Rosdump
=========
[](https://circleci.com/gh/ecadlabs/rosdump/tree/master)
rosdump is a tool for backing up and optionally tracking configuration of
RouterOS devices.
Use rosdump to:
- Backup Mikrotik network device configurations to your local file system
- Backup Mikrotik network device configurations to a git repository
- Run as a daemon that backs up devices on a predefined schedule
# Quick Start
The following example uses the docker image to backup a RouterOS device. Create
a config named `rosdump.yml` on your computer using the example below.
Specify the IP address, admin user and password of your own device.
## Config example that writes backup to local filesystem
```yaml
version: 1
devices:
list:
- host: 192.168.88.1
common: # Overrides per-device settings
driver: ssh-command
timeout: 30s # See https://golang.org/pkg/time/#ParseDuration
command: export
username: admin
password: password
storage:
driver: file
timeout: 30s
path: '/opt/backups/{{.host}}/{{.time.UTC.Format "2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00"}}'
timeout: 30s # Optional timeout for a whole work cycle
interval: 4h # Duration between backups when running as a daemon
```
Assuming your config file is named `rosdump.yaml`, and you have docker
installed on your computer, run the following command:
```
docker run --rm \
-v $(realpath rosdump.yml):/etc/rosdump.yml \
-v $(realpath backups):/opt/backups ecadlabs/rosdump
```
You will now have a backup of your configuration in a directory named
`backups/` in your present working directory.

#### Example config for git storage
```yaml
version: 1
devices:
list:
- host: 192.168.88.1
common:
driver: ssh-command
timeout: 30s
command: export
username: admin
identity_file: /etc/rosdump/routeros_admin_private_key
storage:
driver: git
timeout: 30s
url: [email protected]:yourorg/networkbackups.git
identity_file: /etc/rosdump/git_deploy_key
destination_path: '{{.host}}'
push: true
name: Network Backup
email: [email protected]
commit_message: 'Rosdump backup {{.time.UTC.Format "2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00"}}'
timeout: 30s
interval: 4h
```
## Template data fields (transaction metadata)
Currently `ssh-command` driver exposes all its options (except password) as a transaction metadata. Additionally `time` field is set to transaction timestamp (see the description of Go `time.Time` type).
