Bug 69309

Description andreas 2004-07-19 19:20:09 UTC

	The mysql port is missing a script for nightly backup
	of all databases.

	Inspired by Palle Girgensons backup script in the postgresql
	port I wrote an enhanced script where you can enable/disable
	the script in /etc/rc.conf as well as finetune the script
	with additional parameters for rc.conf

	Implementation notes:
	1) The script filters db's with names "Database" and "backups" since
	   mysql treats every subdir under "base dbdir" as potential db-dir

	2) The default mysql database directory is possibly not /var/db/mysql
	   But IMHO it would be a good thing

	3) The default mysql "super-user" with all rights is possibly not
	   "root" user. It might be "mysql", I don't remember the defaults.

Fix: 

Install this script under
	/usr/local/etc/periodic/daily/503.mysql

# Put this script into /usr/local/etc/periodic/daily
#
# Add the following line(s) to /etc/rc.conf
# to enable and fine-tune nightly backup of all mysql databases:
#
# mysql_backup_enable (bool):	Set to "NO" by default
#				Set it to "YES" to enable nightly backup
# mysql_db_user (str):		Set to "root" by default (the mysql "db root")
#				Modify it for your needs (might be "mysql")
# mysql_db_passwd (str):	Set to "dbpasswd" by default
#				Modify it for your needs
# mysql_db_host (str):		Set to "localhost" by default
# mysql_backup_dir (str):	Set to "/var/db/mysql/backups" by default
#				Modify it for your needs
# mysql_backup_save_days (str):	Set to "7" by default
#				Set it to the no. of mysql backup's you want to keep
#
# mysql_dump_args (str):	By default set to:
#			-u$mysql_db_user -p$mysql_db_passwd -h$mysql_db_host
