# Database Backup Container
A lightweight Alpine-based Docker container for backing up MariaDB and PostgreSQL databases using Restic.
A lightweight Alpine-based Docker container for backing up MariaDB and PostgreSQL databases with support for both local snapshots and Restic backups.
## Overview
This container automatically detects the database type (MariaDB or PostgreSQL) in a target container and creates backups using Restic. It supports backing up databases from other Docker containers by executing dump commands inside them.
This container automatically detects the database type (MariaDB or PostgreSQL) in a target container and creates backups using either local file storage with compression or Restic repositories. It supports backing up databases from other Docker containers by executing dump commands inside them.
## Features
- **Multi-database support**: Automatically detects and backs up MariaDB or PostgreSQL databases
- **Dual backup methods**: Choose between local compressed files or Restic repositories
- **Local snapshots**: Create compressed (zstd) local backup files with timestamps
- **Restic integration**: Uses Restic for efficient, encrypted, and deduplicated backups
- **Docker-in-Docker**: Can access and backup databases from other containers
- **Notification support**: Optional webhook notifications when backups complete
- **Lightweight**: Based on Alpine Linux for minimal footprint
## Prerequisites
- Docker with socket access (`/var/run/docker.sock`)
- Target container with either MariaDB or PostgreSQL client tools
- Restic repository (local, S3, B2, etc.)
- For Restic backups: Restic repository (local, S3, B2, etc.)
- For local backups: Mounted volume for backup storage

## Usage
### Basic Usage
### Backup Methods
The container supports two backup methods:
1. **`restic`** - Backup to Restic repositories (cloud storage, remote servers)
2. **`local`** - Create compressed local backup files

## Backup File Naming
### Restic Backups
Backups are stored with the following naming convention:
- MariaDB: `mariadb_[CONTAINER]_[DB_NAME].sql`
- PostgreSQL: `pgsql_[CONTAINER]_[DB_NAME].sql`
### Local Backups
Local backup files include timestamps and are compressed:
- MariaDB: `YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_mariadb_[CONTAINER]_[DB_NAME].sql.zst`
- PostgreSQL: `YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_pgsql_[CONTAINER]_[DB_NAME].sql.zst`
Local backups use zstd compression for efficient storage and include atomic file operations (temporary files are renamed when complete).
## MariaDB Backup Features
The container includes comprehensive MariaDB backup options:
- **`--add-drop-trigger`** - Add DROP TRIGGER statements
- **`--add-drop-table`** - Add DROP TABLE statements
- **`--add-drop-database`** - Add DROP DATABASE statements
- **`--hex-blob`** - Use hexadecimal notation for binary data
- **`--compress`** - Compress data in backup
- **`--events`** - Include events in backup
- **`--routines`** - Include stored procedures and functions
- **`--single-transaction`** - Consistent backup for InnoDB tables
- **`--triggers`** - Include triggers in backup
## Notification Support
Both backup methods support optional webhook notifications:
```bash
# Set NOTIFY_URL to receive notifications when backups complete
-e NOTIFY_URL=https://hc-ping.com/your-healthcheck-uuid
```
The container will make a GET request to the URL after successful backup completion.
## Supported Restic Repositories

- Ensure the target directory is mounted as a volume
- Check directory permissions
5. **"Unknown backup method"**
- Ensure you specify either `local` or `restic` as the command argument
### Debug Mode
To debug issues, you can run the container interactively:
