kellerkind

Kellerkind is a Ruby application that runs several backup actions.

It should be used with its cli but it's also possible to use it with its API.

Install it as gem:

gem install kellerkind

Run from the command line:

kellerkind --help

to the arguments you could specify.

Example

Dumping a Mongo database and compressing the dump

kellerkind --type mongodb --mongo-db appDatabase --mongo-host linus.mongohq.com --mongo-port 10010 --mongo-username myUser --mongo-password myCrypticPassword --compress true --out $HOME/tmp/mongodump

Dumps a database hosted at MongoHQ to $HOME/tmp/mongodump and create a tar file of this dump.

Backing up several log files

kellerkind --type log --files $HOME/rails/my_app/log/production.log $HOME/logs/unicorn.stdout.log --out $HOME/tmp/log_backups --verbose true

Backups and compresses $HOME/rails/my_app/log/production.log and $HOME/logs/unicorn.stdout.log to $HOME/tmp/log_backups, deletes the original files and recreates them as blank files.

Run

rspec spec/

• Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet.
• Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it.
• Fork the project.
• Start a feature/bugfix branch.
• Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution.
• Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
• Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
