A cookbook for adding offsite backups to your webserver. Installs all the gems necessary.
Requires a bit of pre-configuration before running the cookbook.
Assumes database and directory backup, with an s3sync to an amazon s3 bucket.
- You need to create the bucket on s3. (currently set to us-east-1 region)
- Copy amazon access keys to ~/.aws/secret_key and ~/.aws/access_key
- Database passwords
- Directories to sync.
You should be familiar with the backup gem
Note: This cookbook is in early stages so improvements and contributions are encouraged!
I recommend knife github cookbooks for installing this cookbook into your chef repository.
