Chapter 35. HTTPBackupAgent and backup client

Warning

For this service, you should configure the org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.config.JDBCConfigurationPersister in order to save the changes of the repository configuration. See the eXo JCR Configuration article at chapter '2 Portal and Standalone configuration' .

GateIn uses context /portal/rest, therefore you need to use http://host:port/portal/rest/ instread of http://host:port/rest/

GateIn uses form authentication, so first you need to login (url to form authentication is http://host:port/portal/login) and then perform requests.

Introduction

The service org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.backup.server.HTTPBackupAgent is REST-based front-end to service org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.backup.BackupManager. HTTPBackupAgent is representation BackupManager to creation backup, restore, getting status of current or completed backup/restore, etc.

The backup client is http client for HTTPBackupAgent.

HTTPBackupAgent

The HTTPBackupAgent is based on REST (see details about the REST Framework).

HTTPBackupAgent is using POST and GET methods for request.

The HTTPBackupAgent allows :

Start backup
Stop backup
Restore from backup
Delete the workspace
Get information about backup service (BackupManager)
Get information about current backup / restores / completed backups

HTTPBackupAgent Configuration

Add the components org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.backup.server.HTTPBackupAgent and org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.backup.BackupManager to services configuration :


<component>

  <type>org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.backup.server.HTTPBackupAgent</type>

</component>



<component>

  <type>org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.repository.RestRepositoryService</type>

</component>



<component>

  <key>org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.backup.BackupManager</key>

  <type>org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.backup.impl.BackupManagerImpl</type>

  <init-params>

    <properties-param>

      <name>backup-properties</name>

      <property name="backup-dir" value="../temp/backup" />

    </properties-param>

  </init-params>

</component>

In case, if you will restore backup in same workspace (so you will drop previous workspace), you need configure RepositoryServiceConfiguration in order to save the changes of the repository configuration. For example


<component>

  <key>org.exoplatform.services.jcr.config.RepositoryServiceConfiguration</key>

  <type>org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.config.RepositoryServiceConfigurationImpl</type>

  <init-params>

    <value-param>

      <name>conf-path</name>

      <description>JCR repositories configuration file</description>

      <value>jar:/conf/portal/exo-jcr-config.xml</value>

    </value-param>

    <properties-param>

      <name>working-conf</name>

      <description>working-conf</description>

      <property name="source-name" value="jdbcjcr" />

      <property name="dialect" value="hsqldb" />

      <property name="persister-class-name" value="org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.config.JDBCConfigurationPersister" />

    </properties-param>

  </init-params>

</component>

Backup Client

For GateIn should use context "/portal/rest". GateIn uses form authentication, so first you need to login (url to form authentication is http://host:port/portal/login) and then perform requests.

Backup client is support form authentication. For example call command "info" with form authentication to GateIn :

./jcrbackup.sh http://127.0.0.1:8080/portal/rest form POST "/portal/login?initialURI=/portal/private&username=root&password=gtn" info

Backup client is console application.

The backup client is http client for HTTPBackupAgent.

Command signature:

Help info:
 <url_basic_authentication>|<url form authentication>  <cmd> 
 <url_basic_authentication>  :   http(s)//login:password@host:port/<context> 

 <url form authentication>   :   http(s)//host:port/<context> "<form auth parm>"

Full example about creating backup and restoring it for repository 'repository'

Note

If delete default repository that should be restored repository with name as default repository.

This usecase needs RestRepositoryService enabled. (Deleting the repository needs it)

Creating backup

jcrbackup http://root:exo@127.0.0.1:8080 start /repository ../temp/backup 10000

Return :

Successful : 
  status code = 200

Getting information about current backups

jcrbackup http://root:exo@127.0.0.1:8080 list

Return :

The current backups information : 
  1) Repository backup with id 9a4d40fb7f0000012ec8f0a4ec70b3da :
    repository name            : repository
    backup type                : full + incremetal
    full backups state         : finished
    incremental backups state  : working
    started time               : Mon, 11 Oct 2010 10:59:35 EEST

Stopping backup by id

Stop backup with id 9a4d40fb7f0000012ec8f0a4ec70b3da :

jcrbackup http://root:exo@127.0.0.1:8080 stop 9a4d40fb7f0000012ec8f0a4ec70b3da

Return :

Successful : 
  status code = 200

Deleting the repository "repository" and close all opened sessions

jcrbackup http://root:exo@127.0.0.1:8080 drop force-close-session /repository

Return :

Successful : 
  status code = 200

Restoring the repository "repository"

Delete/clean the database for workspace "repository": When we use "single-db", then we will run the SQL queries for clean database :
```
       drop table JCR_SREF;
       drop table JCR_SVALUE;
       drop table JCR_SITEM;
```
Delete the value storage for repository "repository";
Delete the index data for repository "repository";

Restore:

jcrbackup http://root:exo@127.0.0.1:8080 restore /repository 9a6dba327f000001325dfb228a181b07 /home/rainf0x/exo-jcr-config_backup.xml

Return :

Successful : 
  status code = 200
