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Generate encryption key
|
||||||
|
head -c 32 /dev/urandom | base64 > encryption.key
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Encrypted backup
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup backup single production_db \
|
||||||
|
--encrypt \
|
||||||
|
--encryption-key-file encryption.key
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Using environment variable
|
||||||
|
export DBBACKUP_ENCRYPTION_KEY=$(cat encryption.key)
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup backup cluster --encrypt
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Using passphrase (auto-derives key with PBKDF2)
|
||||||
|
echo "my-secure-passphrase" > passphrase.txt
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup backup single mydb --encrypt --encryption-key-file passphrase.txt
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Encryption Features:**
|
||||||
|
- Algorithm: AES-256-GCM (authenticated encryption)
|
||||||
|
- Key derivation: PBKDF2-SHA256 (600,000 iterations)
|
||||||
|
- Streaming encryption (memory-efficient for large backups)
|
||||||
|
- Automatic decryption on restore (detects encrypted backups)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Restore encrypted backup:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup restore single myapp_db_20251126.sql.gz \
|
||||||
|
--encryption-key-file encryption.key \
|
||||||
|
--target myapp_db \
|
||||||
|
--confirm
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Encryption is automatically detected - no need to specify `--encrypted` flag on restore.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 📦 Incremental Backups (v3.0)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Create space-efficient incremental backups (PostgreSQL & MySQL):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Full backup (base)
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup backup single myapp_db --backup-type full
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Incremental backup (only changed files since base)
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup backup single myapp_db \
|
||||||
|
--backup-type incremental \
|
||||||
|
--base-backup /backups/myapp_db_20251126.tar.gz
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Incremental Options:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `--backup-type STRING` - Backup type: full or incremental (default: full)
|
||||||
|
- `--base-backup STRING` - Path to base backup (required for incremental)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Examples:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# PostgreSQL incremental backup
|
||||||
|
sudo -u postgres ./dbbackup backup single production_db \
|
||||||
|
--backup-type full
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Wait for database changes...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
sudo -u postgres ./dbbackup backup single production_db \
|
||||||
|
--backup-type incremental \
|
||||||
|
--base-backup /var/lib/pgsql/db_backups/production_db_20251126_100000.tar.gz
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# MySQL incremental backup
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup backup single wordpress \
|
||||||
|
--db-type mysql \
|
||||||
|
--backup-type incremental \
|
||||||
|
--base-backup /root/db_backups/wordpress_20251126.tar.gz
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Combined: Encrypted + Incremental
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup backup single myapp_db \
|
||||||
|
--backup-type incremental \
|
||||||
|
--base-backup myapp_db_base.tar.gz \
|
||||||
|
--encrypt \
|
||||||
|
--encryption-key-file key.txt
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Incremental Features:**
|
||||||
|
- Change detection: mtime-based (PostgreSQL & MySQL)
|
||||||
|
- Archive format: tar.gz (only changed files)
|
||||||
|
- Metadata: Tracks backup chain (base → incremental)
|
||||||
|
- Restore: Automatically applies base + incremental
|
||||||
|
- Space savings: 70-95% smaller than full backups (typical)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Restore incremental backup:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
./dbbackup restore incremental \
|
||||||
|
--base-backup myapp_db_base.tar.gz \
|
||||||
|
--incremental-backup myapp_db_incr_20251126.tar.gz \
|
||||||
|
--target /restore/path
|
||||||
|
```
