Dgraph Backup and Restore X

dgbrx is a Go commandline tool which helps to do a backup, restore or clean on a Dgraph Cloud (aka slash / managed) instance.

Installation ✨

cd cmd/dgbrx
go build .
./dgbrx --help

Usage 🤔

There are primarily three commands for dgbrx: backup, restore and clean. dgbrx backup requests a backup from the provided Dgraph Instance, and waits for the backup to complete, which is then written to disk. dgraph restore can restore the backups to a dgraph instance, and dgraph clean drops the schema and all the data along with it.

Workflow 🔧

A general backup-restore workflow for dgraph is given below:

dgbrx backup --url https://some-cool-url.region.gcp.cloud.dgraph.io \
  --api-key "SUPERSECRETAPIKEY"
  
dgbrx restore --url https://another-cool-url.region.gcp.gcloud.dgraph.io \
  --api-key "SUPERSECRETAPIKEYBUTDIFFERENTONE" \
  --json g01.json.gz \
  --schema g01.schema.gz

Roadmap 🛣️

• Add support for multiple storage backends (Google Cloud Storage, S3 Bucket, etc.)
• Implement unmanaged Dgraph Instance backup and restore.

Motivation 💪

dgbr, another open source dgraph backup and restore software did not support cloud.dgraph.io (managed Dgraph Instances), since they use a slightly different API.
