Release v0.4.3

• fix: S3 cleanup was not working
• fix: running mdbackup cleanup with cloud providers in secret backends did not load them

Release v0.4.2

Fixes #64 once for all

Release v0.4.1

• fix: mysql backup using docker fails if user is set (#64)
• docs: add missing cpus setting in zstd (#65)
• docs: change cypher to encrypt key in config (#66)

Release v0.4.0

New Features

• Added support for .yaml/.yml config files.
• Configuration -c option now expects a folder with a config file and tasks.
• File secrets backend will default to ${config_folder}/secrets as basePath instead of fail.
• Implemented actions and tasks.
• Backups will have a backup manifest with information about what has been run and what files/folders have been generated from each task - useful for a future restoring functionality.
• Added config validations using json schema.
• When uploading to cloud storage, compress and/or encrypt steps are done using actions implementation (avoiding duplicated code).
• Implemented unactions system for the future restore mode
• Uploading backups will now keep some folder structure and will only archive folders that were result of a task. This will simplify restore operations in any sense :)
• Added tests :)

Cool bits

• Tool can be found in PyPi: go and install it using pip install mdbackup 😄
• Deployed documentation to GitHub Pages: mdbackup.majorcadevs.com

Fixes

• Improvements and bug fixes on S3 and B2 upload, including random KeyError exceptions.
• Fixed issues when uploading files to S3/B2 that will contain duplicated prefix keys or rogue / characters.
• Fixed crash when using python 3.6 (we want to make it fully compatible with that version).

Breaking changes

• Configuration switch -c expects folder not a config file.
• Backup logic is now done using actions and tasks which are defined using yaml files inside ${config_folder}/tasks.
• compression, encrypt and storages are now inside a cloud parent element.
• storages is called now providers.
• ftp and ftps providers now have port setting.
• sftp changed the setting from disableHostKeys to enableHostKeys.
• Rework commands: they are now friendlier and accept different arguments depending on the command (check out documentation for more)

Release v0.4.0-beta.4

Cool new features for this 0.4.0 version, which if everything is working, will soon go out :D

• Rework commands: they are now friendlier and accept different arguments depending on the command (check out documentation for more)
• Added support for referencing variables in env sections and environment variables (go to Tasks documentation to see more)
• Tasks can receive settings for when the result is being uploaded to the cloud. At the moment, the only option available is to ignore the file/folder so it won't upload (go to the Tasks documentation too)
• Start publishing the tool in PyPi: go and install it using pip install mdbackup 😄

And also some fixes:

• Fixed issues when uploading files to S3/B2 that will contain duplicated prefix keys or rogue / characters
• Fixed crash when using python 3.6 (we want to make it fully compatible with that version)
• Fixed failure when running a command using string as parameter

• Fix S3 without region raises KeyError exception
• xattr package is only required on non-Linux OSes
• Uploading backups will now keep some folder structure and will only archive folders that were result of a task. This will simplify restore operations in any sense :)
