as promised here are the scripts. of course they come with a caveat, i am no powershell wiz, I have been teaching myself PS using this as a learning exercise.
there are quite a few files here so I will add a few notes to tell you what they do if you want to debug these scripts download powergui (powergui.org) - oss, it can debug scripts. most of these scripts have a simple good-repository, bad-repository test case to validate the main code-paths. all of thoes 'start' scripts : these scripts is launchable from the 'dos' command shell. You cant directly launch powersell 'functions' from dos, you need to call them from other ps1 scripts, and for some reason you cant have a function and a 'dos entry point' in the same ps1 file. all of thoes 'do' scripts : these preform the dump, zip the dump, and copy the dump to the location specified in the configuration file. SubversionConfiguration.xml : all configuration options are read from here, the 'start' and 'do' scripts need know the path to this file daily_backup_reposiory.cmd : invoked form windows, all it does is start powershell passing it the 'start' script start_daily_backup_repository.ps1 : loads the 'SubversionParentPath' option and executes the do_daily_backup_repository function on each repository. do_daily_backup_repository.ps1 : does the daily backup, this consists of dumping all changes that occured between now and the last time it was executed (it maintains a 'repository-name.head' file to let it know the last revision that was a part of a daily backup) weekly_backup_repository, this set of scripts is mostly the same as the dailys, except the 'do' script dumps the entire repository. post_commit_backup_revision : again makes the powershell script launchable from dos start_post_commit_backup_revision : no reason for this one, I just forgot to remove it. do_post_commit_backup_revision : drops the revision from the repository passed into it into a dump file minor note : your repository post-commit-hook will need to look like this --- SET REPOS=%1 SET REV=%2 SET REPOS-NAME=repository call D:\MEDIA\PROFILE\Desktop\SubversionScripts\post_commit_backup_revision.cmd "REPOS", "REV", REPOS-NAME --- the reason for this is that at the time this particular code was written I needed to pass in 'REPOS-NAME' in order to get the actual repository name, anyhow there is a far better way to do this (use the .Name property of the object) but i never got around to changing the code. anyhow these scripts are by no means perfect - however they do work, when i have more time they will be polished further and sent to the subversion guys for inclustion into the 'contrib' if you have any questions about these scripts let me know. [edit] : ok, gmail doesnt allow .cmd files to be sent (of course), here is the content of thoes files : daily_backup_repository.cmd :: sets up the approprate enviroment to call the powershell scripts from a command prompt C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe D:\MEDIA\PROFILE\Desktop\SubversionScripts\start_daily_backup_repository.ps1 exit post_commit_backup_revision.cmd :: sets up the approprate enviroment to call the powershell scripts from a command prompt SET REPOS=%1 SET REV=%2 SET REPOS-NAME=%3 C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe D:\MEDIA\PROFILE\Desktop\SubversionScripts\start_post_commit_backup_revision.ps1 -svn_repos %REPOS% -rev %REV% -repos_name %REPOS-NAME% exit weekly_backup_revision.cmd :: sets up the approprate enviroment to call the powershell scripts from a command prompt C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe D:\MEDIA\PROFILE\Desktop\SubversionScriptsstart_weekly_backup_repository.ps1 exit On Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 3:25 PM, steven higgan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > hmmm yes backup scripts. > > I have a set of powershell scripts that do nightly (stuff that changed > today), weekly (whole repository) and per-revision backup, compress, local > and remote archiving. > > they were written for my employer (I have permission to distribute them) > they do need to be 'cleaned' before I can send them to the list (which I > will do tonight when I get home from work). > > if you don't hear form me by Friday ping me offlist (i tend to be > forgetful) > > > On Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 6:22 AM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> >> What is the easist method of backup from the viepoint of a >> administrator? >> How can one automate this? >> Is it enough if the repositories are copied? >> >> Sorry if this has been answered before ;-) Please then point me in the >> right direction. >> > >
