canasta backup restore

Restore a backup

Synopsis

Restore a Canasta instance from a backup snapshot. By default, a safety snapshot is taken before restoring. The restore replaces configuration files, extensions, images, skins, public_assets, .env, docker-compose.override.yml, my.cnf, and all wiki databases with the contents of the specified snapshot.

Use -w/--wiki to restore only a single wiki's database, per-wiki settings, images, and public assets from the backup, leaving shared files untouched.
