dbbackup is a simple backup manager for postgresql that allows easy upload to Amazon web services S3.

Step by step

1. clone this repo:
$ cd ~
$ git clone git://github.com/lucasdavila/dbbackup.git
$ cd dbbackup

2. Install pip and requirements:
$ sudo apt-get install python-dev build-essential python-pip
$ sudo sudo pip install --upgrade pip
$ sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

3. create your schedules in /schedules/your_schedule_file_name:

command /usr/bin/pg_dump --no-password --host localhost --port 5432 --username "postgres" --format custom --blobs --verbose
--file "%(file)s" data-base-name

# the options below also can be passed via command line when the script backup.py is called (see step 5).  

storage_path /home/lucasdavila/backups/database/%(year)s/%(month)s

aws_s3_credential aws_s3_credential
aws_s3_bucket_name your-bucket-name
aws_s3_storage_key your/remote/path/to/upload/%(year)s/%(month)s

4. define your aws credentials in /schedules/aws_s3_credential:

aws_s3_access_key your-access-key
aws_s3_secret_key your-secret-key

Remember: Your keys are private, don't add these files into your version control system.

5. add tasks to crontab, eg:
$ crontab -e

if your server require a password, you can define the postgres user password
PGPASSWORD=123

every day call logrotate to rotates dbbackup logs

additionally you can send options in command line with this syntax -Ooption_name=option_value, eg: -Oaws_s3_bucket_name=bucket_name

yep :) now your backup service is working, you can also perform the backup manually running in terminal:
