title: "Disaster Recovery"
description: "Back up and restore OpenCodeHub data safely."

This guide outlines a conservative recovery strategy that works across storage backends.

1) Back up the database

Use your database’s native backup tooling to snapshot the OpenCodeHub database. Examples:

  • PostgreSQL: pg_dump
  • MySQL: mysqldump

2) Back up Git data and storage

Back up the directories used by your instance:

  • GIT_REPOS_PATH (default ./data/repositories)
  • STORAGE_PATH (default ./data/storage)

If you use S3/R2/MinIO, snapshot the bucket or enable versioning.

3) Restore

  1. Restore the database backup.
  2. Restore repository and storage data to the configured paths.
  3. Run migrations to match the code version:
npm run db:migrate

4) Validate

  • Open the UI and check a repository.
  • Confirm that PRs, issues, and CI history load.
  • Perform a test clone to verify Git data integrity.

5) Automate

Use a scheduled backup job and store snapshots off‑site.
