# mongodb-backup
A solution to automate mongodb backup
* https://medium.com/@saiprasanth2007/easy-mongo-backup-solution-to-azure-blob-8fd44d143ede
* https://hub.docker.com/u/sai3010
# How it works
* There is a python script ```mongo-bkp.py``` which connects to mongo db and takes mongo dump.
* After the execution of the mongo dump , it zip's the folder by appending current datetime and uploads to azure blob storage.
* It is saved in azure blob as ```containername/date/backup_date.zip```
* It accepts following environment variables
* ```MONGO_HOST```: Mongo host url.
* ```MONGO_USER```: Mongo user is required if mongo is secured with user credentials
* ```MONGO_PASS```: Mongo user's password
* ```BACKUP_FOLDER```: Name of the root folder to be uploaded in blob storage
* ```FILENAME```: zip folder name appended with date and uploaded under backup_folder in blob storage
* ```CONTAINER_NAME```: Azure container name
* ```ACCOUNT_NAME```: Azure storage account name
* ```ACCOUNT_KEY```: Azure storage account key
# How to excecute
* ```docker pull sai3010/mongo-azure-backup ```
* ```docker run --net=host --rm -e MONGO_HOST="localhost" -e BACKUP_FOLDER="test" -e FILENAME="backup" -e CONTAINER_NAME="mongo" -e ACCOUNT_NAME="data" -e ACCOUNT_KEY="Y76I9TacyJALGJLeEw2cIFw" -it mongo-azure-backup```
* When the container is run , it connects to mongo , takes a dump and uploads to blob storage.
## Note : Preffered method of using this docker image effectively is by running it through a schedular or cron jobs
