vakap is a site manager, originally intended to automate backups of sites hosted by OMBU. However, it's architecture allows any operation on sites, such as executing maintenance scripts, rotating logs etc.
This is currently a work in progress so if you use it, do so at your own risk. If you find it useful, I'd love to hear your feedback.
- Allows running a command on a list of sites, such as backing them up.
- Stores backups in Amazon S3.
- Encrypts files client-side with
gnupgbefore sending to S3.
list: Lists managed sitesbackup: Backs-up sitesstatus: Report on a site, such as when it was last backed-up
There's a milestone in the bugtracker for Planned & Proposed Components
All commands require the following arguments:
host_string: The fabric host string where the database lives.
Backup a MySQL database. Arguments:
db_name: The database name.db_user: The database user name. This user must have sufficient privilege in the host to runmysqldumpon this database without requiring a password.
Same options as MysqlComponent.
Tar & gzip a directory (follows symlinks). Arguments:
db_name: The database name
Same options as TgzComponent.
- Client: Python and Fabric
- Hosts:
s3cmd,gnupgwith a trusted public key for encryption
- Provide a settings file (vakap will look for settings.json). See
settings.sample.jsonfor an exmaple . - Site hosts must have s3cmd installed and configured.
- Site hosts must have the gpg public key in their keyring
To build the egg:
python setup.py sdist
