bench backup

Usage

bench backup [OPTIONS]

Description

Backup sites specified. Executing the vanilla command will create a database dump, compress it and save the data under the default backup location ./sites/{site}/private/backups.

In case a current site is set, simply running bench backup command will backup that site.

Options

--backup-path Set path for saving all the files in this operation
--backup-path-db Set path for saving database file
--backup-path-conf Set path for saving config file
--backup-path-files Set path for saving public file
--backup-path-private-files Set path for saving private file
--exclude, -e Specify the DocTypes to not backup seperated by commas
--only, --include, -i Specify the DocTypes to backup seperated by commas

Flags

--ignore-backup-conf Ignore excludes/includes set in config
--with-files Take backup with private and public files
--compress Compress private and public files
--verbose Add verbosity

Examples

Backing up with the site's private and public files.
```
bench --site {site} backup --with-files
```
Compress the public and private files (if required). This saves the file under a tgz format instead of the default tar format.
```
bench --site {site} backup --with-files --compress
```

Change the path where the files backed up will be saved.

bench --site {site} backup --backup-path {backup_path}

Change the path for a specific backup file. For each unspecified option, the respective file will be saved in the default location.

bench --site {site} backup --with-files
--backup-path-conf {conf_path}
--backup-path-db {db_path}
--backup-path-files {files_path}
--backup-path-private-files {private_path}

Add verbosity for the various stages managed internally via the Bench CLI.
```
bench --site {site} backup --verbose
```

Backup only certain doctypes on the site.

bench --site {site} backup --only 'ToDo,Note,Task,Project,Sales Invoice'

Backup all tables except certain doctypes.

bench --site {site} backup --exclude 'Error Log,Access Log,Activity Log,Version'

Backup complete site ignoring the frappe.conf.backup.* values if specified.
```
bench --site {site} backup --ignore-backup-conf
```
