== Manual backup procedure ==
 
Note: this is currently running automatically daily using a Crontab job on server, except for the part of transferring backup files back to a personal account for personal and Google Drive backup copy. But if you need to do it manually or reset up the Crontab job, below are the commands,&nbsp; shown prefaced by the shell prompt '%':&nbsp;
<pre>% ssh yimbywiki@yimby.wiki</pre>
 
now enter password for account 'yimbywiki'.&nbsp;
<pre>% php yimby.wiki/maintenance/dumpBackup.php --full | gzip > ~/backup/wiki-yimby_wiki-XML-$(date +%Y%m%d).xml.gz</pre>
 
that puts a date-labeled backup file X.xml.gz into /backup
<pre>% cd backup
 
% tar -zcvf "$(date '+%F').tar.gz" /home/yimbywiki/yimby.wiki
 
% mysqldump -u yimbywiki --password=XXXXXXXX --host=mysql.yimby.wiki yimby_wiki -c | gzip > ~/backup/wiki-yimby_wiki-$(date '+%Y%m%d').sql.gz</pre>
 
[note: replace XXXXXXXX with real database password].&nbsp;
 
To then retrive these backup files to personal computer, to store backups there and automatically on Google Drive:&nbsp;
 
Open terminal window.&nbsp;
 
Change to correct&nbsp;local directory, e.g.&nbsp;
<pre>% cd ~Users > tim > Google Drive > Tim > YIMBYwiki > site-backup</pre>
 
Now sftp to server:
<pre>% sftp yimbywiki@yimby.wiki
sftp> cd backup
sftp> get [1st backup file just created]
sftp> get [2nd backup file just created]
sftp> get [3rd backup file just created] </pre>
 
These will then in turn get backed up automatically by Google Backup and Sync / Google Drive, at least on Tim's computers.&nbsp;<br/> &nbsp;
