Introduction
We will see how to backup site and database in Codeigniter. In the world of web it is important to take backup of our site and database frequently. We don’t know when we’d come across unexpected situation which causes our site stop working. Here I have developed an application in Codeigniter, which will help you to take backup as per your wish whenever you want to take backup. While most web hosting company do a daily backup of a customer’s database and site, relying on them to make backups and provide them at no cost is risky also.
Never take chances when your website is on the line. Make frequent backups !
If you do not want it to use with Codeigniter you could also use it in simple PHP application and for that you just need to understand the logic carefully so that you can convert the code into equivalent PHP.
Prerequisites
Apache 2.4 http server, PHP 7.3.5, Codeigniter 3.1.10, MySQL 5.6
Note I have used
md5()for encrypting some values. It’s up to you which algorithm you want to use.
Example with Source Code
Please go through the below sections for coding example on how to take backup site and database using COdeigniter.
Creating MySQL Tables
First thing is we need to create database tables.
The below backup table holds the information for backup:
CREATE TABLE `backup` (
`backup_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`backup_name` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`backup_location` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`created_date` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
PRIMARY KEY (`backup_id`),
UNIQUE KEY `backup_name_UNIQUE` (`backup_name`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=1 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;The below session table holds session information for each client:
CREATE TABLE `session` (
`id` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`ip_address` varchar(20) NOT NULL,
`timestamp` int(10) unsigned DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL,
`data` blob NOT NULL,
KEY `ci_sessions_timestamp` (`timestamp`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;If you do not want to save the session information then you can use default session storage mechanism – file system. To use default session storage mechanism you just need to specify the physical path for sess_save_path in application/config/config.php file. For example, if you want to save into application/cache directory then set as sess_save_path = APPPATH . 'cache/';
Creating Directory – assets
Create assets directory, where css, images and js files will reside, at the root level i.e. parallel to application directory as shown into the picture.
Download images from the below link and put into assets/images directory
Creating Directory – backups
Create backups/databases and backups/sites directory which will hold the backups for databases and sites correspondingly as shown below picture
Database Configurations
Configure database settings at location application/config/database.php.
$db['default']['hostname'] = 'localhost';
$db['default']['username'] = 'root';
$db['default']['password'] = '';
$db['default']['database'] = 'blog';
$db['default']['dbdriver'] = 'mysqli';Session Configuration
Modify the config.php file at location application/config/config.php for session.
I am not using index.php file in URL so you can go through tutorial how to remove index.php from URL in Codeigniter
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['encryption_key'] = '2d8+e6]K0?ocWp7&`K)>6Ky"|.x|%nuwafC~S/+6_mZI9/17y=sKKG.;Tt}k';
$config['sess_driver'] = 'database';
$config['sess_save_path'] = 'session';Autoload Configuration
Modify the autoload.php file at location application/config/autoload.php to auto-load few drivers and helpers to avoid repeated loading such things.
$autoload['libraries'] = array('database', 'session');
$autoload['helper'] = array('url', 'file', 'text', 'form');Creating View File
This view gives the presentation how the inputs will be available to the end users.
