Concrete CMS backup shell libraries

This is simple shell script to back up your Concrete CMS 7.x & Concrete CMS Version 8 site. Since you're using GitHub, I assume you know what you're doing. This is the script that runs on your server.

MIT LICENSE and NO GUARANTEE

This script is licensed under The MIT License. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

concretecms-backup.sh shell

Set-up

You need to have the server that allows to run the shell script.

  1. Add your server config in concretecms-backup.conf
  2. If you don't uncomment MYSQL_PASSWORD option, you will have to enter MySQL Password every time you run this script.
  3. Upload the concretecms-backup.sh concretecms-backup.confto your server
  4. Change the file permission chmod 700 concretecms-backup.sh Or whatever the permission you need to execute the file. But make sure to minimize the permission.
  5. Run the sh file from ssh or set-up CRON job.

It's is highly advised that you know what you're doing with this script. You MUST have certain amount of knowledge of what shell script is.

CAUTION: Check your Concrete CMS folder.

This script first save the SQL dump file onto Concrete CMS directory. If the script fails, it may leave the SQL file under the server. MAKE SURE to check the server occasionally.
