About GoThink

GoThink is a RethinkDB backup tool, which allows you to back up all or preselected data and restore them.

This application was built with a focus on speed, friendliness and functionality.

In the future we want to add support for importing backups created with python driver, server migration (copy command) and more compression methods to choose from.

Installation

• Method 1 - build from source
  • Download the latest Golang version
  • Run go get github.com/BOOMfinity-Developers/GoThink/cmd/gothink command.

The binary will be installed automatically, if Go bin directory is in the PATH. If it is not, add export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/go/bin to $HOME/.bashrc (for bash). If you are on Windows, well... ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

• Method 2 - download binary from release page
  • Download binary from "releases" page. Choose from multiple OSs and archs.

For now, precompiled binaries are available for Windows (amd64) and Linux (amd64).

Usage

Run gothink -h for more information about available commands. It's pretty straightforward.
