Features

This repository contains two Bash scripts: backup.sh and deploy.sh. These scripts are designed to automate the backup and deployment processes for your projects.

• The backup.sh script performs a backup of files from a source directory to a backup directory, creating a timestamped subdirectory for each backup.
• The deploy.sh script simulates a basic deployment process for a web application. It assumes you have a project directory containing your web application files and you want to deploy them to a server.

Backup Script (backup.sh)

The backup.sh script performs a backup of files from a source directory to a backup directory, creating a timestamped subdirectory for each backup.

Installation

1. Make the script executable:

chmod +x backup.sh

2. Edit the script to set the source and backup directory paths:

SOURCE_DIR="/path/to/source"
BACKUP_DIR="/path/to/backup"

Usage

./backup.sh

Features

Creates a timestamped subdirectory in the backup directory for each backup. Copies files recursively from the source directory to the backup subdirectory.

Notes

• The script uses the cp command to copy files. Adjust it to suit your needs.
• This script is a basic example and can be expanded to include more advanced features.

Deployment Script (deploy.sh)

The deploy.sh script simulates a basic deployment process for a web application. It assumes you have a project directory containing your web application files and you want to deploy them to a server.

Installation

1. Make the script executable:

chmod +x deploy.sh

2. Edit the script to set the project directory and server details:

PROJECT_DIR="/path/to/your/project"
REMOTE_SERVER="user@your-server.com"
REMOTE_DIR="/path/on/remote/server"

Usage

./deploy.sh

Features

• Simulates a deployment process by copying files to a remote server.
• Includes customizable variables for project and server details.

Notes

• Adjust the script to match your actual deployment process, including build steps and server restarts.
• This script is a basic example and can be extended to accommodate your specific deployment needs.
