# Backup and Restore Commands | ||
|
||
This document describes how the backup and restore commands will work and how the feature will be rolled out. | ||
The proposal is to create the feature as a minimum viable product and follow that up with non breaking features to the commands. | ||
The initial implementation will be the easiest implementation that is useful. | ||
|
||
## Minium Viable Product | ||
|
||
The backup command will initially just support writing to a directory and the restore command will only support reading from a directory. | ||
|
||
### oras backup | ||
|
||
The backup command will initially only support reading a list of files from the command line and writing to a directory: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
oras backup --output ./mirror registry.k8s.io/kube-apiserver-arm64:v1.31.0 registry.k8s.io/kube-controller-manager-arm64:v1.31.0 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The generated directory structure is `<specified-directory>/<repository>/<tag>`. | ||
The command above puts the OCI layout for the Kubernetes API server in `mirror/kube-api-server-arm64/v1.31.0`. | ||
The directory structure with intermediate blobs removed: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
$ find mirror | ||
mirror | ||
mirror/kube-apiserver-arm64 | ||
mirror/kube-apiserver-arm64/v1.31.0 | ||
mirror/kube-apiserver-arm64/v1.31.0/ingest | ||
mirror/kube-apiserver-arm64/v1.31.0/oci-layout | ||

mirror/kube-controller-manager-arm64/v1.31.0/index.json | ||
$ | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The directory `mirror` must exist for the initial feature. | ||
Each image will be stored in a subdirectory which matches the repository name and tag. | ||
|
||
### oras restore | ||
|
||
Initially, the restore command will only support reading a directory and writing to a registry: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
oras restore --input ./mirror localhost:15000/my-mirror | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The above backup example would result in: | ||
```bash | ||
localhost:15000/my-mirror/kube-apiserver-arm64:v1.31.0 | ||
localhost:15000/my-mirror/kube-controller-manager-arm64:v1.31.0 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
A namespace in the registry will be optional. | ||
The registry in the above example could be specified as `localhost:15000`. | ||
|
||
|
||
Any directory in the input that does not contain an `index.json` shall be silently ignored. | ||
|
||
## Compressed Tar File Support | ||
|
||
After the command supports directory write and read, support will be added for write and read to a compressed tar file. | ||
The directory structure in the tar file would be the same as in the directory output. | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
oras backup --output ./mirror.tgz registry.k8s.io/kube-apiserver-arm64:v1.31.0 registry.k8s.io/kube-controller-manager-arm64:v1.31.0 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
There will be no validation on file name. | ||
The file name does not need to end in `tgz`, but the format will be compressed tar file. | ||
If the file exists, it will be overwritten. | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
oras restore --input ./mirror.tgz localhost:15000/my-mirror | ||
``` | ||
If the specified source is a file, the format is assumed to be a compressed tar file. | ||
|
||
## Backup file input from a file | ||
|
||
The backup command will support an `--input filename` argument which will be a file. | ||
The format of the contents of the file is a list of images names separated by newlines. | ||
If the `--input` argument is specified, no images may be specified on the command line. | ||
|
||
## Backup file input from standard input | ||
|
||
The backup command will support the `--input -` argument to read a list of images from standard input. | ||
The format of the input is a list of images names separated by newlines. | ||
|
||
## Restore file input from standard input | ||
|
||
The restore command will support the `--input -` argument to read a compressed tar input from standard input. | ||
|
||
## Optimize blobs | ||
|
||
Add the feature to create blobs that are duplicated between images as hard links in the directory output and compressed tar files. |
