A Docker image that periodically backs up PostgreSQL databases to a local filesystem using pg_dump, with configurable rotation of daily, weekly, and monthly backups. It supports multiple databases per host and multiple CPU architectures.
Use cases
- back up postgres databases to local disk on a schedule
- rotate postgres backups daily weekly monthly
- docker compose sidecar container for postgres backups
- dump multiple postgres databases periodically
- self-hosted postgres backup without cloud storage
When to choose
- you run Postgres in Docker and want simple scheduled local backups with retention
- you need a lightweight sidecar container configured via environment variables
- you want multi-architecture images including ARM
When to avoid
- you need backups to S3 or other remote object storage
- your backup volume is not POSIX-compliant (VFAT, exFAT, SMB/CIFS)
- you need point-in-time recovery or WAL archiving rather than logical dumps
