# influxdb-s3-backup

A docker container for backing up your InfluxDB to AWS S3. It works on a Raspberry Pi as well.

# Docker Hub

Released to [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/damadden88/influxdb-s3-backup). Supported platforms: linux/amd64,linux/arm64

# Usage

## Default cron (1am daily)

```shell
docker run \
-e DATABASE=mydatabase \
-e DATABASE_HOST=1.2.3.4 \
-e S3_BUCKET=mybackupbucket \
-e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE \
-e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY \
-e AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-west-2 \
damadden88/influxdb-to-s3:latest
```

or if you just start your docker compose deployment

## Run Docker Container

```shell
docker run \
-e DATABASE=mydatabase \
-e DATABASE_HOST=1.2.3.4 \
-e S3_BUCKET=mybackupbucket \
-e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE \
-e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY \
-e AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-west-2 \
damadden88/influxdb-to-s3:latest
```

## Docker Compose deployment

### Preparation

You need to set you AWS Credentials before like:

```
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAxx
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=7PBRxx
```

And than run:

```
docker-compose up -d --build
```

### Example

```yaml
version: '3.3'

services:
influxdb:
image: influxdb:latest
environment:
INFLUXDB_DB: mydb
INFLUXDB_BIND_ADDRESS: 0.0.0.0:8088
influxdbs3backup:
build:
context: .
environment:
DATABASE: mydb
DATABASE_HOST: influxdb
S3_BUCKET: mybackupbucket
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION: us-west-2
CRON: '* * * * *'
```

### Run backup

```shell
docker run \
-e DATABASE=mydatabase \
-e DATABASE_HOST=1.2.3.4 \
-e S3_BUCKET=mybackupbucket \
-e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE \
-e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY \
-e AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-west-2 \
damadden88/influxdb-to-s3:latest \
backup
```

### Restore

**Warning** - Restores [cannot be run on a running InfluxDB instance](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.1/administration/backup_and_restore/#restore), which precludes doing a remote restore. This means there is a requirement for the restore container to have local access to the influxdb `meta` and `data` directories, which are probably located in `/var/lib/influxdb` unless you've done something non-standard. You must therefore pass in the influxdb directory as a volume instead of specifying the host.

```shell
docker run \
-v /path/to/influxdb:/var/lib/influxdb \
-e DATABASE=mydatabase \
-e S3_BUCKET=mybackupbucket \
-e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE \
-e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY \
-e AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-west-2 \
damadden88/influxdb-to-s3:latest \
restore
```
