--- name: backup-script-gen description: Generate database backup scripts with AI. Use when you need automated backups to S3, GCS, or local storage. --- # Backup Script Generator Setting up database backups involves shell scripts, cron jobs, cloud CLI tools, and retention policies. This tool generates complete backup scripts for any database to any destination. **One command. Zero config. Just works.** ## Quick Start ```bash npx ai-backup-script "PostgreSQL daily to S3" ``` ## What It Does - Generates complete backup scripts with error handling - Supports all major databases (Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis) - Handles cloud destinations (S3, GCS, Azure Blob) - Includes retention and rotation logic ## Usage Examples ```bash # PostgreSQL to S3 npx ai-backup-script "PostgreSQL daily to S3 with 30 day retention" # MongoDB to Google Cloud Storage npx ai-backup-script "MongoDB hourly to GCS" # MySQL to local with rotation npx ai-backup-script "MySQL weekly to /backups with 4 week rotation" # Redis with compression npx ai-backup-script "Redis snapshot to S3 compressed" ``` ## Best Practices - **Test your restores** - a backup you can't restore is useless - **Monitor failures** - add alerting to your backup jobs - **Encrypt at rest** - especially for cloud storage - **Document the restore process** - future you will thank present you ## When to Use This - Setting up backups for a new database - Migrating from manual backups to automated - Need a quick backup script for a side project - Want a starting point to customize ## Part of the LXGIC Dev Toolkit This is one of 110+ free developer tools built by LXGIC Studios.
