Quick backup script.

s2532743 requested to merge backup into master

I added a quick backup script, which backs up the following:

  • All postgres tables
  • The SSL certificate
  • The environment variables

There are a lot of reasons that this script is not optimal:

  • It relies on a bunch of external variables to be exactly right. (like the db user)
  • It assumes the directory structure although it could change.
  • It doesn't lock anything, meaning that writes could mess it up.
  • It doesn't encrypt the backup yet (although I'm not sure that this script is responsible for this)
  • It doesn't log anything
  • I'm not sure whether we back up the right files. An argument could be made that we need to backup the entire docker containers. This depends on how we update however.
