With it, you can define the parameters to create regular copies of your site, including the frequency and time of the operation. Once you have configured the parameters, the plugin will automatically run in the background to create backups of your site and its database according to your schedule. Backups are stored directly on your Nextcloud account, allowing you to access them from anywhere, at any time. This plugin is easy to install and configure, and it offers a complete backup solution to protect your site from data loss in the event of a technical problem or hacking. By choosing this plugin, you can have peace of mind knowing that your site is safe. WARNING: Automatic restoration of backups is not yet possible. It must be done manually by replacing the files on the hosting and restoring the database(DB). **New in version 1.0.7:** – Comprehensive logging system accessible via HejBit Decentralised Backup > Logs submenu to monitor all backup operations – Test NextCloud Connection button to verify your setup before running backups ### Required Third-Party Services * Nextcloud: A cloud storage platform. * HejBit: A decentralization service that connects your Nextcloud folder to Swarm decentralized storage. To use this plugin, you need: 1. An active Nextcloud instance 2. A HejBit account( sign up at [app.hejbit.com](https://app.hejbit.com)) ### Need Help with Nextcloud Setup?

My details: – Website URL: [Your WordPress site URL] – Expected backup size: [Approximate size of your site] – Preferred backup frequency: [Daily/Weekly/Monthly] – Technical experience level: [Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced] Additional comments or questions: [Any specific requirements or questions you have] Look forward to hear back from you. Best regards, [Your Name] [Your Contact Information] ### Server Configuration for Large Backups To ensure successful backup uploads for websites of all sizes, especially large sites, you need adjust your server’s PHP, Nginx, and Nextcloud configuration as follows: **1. PHP configuration (`php.ini`):** Consider increasing limits related to file size and execution time. Here’s an example configuration that allowed large uploads to complete successfully: – memory_limit = 5G – post_max_size = 5G – upload_max_filesize = 5G – max_execution_time = 7200 – max_input_time = 7200 (Use values appropriate for your environment) **2. Nginx configuration:** Nginx uses the client_max_body_size directive to control the maximum allowed size of an upload. For example, to support uploads of several gigabytes, you might include a line like this in your nginx.conf (inside the http, server, or location block): – client_max_body_size = 5G; (Adjust the size limit to match your PHP and Nextcloud settings.) **3. Nextcloud configuration (config.php):** You may also want to review Nextcloud’s upload-related settings. Here’s an example: – ›uploadtimeout‹ => 7200, // maximum time (in seconds) allowed for uploads – ›max_chunk_size‹ => 10485760, // chunk size( in bytes); 10MB is a good balance (These are reference values — feel free to adjust them as needed.) Note: These settings are essential for handling large backup files and preventing timeouts or upload failures. If you are on shared hosting, you may need to contact your hosting provider to increase these limits. #### Process Duration Several steps are required, and each step depends on the maximum memory allocated by your hosting. As a result, the process may take a long time (e.g., a few hours for a 10GB site with 64MB of memory). #### Backup File Limit Currently, the maximum limit for saving the backup ZIP file in Swarm is around 1GB. #### Backup Process 1. DB extraction 2. Zip of the wp-content folder 3. Addition of the .htaccess, wp-config and DB files to the Zip 4. Sending the zip following the Chunck method on the Nextcloud space 5. Reassembling the chunks and moving them to the final Nextcloud folder 6. Cleaning of residual files on the hosting and deletion of obsolete backups on Nextcloud #### API Two access points are available: * /wp-json/HDB/saves to retrieve the number of active backups and their name, as well as the next backup * /wp-json/HDB/param to retrieve the backup frequency, the day, the time and the number to keep #### Uninstalling the Plugin * Disable the plugin: delete the schedules * Delete the plugin : remove tables and options ### Data Handling * This plugin sends backup files (database and files) from your WordPress installation to your Nextcloud instance. * The backup data is then stored on Swarm decentralized storage via the HejBit integration. * No user tracking or personal data collection occurs. ### Privacy & Terms * [HejBit Privacy Policy](https://app.hejbit.com/legal/privacy-policy) * [HejBit Terms of Service](https://app.hejbit.com/legal/terms-of-service) * Nextcloud is self-hosted by you or by other provider, so please refer to your instance’s policies. A free 14-day trial of HejBit is available for new users. ### Links * [HejBit App](https://app.hejbit.com/) ### Acknowledgements This plugin would not have been possible without the solid foundation laid by Dave Delalleau. His work on the Save to Nextcloud plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/ stn-save-to-Nextcloud/#developers) has been instrumental in shaping this project. We deeply appreciate his contributions and effort in making website backups more accessible and reliable. Thank you, Dave, for your dedication and hard work! We would also like to acknowledge the Nextcloud community for their continued efforts in building a robust, open-source platform for file storage and collaboration. Their commitment to privacy, security, and decentralization has made it possible for projects like this to thrive. The flexibility and reliability of Nextcloud ensure that users have full control over their data, making it an ideal solution for secure backups. ### Known Bugs Feature:»Make a Backup Now» Button Doesn’t Work Description: Clicking «Make a Backup Now» causes the fields to go empty, and the backup does not work.
