---

DB Backup Runner is used to backup any database from other containers. Since it uses the backup tool (e.g. pgdump) from inside the database container it is easy to add support for many databases.

The script can also make backups from multiple containers and is configured with labels (in docker compose).

NOTE: It works best together with docker compose, although it should work with docker alone, but at the moment it is only tested with docker compose.

For more information check out the documentation.
