BlogEngine.NET Backup Manager

Author: Yoann. B | Posted: 25. December 2008 15:52 34

Hi,

I wrote a simple Backup Manager for BlogEngine.NET in order to perform some entire Weblog Backups.

The Following Backup Manager only support Xml Based DataStore at this moment, but I’ll improve it to support any Datastore providers.

Here is the Steps in order to make this working :

Put the “Admin/BackupManager” Folder to your “Admin” Folder.
Put the “App_Code/BackupManager” Folder to your “App_Code” Folder
Copy the ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll to your “Bin” Folder
Create an Empty “Backups” Folder into “/App_Data”
Then make the Following changes in Web.sitemap and Web.config

Web.Sitemap

<siteMapNode url="~/admin/BackupManager/Default.aspx" title="Backup Manager"  description=""  roles="administrators"/>

Web.Config

<httpHandlers><add verb="*" path="backup.axd" type="BackupManager" validate="false"/></httpHandlers>

Now all should works :)

UPDATED : The Backup Manager now Displays Backup File Size.

Just Replace Default.aspx and Default.aspx.cs into “~/Admin/BackupManager”.

Download It :

BackupManager.rar

Very cool idea. I would love to see it when it is ready for "any data store". Is there any way for the Backup Manager GridView to also show the size of the backup?

Yoann B. , on 12/29/2008 4:31:59 PM Said:

Hi RockinthesixString,

I'll update this post with Backup Size Column.

Thanks for feedback.

Very nice. This is only the raw data and not the iis configuration, correct?

Hi Chris,

Yes, this will Backup all your Blog Web Site from Root folder without packing existing backup obviously.

This looks like very nice software and looks very easy to install. I use blogengine.net on my blog. I am not a programmer, I know some web design. But this is so easy to install that I can do it myself.

Very nice and useful extension. It is always time consuming to have the entire backup whenever there is an upgrade in blog engine or for any other reason. I think from now on, it saves time and can have frequent backups safer side.. thanks for a good extension Yoann..
