Helm chart: paperless-ngx backup

Kubernetes Helm chart to create a cronjob to backup the paperless-ngx instance to a remote FTP server.

The script will use the document exporter to create a backup of your paperless-ngx instance. If you want the backup also can be gpg encrypted prior to upload the zipped backup to the FTP server.

Configuration

The configuration of the backup cronjob will be set in the values.yaml-file. Everything is pretty straight forward and should be self-explanatory. If you think more information should be provided or need help, feel free to open an issue.

Installation

To deploy the Helm chart first copy the values.yaml-file and customize your deployment. After it was modified you can deploy the chart with the following command.

$ helm repo add taskmedia https://helm.task.media
$ helm repo update

$ helm show values taskmedia/paperlessngx-backup > ./my-values.yaml
$ vi ./my-values.yaml

$ helm upgrade --install paperlessngx-backup taskmedia/paperlessngx-backup --values ./my-values.yaml

You can also use OCI Helm charts from ghcr.io:

$ helm upgrade --install paperlessngx-backup oci://ghcr.io/taskmedia/paperlessngx-backup
