Backup solution for docker volumes
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I made my own solution since I wasn't impressed by projects I had found. There's two parts, the backup image and the restore image.
I use it like so:
The restore container looks for a file called RESTORED in
/data
and if one isn't found it'll try to restore the latest backup (if available) and then create a RESTORED file. The backup container ignores this file during backup.
