Edo alpha
And voila, after weeks of postponing I took the bull by the horns and made the tests and changes needed for Edo to work properly. Early in the week I moved back the code to use curl as I was having trouble with open() but it turned out today that the problem was me not reading the doc. So it is now fixed and it is now working.
You can check the code at Github with the 0.1 tag/version out. The code is still under MIT, still using Thor. I’m open to critics, bug reports and pull requests.
What can Edo do ?
As said in the previous related post Edo is a simple script to backup your Heroku db locally and in a AWS S3 account. You can then harness this script into a cron. This script is thought to be used on a dedicated server or your desktop, it needs some space locally to work and store backups.
Plans
Plans for the future are blurry at the moment, this solution is enough for me but indeed I wouldn’t mind having something a bit nicer like a simple Sinatra based web interface to trigger backups by hand or check what’s happening.
