leveldown-hyper is a fork of leveldown and uses HyperLevelDB as backend. It extends the leveldown api with functionality to do live backups. This README only documents the liveBackup() method. For a complete reference we refer to leveldown.

leveldown can be considered an upstream repository to leveldown-hyper and any common logic and bug fixes will be merged from upstream into this repository.

If you are upgrading: please see UPGRADING.md.

db.liveBackup(name, callback)

liveBackup() is an instance method on an existing database object, used to make a live backup of the current state of the database.

The name parameter is a String. A successful live backup will result in a backup folder named backup-:name inside the location folder of the current database.

The callback function will be called with no arguments when a live backup was successful, or with a single error argument if the backup operation failed for any reason.
