今天给Gitlab做了一个备份，并且设置了每天自动备份，记录一下。
一、导出全部项目
由于Gitlab Web页面并没有自动备份的相关设置，只有各个项目有一个“导出项目”功能。为了保证安全，先把所有项目全部使用“导出项目”功能导出一遍，并复制出来。通过笔者之前的博文《gitlab迁移记》，可以知道Gitlab导出的项目是存储在/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/uploads/-/system/import_export_upload/export_file的。
二、设置备份配置
如果是在容器中运行的Gitlab，使用podman exec -it gitlab /bin/bash命令进入容器，修改/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb，如果是在宿主机直接安装的Gitlab，则直接修改/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb，打开如下配置：
### Backup Settings
###! Docs: https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/backups.html
gitlab_rails['manage_backup_path'] = true
gitlab_rails['backup_path'] = "/var/opt/gitlab/backups"
# gitlab_rails['backup_gitaly_backup_path'] = "/opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/gitaly-backup"
###! Docs: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/raketasks/backup_restore.html#backup-archive-permissions
gitlab_rails['backup_archive_permissions'] = 0644
# gitlab_rails['backup_pg_schema'] = 'public'
###! The duration in seconds to keep backups before they are allowed to be deleted
gitlab_rails['backup_keep_time'] = 604800
其中gitlab_rails['backup_keep_time']是设置备份保存时间，以秒为单位，604800为7天。
修改好配置后，使用gitlab-ctl reconfigure重新生成配置，再使用gitlab-ctl restart重启gitlab。
三、手动备份
按官方的说法，GitLab 12.2 及之后版本执行gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create；GitLab 12.1及之前版本执行gitlab-backup create。不过笔者14.5.0的Gitlab执行的gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create，也是可以的。
通过帮助可以看出gitlab-backup create就是gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create的包装命令。
# gitlab-backup create --help
Usage: gitlab-backup create [OPTIONS]
Create a new backup. Wrapper for `gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create`.
OPTIONS:
-h, --help Display this help message and exits,
Additional OPTIONS are passed to the underlying command.
也可以直接在宿主机中使用命令podman exec -it gitlab gitlab-backup create或者podman exec -it gitlab gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create直接备份，不用进入容器中执行。
备份时大概输出情况：

Warning: Your gitlab.rb and gitlab-secrets.json files contain sensitive data
and are not included in this backup. You will need these files to restore a backup.
Please back them up manually.

注意后面的警告，需要手动备份gitlab.rb和gitlab-secrets.json。
备份路径即为前面配置中设定的路径，默认为/var/opt/gitlab/backups。
从备份输出日志可以看到有Dumping uploads，即会备份uploads中的内容，而前面导出项目时，导出的文件就在uploads中，为避免把导出的文件也备份，可以先把导出目录/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/uploads/-/system/import_export_upload/export_file中的文件删除掉，再进行备份。
四、设置自动备份
手动备份还是比较麻烦，可以借助Linux的crontab设置为自动备份，比如可以设置每小时、每天、每月、每年、每周备份。crontab配置可以分为系统级的配置和用户级的配置，任选一种即可。
1.系统级配置
crontab系统级配置，可以查看/etc/crontab：
# /etc/crontab: system-wide crontab
# Unlike any other crontab you don't have to run the `crontab'
# command to install the new version when you edit this file
# and files in /etc/cron.d. These files also have username fields,
# that none of the other crontabs do.
SHELL=/bin/sh
# You can also override PATH, but by default, newer versions inherit it from the environment
#PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
# Example of job definition:
# .---------------- minute (0 - 59)
# | .------------- hour (0 - 23)
# | | .---------- day of month (1 - 31)
# | | | .------- month (1 - 12) OR jan,feb,mar,apr ...
# | | | | .---- day of week (0 - 6) (Sunday=0 or 7) OR sun,mon,tue,wed,thu,fri,sat
# | | | | |
# * * * * * user-name command to be executed
17 * * * * root cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
25 6 * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )
47 6 * * 7 root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly )
52 6 1 * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.monthly )
这个文件分别设置了每小时、每天、每周和每月要执行的任务：
-
/etc/cron.hourly：每小时的17分执行 -
/etc/cron.daily：每天的6点25分执行 -
/etc/cron.weekly：每周周日的6点47分执行 -
/etc/cron.monthly：每月1号的6点52分执行
可以设置Gitlab每天备份，那可以在/etc/cron.daily中添加一个文件gitlab-backup，内容如下：
#!/bin/sh
podman exec -it gitlab gitlab-backup create
如果是宿主机则为：
#!/bin/sh
gitlab-backup create
然后使用chmod +x gitlab-backup命令为其添加上可执行权限。
还有一个目录/etc/cron.d，是自定义计划任务的，格式同/etc/crontab配置。
2.用户级配置
使用crontab -e设置当前用户的计划任务，默认会在/tmp下创建一个文件，笔者的为/tmp/crontab.0kND4I/crontab：
# Edit this file to introduce tasks to be run by cron.
#
# Each task to run has to be defined through a single line
# indicating with different fields when the task will be run
# and what command to run for the task
#
# To define the time you can provide concrete values for
# minute (m), hour (h), day of month (dom), month (mon),
# and day of week (dow) or use '*' in these fields (for 'any').
#
# Notice that tasks will be started based on the cron's system
# daemon's notion of time and timezones.
#
# Output of the crontab jobs (including errors) is sent through
# email to the user the crontab file belongs to (unless redirected).
#
# For example, you can run a backup of all your user accounts
# at 5 a.m every week with:
# 0 5 * * 1 tar -zcf /var/backups/home.tgz /home/
#
# For more information see the manual pages of crontab(5) and cron(8)
#
# m h dom mon dow command
添加如下一行进行测试：
40-50 * * * * echo "测试" >> ~/a.txt
即在每个小时的40~50分钟时，添加“测试”到~/a.txt文件。
查看计划任务crontab -l：
如果是要添加root用户的计划任务，使用sudo crontab -e -u root，查看使用sudo crontab -l -u root。
回到Gitlab备份，非root用户，有sudo权限，则可以使用：
0 2 * * * sudo podman exec -it gitlab gitlab-backup create
每天凌晨2点备份。文章来源：https://www.toymoban.com/news/detail-493133.html
