Changelog

Version 2.0

  • Huge code cleanup and refactoring (Closes: #2)

Added features

  • Compressing and/or encrypting dumps on the fly (Closes: #1)
  • The day of the week for the weekly backups is now configurable (1 for Monday, 0 disable weekly backups) (Closes: #1, #9)
  • The day of the month for the monthly backups is now configurable (instead of 1 by default, 0 disable the monthly backups) (Closes: #1, #8)
  • Support for any compression tool that supports to read data to be compressed from stdin and outputs it to stdout (Closes: #3, #6)
  • Daily, weekly and monthly dumps keeped are now configurable (by default, 14 daily, 5 weekly and 6 monthly backups)
  • Switch encryption from OpenSSL to GnuPG, see details (Closes: #10)

Removed features

  • It's no longer possible to dump all databases in a single file
  • Copying the lastest dump in the latest/ directory is no longer supported
  • Specifying the databases names to dump during the montly backup is no longer supported
  • It is no longer supported to send backup files by email (MAILCONTENT=files). It was anyway probably not a good idea to send backup files by email (for various reasons: file size, privacy, data leaks, etc.) but I guess that it could easily be implemented in a POSTBACKUP script if needed.
