I have little experience with the command line and working directly with servers so far. Before Wordops, I used the VPSSIM console. But the author stopped supporting his product. There was a very convenient function for backing up and restoring sites. It was enough to select a few items and the backup is ready.

I think many people would find this feature useful in Wordops.
For example, implement something like: wo site mysite.com --backup and wo site mysite.com --restore

How do I backup now:

  • First I go to the site folder and zip? example cd var/www/mysite.com and zip -r backup.zip htdocs
  • then I dump the database mysqldump -uroot -p mydatabasename > /var/www/mysitedump.sql
  • And then I download all this via ftp
    I repeat, I'm a completely newbie and I came to this option in stages using Google 😀 . I would like to know who how organizes their work on creating backups, and perhaps, or rather, most likely, there are best practices for creating backups. Share your options.

you can modify your existing backup method too and make it automated backup system on remote storage (ftp/sftp), just create bash script and add task in crontab

    corus9 Thanks for the tip, I will be looking into this opportunity.

    marty I don't want to use plugins. Thanks for the link with the answers!

    Cool that this is planned in wordops! 😀
