We'll use the example of a [`coop-cloud/wordpress`][wordpress] app deployed at
|
|
|
|
|
`blog.example.com`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Backing up
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
abra app wordpress_blog_example_com backup --all
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will download backups of the Wordpress files (plugins, themes, and uploads)
|
|
|
|
|
and database (posts, settings and users) to the default backup directory,
|
|
|
|
|
`~/.abra/backups`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also back up just the files:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
abra app wordpress_blog_example_com backup app
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or just the database:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
abra app wordpress_blog_example_com backup db
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|

!!! warning
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Not all types of apps know how to do backups yet -- if you see a message
|
|
|
|
|
like `ERROR: 'nextcloud' doesn't know how to do app backups`, then extra
|
|
|
|
|
code is needed in that app's `abra.sh` -- you might be able to add this
|
|
|
|
|
yourself based on [`coop-cloud/wordpress` `abra.sh`][wordpress_abra.sh],
|
|
|
|
|
otherwise please open a new issue (in this case for
|
|
|
|
|
[`coop-cloud/nextcloud`][nextcloud]).

## Restore
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can restore data into a running application. This is useful to restore an
|
|
|
|
|
app to a previous state, to migrate an app from one Co-op Cloud server to
|
|
|
|
|
another, or to help move an app to Co-op Cloud initially.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using the same example app above, you can restore files:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
abra app wordpress_blog_example_com restore blog_example_com_app.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and/or the database:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
abra app wordpress_blog_example_com restore blog_example_com_db.sql.gz
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(there isn't yet a command to restore files and database data at the same time)
