Monsoon Gem

Monsoon is a MongoDB backup tool that allows you to take backups and store them in Amazon S3.

Usage

To install:

gem install monsoon

To Configure:

Monsoon.configure do |config|
  config.bucket = "mongo_backups"
  config.key = "my_super_secret_aws_key"
  config.secret = "my_super_secret_aws_secret"
  config.mongo_uri = "mongodb://user:password@test.mongohq.com:10036/app_development"

Requirements

mongodump must be installed on the system and available from anywhere on in the console.

The gem also utilizes tar to compress the back so this, too, must be accessible form the command line.
