Backup and Migrate for Drupal 8 and 9

This is a rewrite of Backup and Migrate for Drupal 8 and 9.

Installation

Install without composer

• Download the zip or tgz archive of the latest release from the project page: https://www.drupal.org/project/backup_migrate
• Extra the archive and rename it so that there is just a directory called backup_migrate.
• Move the directory to the site's modules/contrib directory.

Install using composer

composer require drupal/backup_migrate

Optional: php-encryption

In order to encrypt backup files, please install the Defuse PHP-encryption library via Composer with the command:

composer require defuse/php-encryption

See the Defuse PHP Encryption Documentation Page for more information:

• https://www.drupal.org/docs/contributed-modules/backup-and-migrate/encrypting-backups

The following modules can extend the functionality of your backup solution:

• Backup & Migrate: Flysystem https://www.drupal.org/project/backup_migrate_flysystem Provides a wrapper around the Flysystem abstraction system which allows use of a wide variety of backup destinations without additional changes to the B&M module itself. Please see that module's README.md file for details.
