Laravel Driver for the Database Backup Manager

This package pulls in the framework agnostic Backup Manager and provides seamless integration with Laravel.

Mitchell has put together a video tour of Laravel integration, to give you an idea what is possible with this package.

Note: This package is for Laravel integration only. For information about the base package please see the base package repository.

Table of Contents

Stability Notice

It's stable enough, you'll need to understand filesystem permissions.

This package is actively being developed and we would like to get feedback to improve it. Please feel free to submit feedback.

Requirements

  • PHP 5.5
  • Laravel
  • MySQL support requires mysqldump and mysql command-line binaries
  • PostgreSQL support requires pg_dump and psql command-line binaries
  • Gzip support requires gzip and gunzip command-line binaries

Installation

Composer

Run the following to include this via Composer

composer require backup-manager/laravel

Then, you'll need to select the appropriate packages for the adapters that you want to use.

# to support s3
composer require league/flysystem-aws-s3-v2

Laravel 4 Configuration

To install into a Laravel 4 project, first do the composer install then add the following class to your config/app.php service providers list.

BackupManager\Laravel\Laravel4ServiceProvider::class,

Copy the vendor/backup-manager/laravel/config/backup-manager.php file to app/config/backup-manager.php and configure it to suit your needs.

Laravel 5 Configuration

To install into a Laravel project, first do the composer install then add the following class to your config/app.php service providers list.

BackupManager\Laravel\Laravel5ServiceProvider::class,

Publish the storage configuration file.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="BackupManager\Laravel\Laravel5BackupManagerServiceProvider"

The Backup Manager will make use of Laravel's database configuration. But, it won't know about any connections that might be tied to other environments, so it can be best to just list multiple connections in the config/database.php file.

IoC Resolution

BackupManager\Manager can be automatically resolved through constructor injection thanks to Laravel's IoC container.

use BackupManager\Manager;

public function __construct(Manager $manager) {
    $this->manager = $manager;
}

It can also be resolved manually from the container.

$manager = App::make(\BackupManager\Manager::class);

Artisan Commands

There are three commands available db:backup, db:restore and db:list.

All will prompt you with simple questions to successfully execute the command.

Contribution Guidelines

We recommend using the vagrant configuration supplied with this package for development and contribution. Simply install VirtualBox, Vagrant, and Ansible then run vagrant up in the root folder. A virtualmachine specifically designed for development of the package will be built and launched for you.

When contributing please consider the following guidelines:

  • please conform to the code style of the project, it's essentially PSR-2 with a few differences.
    1. The NOT operator when next to parenthesis should be surrounded by a single space. if ( ! is_null(...)) {.
    2. Interfaces should NOT be suffixed with Interface, Traits should NOT be suffixed with Trait.
  • All methods and classes must contain docblocks.
  • Ensure that you submit tests that have minimal 100% coverage.
  • When planning a pull-request to add new functionality, it may be wise to submit a proposal to ensure compatibility with the project's goals.
