To: Texas Python User Group <texas at python.org>


It occurred to me that people preparing sessions for PyTexas might be
interested in perhaps turning one of those sessions into a Python article
for Linux Journal.  Here's the link:

http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/call-articles

Here's the actual text:

Linux Journal is gearing up for our Python issue, and we'd love to get
articles from YOU! If you have any Python-related projects, tactics,
lessons or other articles ideas, send a proposal to jill at linuxjournal.com.
We're excited about the Python issue, and we're excited for you to help us
make it awesome! (NOTE: any photos of geeks flexing their "pythons" for us
will be deleted immediately--or possibly posted online for everyone to see.
Please, no one wants to see that!)

Subject: [PyAR2] cron job to backup sqlite database?
Message-ID: <CAG_b13eiw-0x2a7LCB+-Ey58tGgDZGkD+VPhh1_gkL4X7GFhpw@mail.gmail.com>

All,

I need to create a cron job on the webserver to backup the sqlite db behind
http://www.pyarkansas.org. I'm a noob to sqlite, so should I actually dump
the db to a backup or just copy is somehow? I'm thinking with copying it
can't be being accessed during the copy or it could be corrupted.

Anyone done this before, gotta be simple, huh?

Thanks

chad

BTW, if you haven't checked out the conference
site<http://www.pyarkansas.org/>yet, please do - we've come a long way
this year. And have you submitted
your talk proposals <http://www.pyarkansas.org/speaking/cfp/> yet?

A SQLite db is just a file, so a plain cp should be just fine. There 
*might* be an issue with a write happening during read, but my guess is 
that any issues should be extremely rare. If we want to be paranoid about 
it we could always do two backups a minute apart - then checksum the db's 
against eachother and the main db. If they all match, great. If the 
backups don't match each other, but one of them matches the master, then I 
*think* we could just assume that the stars aligned and we read at the 
exact same time a write happened.

Although a quick DuckDuckGo search yielded this: 
http://www.sqlite.org/backup.html

And possibly this: 
http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Database/Database-APIs/python-sqlite3-backup-83306.shtml

(Also, apparently I didn't send this off this morning like I thought!)

Here it is mechanically converted to favicon.ico.  I have no design skills.  Might be better without the text?



Here's the shell script I usually use for this task.

Thanks Rob, yeah, I'll remove the text and the outline thickness needs
tweaked. Thanks, cool script. I'll use that.
