Backup multiple database containers from one backup runner container.

Documentation | Docker | PyPi

---

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).

For more information check out the documentation.
