Schedule inside Kubernetes Cluster

Create Kubernetes secret containing all the environment variables:

kubectl create secret generic postgres-backup-azure \
 --from-literal=POSTGRES_HOST=<db host> \
 --from-literal=POSTGRES_DATABASE=<your db name> \
 --from-literal=POSTGRES_USER=<your pg username> \
 --from-literal=POSTGRES_PASSWORD=<your secret> \
 --from-literal=AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT=<your azure storage account name> \
 --from-literal=AZURE_CONTAINER_NAME=<existing container name> \
 --from-literal=AZURE_STORAGE_KEY=<azure storage key>

then create CronJob using the cronjob spec file from this repo:

kubectl apply -f postgres-backup-azure.cronjob.yaml

By default, it will run every day at 00:00. To change this, edit cronjob and specify other schedule:

kubectl edit cronjob postgres-backup-azure
