Consistent usage of the words related to BorgBackup (Borg)
In order to avoid confusions between the name of the program itself (BorgBackup and Borg in short) and the backups managed by BorgBackup, the official full name should be preferred where possible, minding capitalization.

- Borg or borg → BorgBackup
- Borg backup(s) → BorgBackup (if it means the program) / backups with BorgBackup (if it means the backups managed by the program)

Based on https://www.borgbackup.org/

# Setting up postgres backup (optional)
The playbook can install and configure [docker-postgres-backup-local](https://github.com/prodrigestivill/docker-postgres-backup-local) for you via the [ansible-role-postgres-backup](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-postgres-backup) Ansible role.
For a more complete backup solution (one that includes not only Postgres, but also other configuration/data files), you may wish to look into [BorgBackup](configuring-playbook-backup-borg.md) instead.
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
To enable Postgres backup, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
```yaml
postgres_backup_enabled: true
```
Refer to the table below for additional configuration variables and their default values.
| Name | Default value | Description |
| :-------------------------------- | :--------------------------- | :--------------------------------------------------------------- |
|`postgres_backup_enabled`|`false`|Set to true to use [docker-postgres-backup-local](https://github.com/prodrigestivill/docker-postgres-backup-local) to create automatic database backups|
|`postgres_backup_schedule`| `'@daily'` |Cron-schedule specifying the interval between postgres backups.|
|`postgres_backup_keep_days`|`7`|Number of daily backups to keep|
|`postgres_backup_keep_weeks`|`4`|Number of weekly backups to keep|
|`postgres_backup_keep_months`|`12`|Number of monthly backups to keep|
|`postgres_backup_base_path` | `"{{ matrix_base_data_path }}/postgres-backup"` | Base path for postgres-backup. Also see `postgres_backup_data_path` |
|`postgres_backup_data_path` | `"{{ postgres_backup_base_path }}/data"` | Storage path for postgres-backup database backups |
## Installing
After configuring the playbook, run the [installation](installing.md) command:
```
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,start
```
