| Back-up and restore an app |
We'll use the example of a coop-cloud/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 app blog_example_com_app.tar.gz
and/or the database:
abra app wordpress_blog_example_com restore db blog_example_com_db.sql.gz
(there isn't yet a command to restore files and database data at the same time)
