In the production environments, data loss when we accidentally delete the files, or when server crashes or system fails, or when we applied migrations to the data that didn't work so we don't get previous data with the schema.
So we need to do data dump each time or every day when we do changes in the production
In this blog post, you will see how to take a backup, restore your database for MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB databases.
Mysql:
Data Backup Command:
mysqldump -u user_name -puser_password database_name > mysql_dump_file
Data Restore Command:
mysql -u username -p database_name < mysql_dump_file
user_name: Mysql username
password: Mysql Password
database_name: database name
mysql_dump_file: the file to which you want to dump the data
Postgresql:
Data Backup Command:
psql -U user_name -h host_name db_name < pgsql_dump_file
Data Restore Command:
psql -U user_name -h host_name db_name < pgsql_dump_file
user_name: MySQL username
password: Mysql Password
db_name: database name
pgsql_dump_file: the file to which you want to dump the data
Mongo db:
Data Backup Command:
mongodump --username user_name --password pass_word --db database_name --out path_to_your_dump_directory
mongoexport --username user_name --password pass_word --db database_name --collection collection_name --out collection_name.json
Data Restore Command:
mongorestore --username user_name --password pass_word --db database_name path_to_your_dump_directory
mongorestore --collection collection_name --db database_name path_to_your_dump_collection
user_name: mongo username
password: mongo Password
collection_name: database collection name
database_name: database name
