@trapcode/mongodb-backup v1.0.4

mongo-backup

Note this package depends on MongoDb Database tools. Make sure you have it installed in your machine.

Configure using environment variables

First create a .env file of this format

# Required
DB_SERVER=

# Optional
DB_USER=
DB_NAME=
DB_PASSWORD=

Note: DB_USER, DB_NAME and DB_PASSWORD are optional. This is because they can be present in the DB_SERVER string.

If your DB_SERVER string has placeholders for user, password or database the env variables will be used to replace them. For example

<user> = DB_USER
<password> = DB_PASSWORD (Encoded)
<database> = DB_NAME

with the above example given

DB_PASSWORD=hello@world
DB_NAME=myapp
DB_SERVER="mongodb+srv://admin:<password>@server3.mongodb.net/<database>?retryWrites=true&w=majority"

# server string will be converted to
# mongodb+srv://admin:hello%40world@server3.mongodb.net/myapp?retryWrites=true&w=majority"
