Inspired by eeshugerman/postgres-backup-s3, I've created a Docker-based solution for automated PostgreSQL backups to Cloudflare R2 storage. This project provides a simple way to schedule regular backups of your PostgreSQL databases and store them securely in Cloudflare R2, with optional encryption.
Key features:
Simple configuration: Just set environment variables and you're good to go
Flexible scheduling: Supports various backup frequencies (@yearly, @monthly, @weekly, @daily, @hourly, or custom intervals)
Multi-version support: Works with PostgreSQL 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17
Encryption: Optional GPG encryption for sensitive data
Retention policies: Automatically clean up old backups based on configurable retention periods
Easy restoration: Simple commands to restore from the latest backup or a specific backup
Multi-architecture: Supports both amd64 and arm64 platforms
Why Cloudflare R2?
Cloudflare R2 offers S3-compatible object storage without egress fees, making it a cost-effective solution for database backups. This project makes it easy to leverage R2 for your PostgreSQL backup needs.
