#!/usr/bin/perl

$now = time;
$directory = "/home/user/backups";

# these are the databases I back up
@databases = ("mysql", "accounts", "data");

foreach $database (@databases) {
$backup = "mysqldump \-\-add-drop-table -u user -ppass $database";
$zip = "| gzip > $directory/$database.$now.gz";
system("$backup $zip");

# This stays commented, because I don't want to restore to the test
# databases all the time.
# unless($database eq "mysql") {
# $restore = "|mysql -u user -ppass test_$database";
# system("$backup $restore");
# }
}


# This allows me to keep 7 copies of the backups at all times.
# They also get backed up to tape, but this is more convenient for me.
opendir BACKUPS, $directory;
foreach $file (readdir BACKUPS) {
if(-M "$directory/$file" > 6) {
unlink "$directory/$file";
}
