cPanel remote backup script (works with new versions)

1

Hello,

Yesterday I rewrote a part of my cPanel backup script which wasn’t working due to removal of old and depreciated cPanel api in newer version (74 to be specific).

I have some resellers with a total of dozen accunts, I guess? I can’t move them to dedi due to some reasons. So, just sharing a part of it.

Features:

  • Creates array of failed and success ones
  • Notifies user through emailing (sendgrid)
  • Works with multiple servers

TBH, it’s a lazy day and I don’t have much to do! Let me know if you have any other recommendation.

Thanks

Haven’t got the chance to test it yet, but I have one question. Does it also backup MySQL databases?

Well it’s full cpanel backup so yeah.

The FTP connect that creates the backup folder doesn’t use the custom port.

File : run.php
Line : 33
$ftpConnection = ftp_connect($ftpHost); to
$ftpConnection = ftp_connect($ftpHost, $ftpPort);
