Backup Docker volumes locally or to any S3 compatible storage.
|
||||
|
||||
The [offen/docker-volume-backup](https://hub.docker.com/r/offen/docker-volume-backup) Docker image can be used as a lightweight (below 15MB) sidecar container to an existing Docker setup. It handles __recurring or one-off backups of Docker volumes__ to a __local directory__ or __any S3 compatible storage__ (or both), and __rotates away old backups__ if configured. It also supports __encrypting your backups using GPG__.

## Using with Docker Swarm
|
||||
## Configuration reference
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Docker Swarm will restart stopped containers automatically, even when manually stopped. If you plan to have your containers / services stopped during backup, this means you need to apply the `on-failure` restart policy to your service's definitions. A restart policy of `always` is not compatible with this tool.
|
||||
Backup targets, schedule and retention are configured in environment variables.
|
||||
You can populate below template according to your requirements and use it as your `env_file`:

||||

||||

|

|
||||
## How to
|
||||
|
||||
### Stopping containers during backup
|
||||
|
||||
In many cases, it will be desirable to stop the services that are consuming the volume you want to backup in order to ensure data integrity.
|
||||
This image can automatically stop and restart containers and services (in case you are running Docker in Swarm mode).
|
||||
By default, any container that is labeled `docker-volume-backup.stop-during-backup=true` will be stopped before the backup is being taken and restarted once it has finished.
|
||||
|
||||
In case you need more fine grained control about which containers should be stopped (e.g. when backing up multiple volumes on different schedules), you can set the `BACKUP_STOP_CONTAINER_LABEL` environment variable and then use the same value for labeling:
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
version: '3'
|
||||
|
||||
services:
|
||||
app:
|
||||
# definition for app ...
|
||||
labels:
|
||||
- docker-volume-backup.stop-during-backup=service1
|
||||
|
||||
backup:
|
||||
image: offen/docker-volume-backup:latest
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
BACKUP_STOP_CONTAINER_LABEL: service1
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- data:/backup/my-app-backup:ro
|
||||
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro
|
||||
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
data:
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Automatically pruning old backups
|
||||
|
||||
When `BACKUP_RETENTION_DAYS` is configured, the image will check if there are any backups in the remote bucket or local archive that are older than the given retention value and rotate these backups away.
|
||||
|
||||
Be aware that this mechanism looks at __all files in the target bucket or archive__, which means that other files that are older than the given deadline are deleted as well. In case you need to use a target that cannot be used exclusively for your backups, you can configure `BACKUP_PRUNING_PREFIX` to limit which files are considered eligible for deletion:
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
version: '3'
|
||||
|
||||
services:
|
||||
# ... define other services using the `data` volume here
|
||||
backup:
|
||||
image: offen/docker-volume-backup:latest
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
BACKUP_FILENAME: backup-%Y-%m-%dT%H-%M-%S.tar.gz
|
||||
BACKUP_PRUNING_PREFIX: backup-
|
||||
BACKUP_RETENTION_DAYS: 7
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ${HOME}/backups:/archive
|
||||
- data:/backup/my-app-backup:ro
|
||||
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro
|
||||
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
data:
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Encrypting your backup using GPG
|
||||
|
||||
The image supports encrypting backups using GPG out of the box.
|
||||
In case a `GPG_PASSPHRASE` environment variable is set, the backup will be encrypted using the given key and saved as a `.gpg` file instead.
|
||||
|
||||
Assuming you have `gpg` installed, you can decrypt such a backup using (your OS will prompt for the passphrase before decryption can happen):
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
gpg -o backup.tar.gz -d backup.tar.gz.gpg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Restoring a volume from a backup
|
||||
|
||||
In case you need to restore a volume from a backup, the most straight forward procedure to do so would be:
|
||||
|
||||
- Stop the container(s) that are using the volume
|
||||
- Untar the backup you want to restore
|
||||
```console
|
||||
tar -C /tmp -xvf backup.tar.gz
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Using a temporary one-off container, mount the volume (the example assumes it's named `data`) and copy over the backup. Make sure you copy the correct path level (this depends on how you mount your volume into the backup container), you might need to strip some leading elements
|
||||
```console
|
||||
docker run -d --name backup_restore -v data:/backup_restore alpine
|
||||
docker cp /tmp/backup/data-backup backup_restore:/backup_restore
|
||||
docker stop backup_restore
|
||||
docker rm backup_restore
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Restart the container(s) that are using the volume
|
||||
|
||||
Depending on your setup and the application(s) you are running, this might involve other steps to be taken still.
|
||||
|
||||
### Using with Docker Swarm
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Docker Swarm will restart stopped containers automatically, even when manually stopped.
|
||||
If you plan to have your containers / services stopped during backup, this means you need to apply the `on-failure` restart policy to your service's definitions.
|
||||
A restart policy of `always` is not compatible with this tool.

## Differences to `futurice/docker-volume-backup`
|
||||
|
||||
This image is heavily inspired by the `futurice/docker-volume-backup`. We decided to publish this image as a simpler and more lightweight alternative because of the following requirements:
|
||||
|
||||
- The original image is based on `ubuntu` and additional tools, making it very heavy. This version is roughly 1/25 in compressed size (it's ~12MB).
|
||||
- The original image uses a shell script, when this is written in Go, which makes it easier to extend and maintain (more verbose also).
|
||||
- The original image proposed to handle backup rotation through AWS S3 lifecycle policies. This image adds the option to rotate away old backups through the same command so this functionality can also be offered for non-AWS storage backends like MinIO. Local copies of backups can also be pruned once they reach a certain age.

|

- `arm64` and `arm/v7` architectures are supported.
|
||||
- Docker in Swarm mode is supported.
