backdown databases

backdown databases [OPTIONS] [Q]

Arguments#

[Q]

Only databases whose name or paths contain this.

Options#

--json

Print it as JSON, for scripts.

Also takes the global options --db and --local.

Good to know#

A database is gathered from every dump of it (mysqldump, phpMyAdmin, pg_dump, pg_dumpall, mongodump folders), its live data directory in a server backup (MySQL, MariaDB), SQLite files, and the sites and Nextcloud servers configured to use it (wp-config.php, configuration.php, .env, config/config.php). Dumps are named from their header when the drive is connected, else from the file name without its date. Compressed dumps say nothing in the header; the browser's viewer still streams them.

Examples#
