Discourse google drive Backup plugin

Support
1

Hello friends,

one day i found here a plugin the allows backups to google drive but now i cant find it,
can you help me and add the link for me here ?

also a question about the plugin ability:
in wordpress vaultpress backups everything, when you lose the entire website you can bring it back in one click, can this plugin do the same.
in the other word can you restore the database, users, posts, style and even the media file ?
can i bring back the entire website in one click ?

Thanks in adance.

search “plugin backup”. Find Synchronizer-base for any backup provider.

A Discourse backup has everything in it except the Discourse application itself. You need a copy of your app.yml for a full rebuild.

I have setted up a cron Job to execute gdive to sync with my google drive account:

gdrive sync upload /var/discourse/shared/standalone/backups/default FOLDER-ID-HERE

What happens if for any reason the backups in your discourse folder are deleted? Are the backups on google drive deleted too?

Yes but google has its magical “history” so you can recover any file if deleted by mistake

Good!
What tool did you use to make your sync? This one? https://github.com/gdrive-org/gdrive
