How to backup a database in RavenDB?

@dora 

To back up a database in RavenDB, you can use the .backup command in the RavenDB Management Studio or the Raven.Backup.exe tool.

Here is an example of how to use the Raven.Backup.exe tool:

1

Raven.Backup.exe --url=http://localhost:8080 --database=Northwind --backup-path=C:BackupsNorthwind.ravendb-backup

This will create a backup of the Northwind database in the specified path.

You can also use the .raven command to create a backup from the command line:

1

ravendb backup --database=Northwind --output-folder=C:Backups

You can also schedule automatic backups using the RavenDB Management Studio or by using the raven.scheduled-backup configuration setting in the settings.json file.

It is a good idea to regularly back up your RavenDB databases to protect against data loss.

Alternatively, you can also use the Raven.Backup.exe tool to back up a database. Here is an example of how to use it:

1. Open the command prompt or terminal.
2. Navigate to the location where the RavenDB server is installed.
3. Use the following command to create a backup: Raven.Backup.exe --url=[RavenDB server URL] --database=[database name] --backup-path=[backup path] Replace [RavenDB server URL] with the URL of your RavenDB server, [database name] with the name of the database you want to back up, and [backup path] with the path where you want to store the backup file. For example: Raven.Backup.exe --url=http://localhost:8080 --database=Northwind --backup-path=C:BackupsNorthwind.ravendb-backup This command will create a backup of the "Northwind" database in the specified path.

Remember to create regular backups of your RavenDB databases to ensure data integrity and be prepared for potential data loss scenarios.
