Backup option in dgo client

Moved from GitHub dgo/124

Posted by praneelrathore:

Will there be a backup option available in dgo client in coming releases. This issue Backup and restore options in the Community Edition · Issue #4900 · dgraph-io/dgraph · GitHub was created sometime ago and it has been accepted. It will be convenient if we can have this api/client for backing up as well. Also, currently what is the recommended way to create backups for the data, for community edition?

parasssh commented :

This is a reasonable ask. However, note that you will still need to have Enterprise Edition license for backup/restore feature.

The issue Backup and restore options in the Community Edition · Issue #4900 · dgraph-io/dgraph · GitHub is about making backup/restore available in Community Edition.

Thanks @parasssh. I agree for doing backup/restore I would still need the license for enterprise edition. However, for community edition, as mentioned in the issue, it was suggested to use export/import. Can that be also included in dgo, as otherwise I will have to run the GraphQL query on the alpha container itself which is not a good practice for production.

Please open another GitHub issue for it.
