Looking for Magento 1.x support? Head over to magedbm.
magedbm2 is a database backup manager for Magento 2.
It was written with developers in mind and provides commands for:
- Creating sanitised (or unsanitised) Magento 2 production database backups and uploading them to Amazon S3
- Downloading and importing existing backups to development or staging environments
- Exporting and importing anonymised sensitive data tables
magedbm2 requires PHP 7.0+ with permission to run the exec
and passthru
functions to create and import database backups.
Download the Phar file from the latest Github release. Then run:
mv magedbm2.phar /usr/local/bin/magedbm2
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/magedbm2
magedbm2 uses Amazon S3 to store generated files. To use it you will need to create two buckets on S3 (one for database backups and another for data exports) and a user that has read and write access to the buckets. Note down your:
- AWS Access Key ID
- AWS Secret Access Key
- S3 region where your bucket is hosted
- The bucket names
These details will need to be specified with option flags to most magedbm2
commands.
While the ability to specify the credentials as command line options is useful in automated scenarios, for personal everyday usage magedbm2 can be configured to remember your credentials by running:
magedbm2 configure [--access-key="..."] [--secret-key="..."] [--region="..."] [--bucket="..."] [--data-bucket="..."][-n]
By default, the configure command will interactively prompt you for each of the configuration details. Alternatively, you can run it in a non-interactive mode with the -n
option and specify the credentials you want to save by using the --access-key
, --secret-key
, --region
, --bucket
or --data-bucket
options.
The configuration is saved in a YAML file, usually located in ~/.magedbm2/config.yml
.
It's not always possible to run magedbm2
on the same server that a Magento installation is present, for example you might want to run a cron for magedbm2
on your database server so that you don't clog the pipe to the application server with unnecessary backup traffic.
magedbm2
normally discovers the database credentials by looking for the app/etc/env.php
configuration file in a Magento project. If this is not found then magedbm2
will fallback to the following options:
--db-host
--db-port
--db-user
--db-pass
Often in your projects you'll have a list of tables that you want to strip as a group. You may be familiar with this concept in magerun when passing --strip=@development
to the db:dump
command. Magedbm ships with a default set of strip table groups but you can add your by adding a new key under table-groups
in your configuration, e.g.
table-groups:
- id: superpay
description: Sensitive Super Pay tables
tables: superpay_* super_logs superpay
You can then use that table group in your put
command, magedbm2 put --strip=@superpay myproject
.
As well as stripping certain tables in your projects, you might also have project-specific columns containing sensitive data that you do not want exported. To do this you need to define which formatter to apply to the column.
Depending on the type of entity that you want to anonymise you'll either need to use the tables
or the eav
key in the configuration. Assuming that we've added a new table called super_pay
with two columns that need anonymisation and we've added a new attribute to customers.
anonymizer:
tables:
- name: super_pay
columns:
customer_card_number: Faker\Provider\Payment::creditCardNumber
receipt_email: Faker\Provider\Internet::email
eav:
- entity: customer
attributes:
super_pay_tracking_id: Meanbee\Magedbm2\Anonymizer\Formatter\Rot13 # lol.
You have access to the Faker library.
The format of the formatter string is either ${className}
if the class implements Meanbee\Magedbm2\Anonymizer\FormatterInterface
or ${className}::${method}
if you want to call a method directly.
magedbm2 put [--strip="..."] [--clean=NUM|--no-clean] <project>
The put
command will create a database backup from a Magento 2 installation at the current working directory (or the directory specified with --root-dir
) and upload it to S3.
By default, the command uses n98-magerun2 for database operations and creates backups with all customer data stripped out (the @development
strip setting to the n98-magerun2 db:dump
command). However, you can customise what data gets stripped, if any, using the --strip
option.
The put
command also automatically cleans up old database backups once a new one has been uploaded, keeping only the 5 most recent backup files. You can customise the number of retained backups with the --clean
option, or disable it completely with --no-clean
.
magedbm2 ls [<project>]
The ls
command will show the backup files available for import in S3. If called without a project name, it will show the available projects instead.
magedbm2 get [--download-only] [--force] get <project> [<file>]
Use the get
command to download a backup file from S3 and import it to a Magento 2 installation at the current working directory (or the directory specified with --root-dir
).
By default, the get
command will choose the latest backup file available for the given project. You can import specific backup files by providing the name of the file after the project name.
To download the backup file without importing it, use the --download-only
option. The file will be downloaded to the current working directory.
magedbm2 rm <project> <file>
The rm
command allows you to delete specific backup files from S3.
magedbm2 export <project>
The export
command allows you generate an anonymised export of your database, based on your anonymisation rules.
magedbm2 import [--no-progress] [--download-only] <project> [<file>]
The import
command allows you to import an anonymised export of your database.
