dockup-postgres

Docker Automated buil Docker Stars Docker Pulls

This is based on dockup-mongo but for postgres. Docker image to backup/restore your PostgreSQL DB to AWS S3. Builds upon dockup.

Configuration

This Docker image uses pg_dump to create a PostgreSQL database dump and backup or restore it with dockup. Please see the dockup repository for extended information on configuration options, for instance on how to configure encryption with GnuPG.

The following PostgreSQL specific configuration options have been added:

  • POSTGRES_HOST - the host/ip of your postgres database (defaults to db)
  • POSTGRES_PORT - the port number of your postgres database (defaults to 5432)
  • POSTGRES_USER - the username of your postgres database. (defaults to postgres)
  • POSTGRES_PASS - the password of your postgres database.
  • POSTGRES_DB - the database name to dump. (defaults to postgres)
  • POSTGRES_DUMP_EXTRA_OPTS - the extra options to pass to pg_dump command

Usually you will link your PostgreSQL container to the dockup container.

The following dockup environment variables should not be overriden if using the specialised PostgreSQL (dockup-postgres) image:

  • BEFORE_BACKUP_CMD
  • AFTER_BACKUP_CMD
  • AFTER_RESTORE_CMD
  • PATHS_TO_BACKUP

This is what a postgres and backup service might look like in docker-compose.yaml. Note the dockup-postgres specific variables in addition to others needed by dockup
