BackupSqlShell

Runs mysqldump on a database.

Requirements

CakePHP 2.x
PHP 5.3

Installation

Add the plugin to your project's composer.json - something like this:

	{
		"require": {
			"gilleswittenberg/backup-sql": "dev-master"
		}
	}

Because this plugin has the type cakephp-plugin set in its own composer.json, Composer will install it inside your /Plugins directory, rather than in the usual vendors file. It is recommended that you add /Plugins/BackupSql to your .gitignore file. (Why? read this.)

[Manual]

Download this: http://github.com/gilleswittenberg/BackupSql/zipball/master
Unzip that download.
Copy the resulting folder to app/Plugin
Rename the folder you just copied to BackupSql

[GIT Submodule]

In your app directory type:

	git submodule add -b master git://github.com/gilleswittenberg/BackupSql.git Plugin/BackupSql
	git submodule init
	git submodule update

[GIT Clone]

In your Plugin directory type:

	git clone -b master git://github.com/gilleswittenberg/BackupSql.git BackupSql

Enable plugin

In 2.0 you need to enable the plugin in your app/Config/bootstrap.php file:

	CakePlugin::load('BackupSql');

If you are already using CakePlugin::loadAll();, then this is not necessary.

Usage

Run the shell on your cli:

Console/cake BackupSql.backup_sql default backup.sql

This will create a backup of the mysql data configured in your default database connection in the app/tmp/backups directory named backup.sql.
