<p>
    <strong>Details</strong>:
    <p>
    This helper can be used both in a system backup hook, and in an app backup script</br></br>Details: ynh_backup writes SRC and the relative DEST into a CSV file. And it</br>creates the parent destination directory</br></br>If DEST is ended by a slash it complete this path with the basename of SRC.</br></br>Example in the context of a wordpress app</br></br>ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf"</br># => This line will be added into CSV file</br># "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf"</br></br>ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "conf/nginx.conf"</br># => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf/nginx.conf"</br></br>ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "conf/"</br># => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf/$app.conf"</br></br>ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "conf"</br># => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf"</br></br>#Deprecated usages (maintained for retro-compatibility)</br>ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "${backup_dir}/conf/nginx.conf"</br># => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf/nginx.conf"</br></br>ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "/conf/"</br># => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf/$app.conf"</br></br>How to use --is_big:</br>--is_big is used to specify that this part of the backup can be quite huge.</br>So, you don't want that your package does backup that part during ynh_backup_before_upgrade.</br>In the same way, an user may doesn't want to backup this big part of the app for</br>  each of his backup. And so handle that part differently.</br></br>As this part of your backup may not be done, your restore script has to handle it.</br>In your restore script, use --not_mandatory with ynh_restore_file</br>As well in your remove script, you should not remove those data ! Or an user may end up with</br>  a failed upgrade restoring an app without data anymore !</br></br>To have the benefit of --is_big while doing a backup, you can whether set the environement</br>  variable BACKUP_CORE_ONLY to 1 (BACKUP_CORE_ONLY=1) before the backup command. It will affect</br>  only that backup command.</br>Or set the config do_not_backup_data to 1 into the settings.yml of the app. This will affect</br>  all backups for this app until the setting is removed.</br></br>Requires YunoHost version 2.4.0 or higher.</br>Requires YunoHost version 3.5.0 or higher for the argument --not_mandatory</br></br>

    example 1: ynh_permission_create --permission=admin --url=/admin --additional_urls=domain.tld/admin /superadmin --allowed=alice bob \</br>                                 --label="My app admin" --show_tile=true</br></br>This example will create a new permission permission with this following effect:</br>- A tile named "My app admin" in the SSO will be available for the users alice and bob. This tile will point to the relative url '/admin'.</br>- Only the user alice and bob will have the access to theses following url: /admin, domain.tld/admin, /superadmin</br></br>example 2: ynh_permission_create --permission=api --url=domain.tld/api --auth_header=false --allowed=visitors \</br>                                 --label="MyApp API" --protected=true</br></br>This example will create a new protected permission. So the admin won't be able to add/remove the visitors group of this permission.</br>In case of an API with need to be always public it avoid that the admin break anything.</br>With this permission all client will be allowed to access to the url 'domain.tld/api'.</br>Note that in this case no tile will be show on the SSO.</br>Note that the auth_header parameter is to 'false'. So no authentication header will be passed to the application.</br>Generally the API is requested by an application and enabling the auth_header has no advantage and could bring some issues in some case.</br>So in this case it's better to disable this option for all API.</br></br>If provided, 'url' or 'additional_urls' is assumed to be relative to the app domain/path if they</br>start with '/'.  For example:</br>   /                             -> domain.tld/app</br>   /admin                        -> domain.tld/app/admin</br>   domain.tld/app/api            -> domain.tld/app/api</br></br>'url' or 'additional_urls' can be treated as a PCRE (not lua) regex if it starts with "re:".</br>For example:</br>   re:/api/[A-Z]*$               -> domain.tld/app/api/[A-Z]*$</br>   re:domain.tld/app/api/[A-Z]*$ -> domain.tld/app/api/[A-Z]*$</br></br>Note that globally the parameter 'url' and 'additional_urls' are same. The only difference is:</br>- 'url' is only one url, 'additional_urls' can be a list of urls. There are no limitation of 'additional_urls'</br>- 'url' is used for the url of tile in the SSO (if enabled with the 'show_tile' parameter)</br></br>About the authentication header (auth_header parameter).</br>The SSO pass (by default) to the application theses following HTTP header (linked to the authenticated user) to the application:</br>       - "Auth-User": username</br>       - "Remote-User": username</br>       - "Email": user email</br></br>Generally this feature is usefull to authenticate automatically the user in the application but in some case the application don't work with theses header and theses header need to be disabled to have the application to work correctly.</br>See https://github.com/YunoHost/issues/issues/1420 for more informations</br></br>Requires YunoHost version 3.7.0 or higher.</br></br>

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------</br></br>The footprint of the service will be used to defined the maximum footprint we can allow, which is half the maximum RAM.</br>So it will be used to defined 'pm.max_children'</br>A lower value for the footprint will allow more children for 'pm.max_children'. And so for</br>   'pm.start_servers', 'pm.min_spare_servers' and 'pm.max_spare_servers' which are defined from the</br>   value of 'pm.max_children'</br>NOTE: 'pm.max_children' can't exceed 4 times the number of processor's cores.</br></br>The usage value will defined the way php will handle the children for the pool.</br>A value set as 'low' will set the process manager to 'ondemand'. Children will start only if the</br>  service is used, otherwise no child will stay alive. This config gives the lower footprint when the</br>  service is idle. But will use more proc since it has to start a child as soon it's used.</br>Set as 'medium', the process manager will be at dynamic. If the service is idle, a number of children</br>  equal to pm.min_spare_servers will stay alive. So the service can be quick to answer to any request.</br>  The number of children can grow if needed. The footprint can stay low if the service is idle, but</br>  not null. The impact on the proc is a little bit less than 'ondemand' as there's always a few</br>  children already available.</br>Set as 'high', the process manager will be set at 'static'. There will be always as many children as</br>  'pm.max_children', the footprint is important (but will be set as maximum a quarter of the maximum</br>  RAM) but the impact on the proc is lower. The service will be quick to answer as there's always many</br>  children ready to answer.</br></br>Requires YunoHost version 2.7.2 or higher.</br>Requires YunoHost version 3.5.1 or higher for the argument --phpversion</br>Requires YunoHost version 3.8.1 or higher for the arguments --use_template, --usage, --footprint, --package and --dedicated_service</br></br>
