Update

Make sure to stop the correct container when needed.

1. Backup media

   • docker exec -it synapse /bin/bash
   • mkdir /backup && cd /backup
   • tar cvzf synapse_backup.tar.gz /data
   • docker cp synapse:/backup/synapse_backup.tar.gz ./backup

2. Backup database

   • docker exec -it synapse-postgres /bin/bash
   • psql -U <user> -l
   • pg_dump -U <user> -Fc synapse > synapse.dump
   • Apply this (^) for the bridges databases
   • docker cp synapse-postgres:/synapse.dump ./backup
   • Apply this (^) for the bridges databases

3. Update

   • docker-compose pull
   • docker-compose up -d

4. Restore (if needed, usually with bridges)

   • docker cp ./backup/synapse.dump synapse-postgres:/data
   • docker exec -it synapse-postgres /bin/bash
   • psql -U <user> -c "CREATE DATABASE synapse;"
   • pg_restore -C -U <user> -d synapse /var/lib/postgresql/data/synapse.dump
