The Hero: Your Daily Backup Script

Meet daily_backup.sh, a script designed to sweep through your directories every day, archive them, and keep things tidy.

First, we generate a date-stamped backup folder to keep everything organized:

DATE=$(date +'%Y-%m-%d')
BACKUP_DIR_BASE="/mnt/backup"
BACKUP_DIR="$BACKUP_DIR_BASE/$DATE"

echo "Making backup folder for $DATE"
mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR"

Our script then logs its actions, compresses important directories using tar, and handles any hiccups gracefully.

The Routine: Archiving and Logging

To compress directories like sites and scripts, we use tar and log each step with timestamps for clarity:

log() {
    echo "$(date +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') - $1"
}

log "Backing up /path/to/sites"
tar -czf $BACKUP_DIR/sites_$DATE.tar.gz /path/to/sites || { log "Backup failed"; exit 1; }
log "Backup completed successfully."

Our script even plays cleanup, deleting backups older than five days to keep storage lean.

Automation: The Cron Job

A backup script isn’t much use if you forget to run it. That’s where cron comes in, scheduling our script to run daily at 2:00 AM:

0 2 * * * /path/to/daily_backup.sh

This way, backups happen quietly while you sleep, like a data-saving ninja.

The Result: Peace of Mind

With this setup, you can rest easy. Your data is safe, your backups are automatic, and your mornings are free from backup stress. Sometimes, automation really does feel like art. So sip your coffee, and thank the humble cron job for its silent service.
