# What to backup
|
||
|
|
|

Vikunja does not store any data outside of the database.
|
||
|
|
So, all you need to backup are the contents of that database and maybe the config file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## MySQL
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To create a backup from mysql use the `mysqldump` command:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||
|
|
mysqldump -u <user> -p -h <db-host> <database> > vkunja-backup.sql
|
||
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You will be prompted for the password of the mysql user.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To restore it, simply pipe it back into the `mysql` command:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||
|
|
mysql -u <user> -p -h <db-host> <database> < vkunja-backup.sql
|
||
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## SQLite

To backup sqllite databases, it is enough to copy the database elsewhere.
