Creating Backup

*/
mongodbBackup.createBackup();


const host = '192.168.1.08';
const port = 27017;
const backupDest = 'myBackup'
/* All params are optional having default values as following:
    host = 127.0.0.1 i.e localhost
    port = 27017
    backupDest = currentDate
*/
mongodbBackup.createBackup(host, port, backupDest);

Restoring Backup

const mongodbBackup = require('mongodb-backup-dump');

/ Backup of your local MongoDB data will be created in ./backup/${currentDate}
/ mongodbBackup.restoreBackup('./myBackup');

const host = '192.168.1.08'; const port = 27017; / Host and port params are optional having default values as following: host = 127.0.0.1 i.e localhost port = 27017 / mongodbBackup.restoreBackup('./myBackup',host, port);

### Schedule Backup

const mongodbBackup = require('mongodb-backup-dump');

/*
  Backup of your local MongoDB data will be created in ./backup/${currentDate}  
*/
mongodbBackup.scheduleBackup('* * 1 * * *');


const cronScheduler = '* * 1 * * *';
const host = '192.168.1.08';
const port = 27017;
const backupDest = 'myBackup';

/* All params are optional having default values as following:
    cronScheduler = * * 1 * * * // will run on 1 AM every day
    host = 127.0.0.1 i.e localhost
    port = 27017
    backupDest = //scheduling date
*/
mongodbBackup.scheduleBackup(cronScheduler,host, port, backupDest);

Cron-style Scheduling

The cron format consists of:

*    *    *    *    *    *
