- Added WorkDir to Config for custom temp directory
- TUI Settings: new 'Work Directory' option to set alternative temp location
- Restore Preview: press 'w' to toggle work directory (uses backup dir as default)
- Diagnose View: now uses configured WorkDir for cluster extraction
- Config persistence: WorkDir saved to .dbbackup.conf
This fixes diagnosis/restore failures when /tmp is too small for large archives.
Use cases: servers with limited /tmp, 70GB+ archives needing 280GB+ extraction space.
Features:
- restore diagnose command for backup file analysis
- Deep COPY block verification for truncated dump detection
- PGDMP signature and gzip integrity validation
- Detailed error reports with --save-debug-log flag
- Ring buffer stderr capture (prevents OOM on 2M+ errors)
- Error classification with actionable recommendations
TUI Enhancements:
- Automatic dump validity safety check before restore
- Press 'd' in archive browser to diagnose backups
- Press 'd' in restore preview for debug log toggle
- Debug logs saved to /tmp on failure when enabled
Documentation:
- Updated README with diagnose command and examples
- Updated CHANGELOG with full feature list
- Updated restore preview screenshots
- Fix format detection to read database_type from .meta.json metadata file
- Add ensureMySQLDatabaseExists() for MySQL/MariaDB database creation
- Route database creation to correct implementation based on db type
- Add TUI auto-forward in auto-confirm mode (no input required for debugging)
- All TUI components now exit automatically when --auto-confirm is set
- Fix status view to skip loading in auto-confirm mode
- Add .golangci.yml with minimal linters (govet, ineffassign)
- Run gofmt -s and goimports on all files to fix formatting
- Disable fieldalignment and copylocks checks in govet
- Created internal/cleanup package for orphaned process management
- KillOrphanedProcesses(): Finds and kills pg_dump, pg_restore, gzip, pigz
- killProcessGroup(): Kills entire process groups (handles pipelines)
- Pass parent context through all TUI operations (backup/restore inherit cancellation)
- Menu cancel now kills all child processes before exit
- Fixed context chain: menu.ctx → backup/restore operations
- No more zombie processes when user quits TUI mid-operation
Context chain:
- signal.NotifyContext in main.go → menu.ctx
- menu.ctx → backup_exec.ctx, restore_exec.ctx
- Child contexts inherit cancellation via context.WithTimeout(parentCtx)
- All exec.CommandContext use proper parent context
Prevents: Orphaned pg_dump/pg_restore eating CPU/disk after TUI quit
- Auto-detects existing user databases before cluster restore
- Shows count and list (first 5) in preview screen
- Toggle option 'c' to enable cluster cleanup
- Drops all user databases before restore when enabled
- Works for PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB
- Safety warning with database count
- Implements practical disaster recovery workflow
- Cluster restores restore multiple databases, not a single target
- Database existence check was failing with exit status 2
- Now shows "Will restore all databases from cluster backup" instead
- Removes confusing warning for cluster restore operations
