Build and Push backhaul-agent / build (push) Successful in 42s
One docker run on a database's private network starts backing it up: - backhaul-agent.py: stdlib-only sidecar — every-minute check-in, app-owned dump schedule, streams pg_dump/mysqldump/mongodump home chunked, self-updates. - entrypoint.sh: bootstraps the newest script, installs the once-a-minute cron (sources persisted env), runs once immediately, hands off to cron; logs to a file surfaced via docker logs. - Dockerfile: debian-slim + pg_dump 17 (PGDG — required for Postgres 17 servers) + mysql client. Mongo tools to follow. - CI builds + pushes the public image and asserts the dump tools are present.

"""backhaul agent — the containerized DB-backup client. Runs as a sidecar on a database's
|
|
private Docker network: it reaches the DB internally and calls home outbound over HTTPS.
|
|
No inbound ports. Stdlib only; the DB client tools (pg_dump/mysqldump/mongodump) come from
|
|
the image.
|
|
|
|
Every minute (in-container cron) it CHECKS IN: heartbeats, reports the databases it can see,
|
|
delivers any pending dump result, and asks what to do. The app owns the schedule and replies
|
|
with a dump command when one is due; the agent then dumps and streams it home. The app also
|
|
advertises the current agent-script version, and the agent self-updates (atomic swap after a
|
|
compile check) — same mechanism as snapshoot.
|
|
|
|
Config (env, from the `docker run`):
|
|
BACKHAUL_URL e.g. https://backhaul.skui.io
|
|
BACKHAUL_TOKEN agent token from the backhaul admin
|
|
BACKHAUL_TARGETS comma-separated DB targets, each: engine:host:port:db:user:pass
|

e.g. postgres:db:5432:nextcloud:nextcloud:nextcloud
