aws-lambda-mongodb-backup

A NodeJS project that demonstrates how to make a backup file of a MongoDB database and store the file in a S3 bucket. This project is designed to be executed as an AWS Lambda function.

Build

npm install --save

Test

Zip the project and upload it in your AWS Lambda function.

Then, test the Lambda function with a test event using the format shown below:

{
  "mongoIp" : "Primary Replica IP Address",
  "database" : "Database Name",
  "username" : "Username",
  "passowrd" : "Password",
  "bucket" : "S3 Bucket Name"
}

To Do's:

• Simplify the code for cleaning up a backup file
• Handle irregular error from cleaning up a backup file
• Accept more than 1 MongoDB reaplica IP addresses
• Any other error handling logic
