| NOTE: These endpoints - /fcr:backup and /fcr:restore - will be moving to an extension module in a future release of Fedora. |
|---|
Request URI: /rest/fcr:backup Methods: POST
|
You may include a backup directory in the body of the POST request. If you do not specify a directory, the backup will be stored in a temporary directory on the server (which will be returned in the response body). As yet, there is not a REST API method for retrieving the content of the backup. |
Example:
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/rest/fcr:backup" |
Response:
Status: 200 OK Body: /tmp/fcrepo4-data/path/to/backup/directory |
Example 2: Including a destination directory
curl -X POST -d /path/to/backup/destination "http://localhost:8080/rest/fcr:backup" |
Response:
Status: 200 OK |
Status:
OK
Request URI: /rest/fcr:restore
Methods: POST
Note: Restoring a backup replaces the repository content with the contents of the backup, so any data in the repository will be lost. |
Example:
curl -X POST -d "/tmp/fcrepo4-data/path/to/backup/directory" "http://localhost:8080/rest/fcr:restore" |
Response:
Status: 204 No Content |
Status:
Backup restored
