This package provides Artisan commands to quickly dump and load databases in a Laravel application.
# Create a dump
php artisan snapshot:create my-first-dump
# Make some changes to your db
# ...
# Create another dump
php artisan snapshot:create my-second-dump
# Load up the first dump
php artisan snapshot:load my-first-dump
# Load up the latest dump
php artisan snapshot:load --latest
# List all snapshots
php artisan snapshot:list
# Remove old snapshots. Keeping only the most recent
php artisan snapshot:cleanup --keep=2

Installation
This package requires PHP 8.3 or higher and Laravel 12 or 13.
For PHP 7.x and/or Laravel 6.x, use v1.x of this package.
You can install the package via Composer:
composer require spatie/laravel-db-snapshots
You should add a disk named snapshots to config/filesystems.php on which the snapshots will be saved. This would be a typical configuration:
// ...
'disks' => [
// ...
'snapshots' => [
'driver' => 'local',
'root' => database_path('snapshots'),
],
// ...
Optionally, you may publish the configuration file with:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\DbSnapshots\DbSnapshotsServiceProvider"
This is the content of the published file:
return [
/*
* The name of the disk on which the snapshots are stored.
*/
'disk' => 'snapshots',
/*
* The connection to be used to create snapshots. Set this to null
* to use the default configured in `config/databases.php`
*/
'default_connection' => null,
/*
* The directory where temporary files will be stored.
*/
'temporary_directory_path' => storage_path('app/laravel-db-snapshots/temp'),
/*
* Create dump files that are gzipped
*/
'compress' => false,
/*
* Only these tables will be included in the snapshot. Set to `null` to include all tables.
*
* Default: `null`
*/
'tables' => null,
/*
* All tables will be included in the snapshot expect this tables. Set to `null` to include all tables.
*
* Default: `null`
*/
'exclude' => null,
];
Usage
To create a snapshot (which is just a dump from the database) run:
php artisan snapshot:create my-first-dump
Giving your snapshot a name is optional. If you don’t pass a name the current date time will be used:
# Creates a snapshot named something like `2017-03-17 14:31`
php artisan snapshot:create
If you pass a connection but do not declare a name for the snapshot, the connection will be prepended
# Creates a snapshot named something like `logging_2017-03-17 14:31`
php artisan snapshot:create --connection=logging
Maybe you only want to snapshot a couple of tables. You can do this by passing the --table multiple times or as a comma separated list:
# Both commands create a snapshot containing only the posts and users tables:
php artisan snapshot:create --table=posts,users
php artisan snapshot:create --table=posts --table=users
You may want to exclude some tables from snapshot. You can do this by passing the --exclude multiple times or as a comma separated list:
# create snapshot from all tables excluding the users and posts
php artisan snapshot:create --exclude=posts,users
php artisan snapshot:create --exclude=posts --exclude=users
Note: if you pass --table and --exclude in the same time it will use --table to create the snapshot and it’s ignore the --exclude
When creating snapshots, you can optionally create compressed snapshots. To do this either pass the --compress option on the command line, or set the db-snapshots.compress configuration option to true:
# Creates a snapshot named my-compressed-dump.sql.gz
php artisan snapshot:create my-compressed-dump --compress
After you’ve made some changes to the database you can create another snapshot:
php artisan snapshot:create my-second-dump
To load a previous dump issue this command:
php artisan snapshot:load my-first-dump
To load a previous dump to another DB connection:
php artisan snapshot:load my-first-dump --connection=connectionName
By default, snapshot:load will drop all existing tables in the database. If you don’t want this behaviour, you can pass the --drop-tables=0 option:
php artisan snapshot:load my-first-dump --drop-tables=0
By default, snapshot:load will load the entire snapshot into memory which may cause problems when using large files. To avoid this, you can pass the --stream option to stream the snapshot to the database one statement at a time:
php artisan snapshot:load my-first-dump --stream
A final SQL statement does not need a trailing semicolon. If a streamed snapshot ends inside an unterminated string literal, the load throws a Spatie\DbSnapshots\Exceptions\CannotLoadSnapshot exception instead of skipping the rest of the file. Statements already loaded are not rolled back.
To list all the dumps run:
php artisan snapshot:list
A dump can be deleted with:
php artisan snapshot:delete my-first-dump
To remove all backups except the most recent 2
php artisan snapshot:cleanup --keep=2
If you need to pass extra options to the underlying db-dumper, add a dump key to the database connection with a key of addExtraOption and a value of the option. For example, to prevent the Postgres db dumper from setting the owner, you’d add:
'dump' => [
'addExtraOption' => '--no-owner',
],
To the pgsql connection in database.php
Events
There are several events fired which can be used to perform some logic of your own:
Spatie\DbSnapshots\Events\CreatingSnapshot: will be fired before a snapshot is createdSpatie\DbSnapshots\Events\CreatedSnapshot: will be fired after a snapshot has been createdSpatie\DbSnapshots\Events\LoadingSnapshot: will be fired before a snapshot is loadedSpatie\DbSnapshots\Events\LoadedSnapshot: will be fired after a snapshot has been loadedSpatie\DbSnapshots\Events\DeletingSnapshot: will be fired before a snapshot is deletedSpatie\DbSnapshots\Events\DeletedSnapshot: will be fired after a snapshot has been deleted
