### backupninja PostgreSQL config file ###
# backupdir = <dir> (default: /var/backups/postgres)
# where to dump the backups
# databases = < all | db1 db2 db3 > (default = all)
# which databases to backup. should either be the word 'all' or a
# space separated list of database names.
# Note: when using 'all', pg_dumpall is used instead of pg_dump, which means
# that cluster-wide data (such as users and groups) are saved.
# compress = < yes | no > (default = yes)
# if yes, compress the pg_dump/pg_dumpall output.
# format = < plain | tar | custom > (default = plain)
# plain - Output a plain-text SQL script file with the extension .sql.
# When dumping all databases, a single file is created via pg_dumpall.
# tar - Output a tar archive suitable for input into pg_restore. More
# flexible than plain and can be manipulated by standard Unix tools
# such as tar. Creates a globals.sql file and an archive per database.
# custom - Output a custom PostgreSQL pg_restore archive. This is the most
# flexible format allowing selective import and reordering of database
# objects at the time the database is restored via pg_restore. This
# option creates a globals.sql file containing the cluster role and
# other information dumped by pg_dumpall -g and a pg_restore file
# per selected database. See the pg_dump and pg_restore man pages.
### You can also set the following variables in /etc/backupninja.conf:
# PGSQLDUMP: pg_dump path (default: /usr/bin/pg_dump)
# PGSQLDUMPALL: pg_dumpall path (default: /usr/bin/pg_dumpall)
# PGSQLUSER: user running PostgreSQL (default: postgres)
