Data Backup and Migration Management

r-nacos utilizes a custom distributed file storage system, which is not very user-friendly for data management by default.

To enhance user experience in managing and utilizing data within r-nacos, we plan to introduce language-independent intermediate data files as data carriers. This will facilitate bidirectional migration between r-nacos system data and general database data.

1. Data Backup

1.1 Manual Data Backup

Administrators can manually perform data backups by selecting Export Data on the Console > Data Migration Page.

1.2 Automatic Data Backup

1. Enable the data backup interface by configuring the RNACOS_BACKUP_TOKEN parameter. By default, the backup data token is empty, meaning the feature is disabled.

2. Data Backup HTTP Interface Details

Interface Path

GET /rnacos/backup

Parameters:

token: Access token, which must match the `RNACOS_BACKUP_TOKEN` configured in r-nacos.

Example Call:

curl -o backup.data 'http://127.0.0.1:8848/rnacos/backup?token=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx'

3. Schedule regular data backups by setting up cron jobs to call the backup interface.

Configure according to your specific needs, details omitted.

2. Data Recovery

Data recovery is an infrequent operation and must be performed manually by administrators via the console.

Administrators can manually restore data by selecting Import Data on the Console > Data Migration Page.
