MongoDB backups

The mongo strategy runs:

docker exec <c> sh -c 'mongodump --archive --gzip --authenticationDatabase admin -u "$MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME" -p "$MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD"'

Credentials are read from the container env. Restore uses mongorestore --drop so it overwrites existing collections. Override via opts.Credentials["MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME"] / ["MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD"].

Filename format: {containerName}-{YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS}.archive.gz.

Configure via compose labels

services:
  db:
    image: mongo:7
    environment:
      MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME: root
      MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD: secret
