etcd2s3

A simple tool to backup an etcd2 cluster into an AWS S3 bucket.

Usage

##Get the code:

go get https://github.com/revinate/etc2s3

##Compile it:

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/revinate/etcd2s3; go build

##Run it: Required environment variables:

• AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

• AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID

• ETCD2S3_BUCKET_NAME

• ETCD2S3_DATA_DIR - the path to the etcd2 data directory (where the backup utility will start from)

Optional environment variables:

• ETCD2S3_REPEAT_INTERVAL - if set using time.ParseDuration, this will keep the utility running and attempt a backup after each interval. For example, if set to "5m", the backup/ship will run every 5 minutes.

Once these are set with valid values:

./etcd2s3

Roadmap

• remove dependency on "etcdctl"
• remove dependence on disk for backup ("etcdctl backup"...can we stream directly to tar/zipper?)
• use spf13/cobra or some other CLI building tool
• tests!
