Usage Examples

$ phpbu

This requires a valid XML PHPBU configuration file (phpbu.xml or phpbu.xml.dist) in your current working directory. Alternatively, you can specify the path to your configuration file. An important thing to note is that all path inside the configuration should be absolute or relative to the configuration file itself.

$ phpbu --configuration=backup/config.xml

Use the --limit option to execute only a subset of your configured backups.

$ phpbu --limit=myAppDB

A dry run without any actual impact is executed with the --simulate option.

$ phpbu --simulate

To show a guide how to restore your backup use the --restore option.

$ phpbu --restore

Configuration Example

Simple configuration example in XML:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <phpbu xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://schema.phpbu.de/6.0/phpbu.xsd"
         verbose="true">
    <backups>
      <backup name="myAppDB">
        <!-- source -->
        <source type="mysqldump">
          <option name="databases" value="mydbname"/>
          <option name="user" value="user.name"/>
          <option name="password" value="topsecret"/>
        </source>
        <!-- where should the backup be stored -->
        <target dirname="backup/mysql"
                filename="mysqldump-%Y%m%d-%H%i.sql"
                compress="bzip2"/>
      </backup>
    </backups>
