New MySQL backup

2010-12-03 (80) by Ton Kersten, tagged as mysqlbackup

I was playing around and configuring the MySQL backup on a customers database server and I ran into little problems. One of the defaults was not parsed correctly and a configuration setting made things run amok.

So I decided to streamline things and create some extra program options to set and show the default settings and the settings after the configuration file.

The help now shows:

mysqlbackup version 1.50
Syntax: mysqlbackup [ -h|-v|-s|-c|-d|]
    -h           Display this help and exit
    -v           Display the version number and exit
    -s           Show the defaults and their values
    -d           Show a description of the defaults and their values
    -c           Show a default configuration file
    -a           Show settings after the config file is processed
    configfile   Use this file as the configuration file
                 instead of the default.
                 Default: /usr/local/bin/mysqlbackup.conf

Come and g[ei]t it. It's in the download section or on GitHub.
