# postgres-backup-local
Backup PostgresSQL to local filesystem with periodic backups and rotate backups.
Based on [schickling/postgres-backup-s3](https://hub.docker.com/r/schickling/postgres-backup-s3/).
## Usage
Docker:
```sh
$ docker run -e BACKUP_DIR=/backups -e POSTGRES_DATABASE=dbname -e POSTGRES_USER=user -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password -e POSTGRES_HOST=localhost schickling/postgres-backup-local
```
Docker Compose:
```yaml
postgres:
image: postgres
environment:
POSTGRES_DB: dbname
POSTGRES_USER: user
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password
pgbackups:
image: prodrigestivill/postgres-backup-local
links:
- postgres
volumes:
- /var/opt/pgbackups:/backups
environment:
SCHEDULE: '@daily'
BACKUP_DIR: /backups
BACKUP_KEEP_DAYS: 7
BACKUP_KEEP_WEEKS: 4
BACKUP_KEEP_MONTHS: 6
POSTGRES_DB: dbname
POSTGRES_USER: user
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password
POSTGRES_EXTRA_OPTS: '-Z9 --schema=public --blobs'
```
### Automatic Periodic Backups
You can additionally set the `SCHEDULE` environment variable like `-e SCHEDULE="@daily"` to run the backup automatically.
More information about the scheduling can be found [here](http://godoc.org/github.com/robfig/cron#hdr-Predefined_schedules).
Folders daily, weekly and monthly are created and populated using hard links to save disk space.
