Docker image to back up MongoDB database and upload to S3

To run the image locally, first build it

docker build -t mongodumper .

Then run it with the following environment variables:

docker run -e MONGO_URI="mongo://localhost:27017/some-db" \
    -e S3BUCKET_PATH="bucket_name/path" \
    -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="XXX" \
    -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="XXX" \
    -e AWS_DEFAULT_REGION="ap-south-1"  \
    mongodumper

To build and publish the image to ECR, use the following commands

ECR_REPO="repo-name" ECR_REGION="region" ./ecr-publish.sh

You can optionally pass the tag as the first argument to the script, otherwise it will use the latest tag

ECR_REPO="repo-name" ECR_REGION="region" ./ecr-publish.sh 1.0.0

.ecr-publish.sh builds the image and uses the aws cli to publish the image to ECR. Make sure you have the aws cli installed and configured with the correct credentials. You can also use the AWS_PROFILE environment variable to specify the profile to use.
