Backing up Postgresql databases running in Docker container

Configuration

Please create a configuration file which defines the following variables.

#Where to put the dumps
backupFilepath="/var/vaultwarden/backup/"
#How many dumps shall be kept
rotationDays=7
#Database settings
dockerContainerName=docker_vaultwarden 
#Location of the vaultwarden data folder
dataFilePath="/var/data/vaultwarden/"

Pass this configuration file as parameter to the script. To automate the backup job, I recommend to put the script in your crontab:

50 2 * * * root /root/scripts/backup/vaultwardenBackup/backup_vaultwarden /root/scripts/backup/vaultwardenBackup/vaultwardenBackup.conf
