This is a quick bash script I built to handle db export and docroot backup for my local vagrant box. Potentially useful if you are using a Vagrant box that does not backup files and db on Vagrant Destroy. Note that you'll need to add your password to run the copy command on line 31.

backup.sh

#! /bin/bash
# create variables for directories
main_backup_dir=$HOME/Development/backups
vagrant_dir=$HOME/Development/hgv/hgv_data 
vagrant_root_dir=$HOME/Development/hgv
today="$(date +'%m-%d-%Y')"_daily_backup 
daily_backup_dir=$HOME/Development/backup/$today

# print directories to screen for testing
echo ----------: Main backup dir: $main_backup_dir
echo ----------: Vagrant directory: $vagrant_dir
echo ----------: Daily backup directory: $daily_backup_dir

# mysql backup
cd ${vagrant_root_dir}
echo ----------: changed to vagrant directory
pwd
vagrant ssh --command "mysqldump -u root --all-databases > ${today}.sql" && 
echo ----------: sql dump successful || echo ----------: sql dump failed
vagrant ssh --command "sudo mv ${today}.sql /hgv_data/sql-backup" &&
echo ----------: sql dump moved to backup directory || echo ----------: sql dump failed to move into backup directory

# if backup directory does not exist create directory and copy files
if [ -d ${daily_backup_dir} ] 
then
	echo ----------: $daily_backup_dir exists
	echo ----------: backup has alredy run today
	echo "This is an automated status message" | mail -s "Local backup: alredy run today" you@yourdomain.com
else 
	mkdir ${daily_backup_dir}
	echo your_password_here | sudo cp -r ${vagrant_dir} /$daily_backup_dir && 
	echo ----------: files copied && echo "This is an automated status message" | mail -s "Local backup: successful" you@yourdomain.com || 
	echo backup failed && echo "This is an automated status message" | mail -s "Local backup: failed" you@yourdomain.com
