## Prerequisites
## Prerequisites and Assumptions
You must have a working DB server or container available for this to work properly, it does not provide server functionality!
## Installation
Automated builds of the image are available on [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/tiredofit/db-backup) and is the recommended
method of installation.
### Build from Source
Clone this repository and build the image with `docker build -t (imagename) .`
### Prebuilt Images
Builds of the image are available on [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/tiredofit/backuppc) and is the recommended method of installation.
```bash
docker pull tiredofit/db-backup:latest
docker pull tiredofit/backuppc:(imagetag)
```
The following image tags are available along with their taged release based on what's written in the [Changelog](CHANGELOG.md):
| Container OS | Tag |
| ------------ | --------- |
| Alpine | `:latest` |
## Configuration
### Quick Start
* The quickest way to get started is using [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/). See the examples folder for a working [docker-compose.yml](examples/docker-compose.yml) that can be modified for development or production use.

### Environment Variables
Along with the Environment Variables from the [Base image](https://hub.docker.com/r/tiredofit/alpine), below is the complete list of available options that can be used to customize your installation.
#### Base Images used
This image relies on an [Alpine Linux](https://hub.docker.com/r/tiredofit/alpine) base image that relies on an [init system](https://github.com/just-containers/s6-overlay) for added capabilities. Outgoing SMTP capabilities are handlded via `msmtp`. Individual container performance monitoring is performed by [zabbix-agent](https://zabbix.org). Additional tools include: `bash`,`curl`,`less`,`logrotate`, `nano`,`vim`.
Be sure to view the following repositories to understand all the customizable options:
