Description

Could you please add a CRD for performing logical backup on-demand?

Example CRD name : postgresqlbackup

The desired features are as follows:

  • Perform a logical backup at the same time as the resource is being executed.
  • The specifications of the logical backup (such as storage) are subject to the contents of the operatorconfiguration resource.
  • It is possible to choose the postgresql resources to be backed up.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by tracing the existing CRDs and the operatorconfiguration resource, then determine how an on-demand logical backup should select PostgreSQL resources and inherit storage settings. Done means a new postgresqlbackup CRD can trigger a logical backup immediately with those configured specifications.
