Thanks a lot @pirate
Would you give us a migration or restore example ??
Thank you very much for this script!
A restore script would be greatly appreciated :)
I am getting permission denied problem on an AWS machine. Do I need to run this script as admin
? Or should I tweak the volumes
key in my docker-compose.yml
file?
Looks like these are from mariadb service.

Very very cool script! It is easy to use.
But restore with docker load < backupfile_from_docker_compose.tar.gz
is not possible.
This command ends with the message open /var/lib/docker/tmp/docker-import-805572190/opt/json: no such file or directory
. How i can solve this?
@necotec The top-level archive contains much more than just the image file. You have to uncompress the top-level .tar.gz
to get the image file within, then pass the image file to docker load < ...
.
Hi and thanks for the awsome script.
Can you add the note in the comment section, that jq needs to be installed?
I've just stumbled about this not being installed by default on my debian.
oh and maybe the hint that the container must be up and running for the backup 😄
Best regards
Bastian

Don't use docker-compose installed with snap. This will result in the cp: cannot stat '/var/lib/docker/containers/f7d4e........ error. Install docker-compose the manual way.
Hi not sure if someone else has gotten this
bak.sh: 8: set: Illegal option -o errtrace
running on ubuntu 20 LTS server
Nice script. What doesn't work properly is the execution of the script from another directory, since the docker-compose
calls are missing the -p
option.
It's not intended to work from another directory, you must place the script inside the dir that contains your docker-compose.yml
file.
I am very fresh to docker and compose as well, but I managed to offload my Home Assistant with some add ons using another linux machine with docker compose
currently I am running there:
docker compose config --services
chrony
duckdns
grafana
mariadb
mosquitto
node-red
phpmyadmin
pihole
timemachine
wireguard
now, I am trying to find some good backup solution. and this is how I landed here.
I took your script, modified where needed "docker-compose" to "docker compose" and voila - all works.
But I have 3 questions:
1- my "timemachine" container uses "/mnt/timemachine" volume where the data is stored - apparently we are talking GB here, so I would like to exclude this container from the backup script - is there any way here to exclude it?
2- when database is backed up apparently it would be nice to stop it, right? not necessarily other containers - is there any easy way to do it in this script?
3- in case I stop the container (docker compose stop mariadb) - would simple command: "tar cfz maria.tar.gz /srv/docker/mariadb" be enough to really have EVERYTHING backed up for this container (of course, also the docker-compose.yml)?
what are all these "dumps", "logs" etc - isn't everything in the volume itself? provided my only volumes are inside the same folder, in this example /srv/docker/mariadb
thank you for your help ;)
- to exclude a container you'd modify this line to add a filter to the list of containers it loops through, e.g.
- for service_name in $(docker compose config --services); do
+ for service_name in $(docker compose config --services | grep -v timemachine); do
- this is up to you, pgdump and redis SAVE don't require you pause the container to ensure consistency, but if you need to pause your other containers to ensure consistency at the application layer, I did mention that in these lines already:
# Optional: pause the containers before backing up to ensure consistency
# docker compose pause
- no, that only backs up some of that containers state, there is other hidden state in the docker system like remote mounts, stdout/stderr log output, container config and environment state, etc. which is why this script exists in the first place. you can read the state it generates on
:67
,:71
, etc. to see how it's separate from the volume contents
@pirate i need your help, i customized the script and executed the one you shared as is, and my docker is gone, how do i reverse this
Awsome script, could you edit it so you can add environment variables for containers in the docker compose file so you can specify if you want to make backups of the attached volumes or not? For Example when backing-up Plex i dont want to backup the volume that contains my music and movies.
I add this feature : https://gist.github.com/GeoHolz/ee9362c82ee13f8a5690d86d6ec7bb0c
Thanks pirate !
bak.sh: 8: set: Illegal option -o errtrace
I assume you invoke the script withsh bak.sh
. Be sure to usebash bak.sh
