# Rancher Backup
## Info:
This template deploy one container that manage backup aspect in your Rancher environment.
For the moment, this template permit to perform the following actions:
- Dump automatically all databases supported before start the remote backup:
- PostgreSQL
- MySQL
- MariaDB
- MongoDB
- Elasticsearch
- Dump automatically all rancher stacks settings (docker-compose.yml and rancher-compose.yml) before start the remote backup
- Perform the remote backup of all `/backup` with duplicity (you can mount your shares storages on `/backup` to backup them)
To manage your backup policy, you can use the following environment variables:
- `CRON_SCHEDULE`: when you should start backup (incremental if full is not needed). For example, to start backup each day set `0 0 0 * * *`
- `BACKEND`: this is the target URL to externalize the backup. For example, to use FTP as external backup set `ftp://login@my-ftp.com` and add environment variable `FTP_PASSWORD`. For Amazon S3, set `s3://host[:port]/bucket_name[/prefix]`. Read the ducplicity man for [all supported backend](http://duplicity.nongnu.org/duplicity.1.html#sect7). There are no default value.
- `TARGET_PATH`: The path were store backup on local and remote. The default value is `/backup`.
- `BK_FULL_FREQ`: The frequency when you should make a full backup. For example, if you should make a full backup each 7 days, set `7D`. The default value is `7D`.
- `BK_KEEP_FULL`: How many full backup you should to keep. For example, to keep 3 full backup set `3`. The default value is `3`.
- `BK_KEEP_FULL_CHAIN`: The number of intermediate incremental backup you should keep with the full backup. For example, if you should keep only the incremental backup after the last full backup set `1`. The default value is set to `1`.
- `VOLUME_SIZE`: The volume size to store the backup (in MB). The default value is `25`.
- `DISABLE_DUMP`: Permit to disable the databases dump before launch the Backup
- `DISABLE_DUMP_RANCHER`: Permit to disable the Rancher settings dump before launch the Backup.
