- Admin page: an optional label (at most 100 characters) for a backup started with "Back up now";
an (i) by "removed by retention policy" in the trash that explains what it means and until when
the restore point can be brought back. backup:trash says the same below its list.
- backup:status, backup:list, backup:trash and backup:browse show times in the zone of the daily
schedule and name it, instead of the server's UTC.
- backup:restore --to-directory of a file restored nothing: the path got a "/" appended.
- A restore removes "<name>.ngb-restore-<hex>" temporaries that a stopped restore left in the
folders it writes to.
- Roadmap: the cron warning (#13), reading ahead from S3/SMB and --salvage move to 1.0.2.
On S3, index files and the tree segments read back when a snapshot is
written are fetched 16 at a time through the storage's S3 client
(IBackend::getRanges(), getMany()). Blobs that follow each other in a pack
are read as one range on every location. The snapshot is written in a step
of its own and the run shows "commit" meanwhile. On a 1 TB production
repository the check went from about 4 hours to 3.5 minutes.
backup:status and the web interface list the runs of the last 7 days,
running ones and at least the newest 5; --all / "Show older runs" list
all. Durations of a day or more show the days.
A run only showed "running (files)", which says nothing during a backup
of a terabyte. The files phase now records an expected size on its first
step: the previous snapshot's size, or for a first backup the users'
files, versions and trash from Nextcloud's file cache (approximate, shown
with a ~). The web interface and occ backup:status show the share of it
done so far, including a large file that is still being read; it stays
below 100% until the run finishes.
RepositoryImportSource::copyToFolder() called putContent() on the generic
return type of Node::get(), which doesn't declare that method -- only
File does. Existing-file overwrite during a per-user restore would have
fatally errored at runtime; added an instanceof check and a resource leak
fix (finally-close) while there. Also guarded getFileAsStream() against
fopen() returning false.
Everything else Psalm (strict level) currently flags is mechanical
(missing `final` on leaf classes -- applied everywhere safe) or pre-existing
array-shape/type gaps, captured in psalm-baseline.xml so CI fails only on
new issues from here on, not the whole backlog at once.
BackupService starts a run per location (database dump in one
transaction, then config + data directory as a resumable file run),
stores the state in ngb_runs after every step, locks a run while a step
executes and records the snapshot. Previews, logs, updater backups and
per-user cache/uploads are excluded (TreeWalker now supports patterns).
BackupJob (every 5 min) starts the daily schedule and steps running runs
with a short budget under web cron and a long one under system cron.
occ: backup:run, backup:status, backup:list.
Tested on NC34/PostgreSQL: first run 128 files / 1 GiB in 64 s (443 MiB
uploaded to S3), unchanged second run 2 s / 0 bytes; a background run to
SFTP completed through cron.php.
