Backing up Docker container volumes Kommet platform

README.md

Backing up Docker container volumes

This script creates a *.tar archive for each volume mounted to a specific Docker container.

In order to quickly back up all volumes of your container:

  • Install jq on your system
  • Run ./backup-volumes-container.sh <container-name>

As a result, a directory will be created at in your current working folder with the name backup-<container name>-<current date>. In that newly created directory there will be one tar archive for each volume mounted to the specified container. The name of the archive will be <volume-name>.tar

Kommet platform

This code is derived from work done on the Kommet platform. Visit https://kommet.io for details.
