# Backup
This tutorial demonstrates commands for backing up FreshRSS. It assumes that your main FreshRSS directory is `/usr/share/FreshRSS`; If you've installed it somewhere else, substitute your path as necessary.
## Installation Backup
Do this before an upgrade.
### Creating a Backup
First, Enter the directory you wish to save your backup to. Here, for example, we'll save the backup to the user home directory
```
cd ~
```
Next, we'll create a gzipped tar archive of the FreshRSS directory. The following command will archive the entire contents of your FreshRSS installation in it's current state.
```
tar -czf FreshRSS-backup.tgz -C /usr/share/FreshRSS/ .
```
And you're done!
### Restoring from a Backup
First, copy the backup previously made into your FreshRSS directory
```
cp ~/FreshRSS-backup.tgz /usr/share/FreshRSS/
```
Next, change to your FreshRSS directory
```
cd /usr/share/FreshRSS/
```
Extract the backup
```
tar -xzf FreshRSS-backup.tgz
```
And optionally, as cleanup, remove the copy of your backup from the FreshRSS directory
```
rm FreshRSS-backup.tgz
```
## Backing up Feeds
### Feed list Export
You can export your feed list in OPML format either from the web interface, or from the [Command-Line Interface](https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS/blob/master/cli/README.md).
### Saving Articles
To save articles, you can use [phpMyAdmin](https://www.phpmyadmin.net/) or MySQL tools, where `<db_user>` is your database username, `<db_host>` is the hostname of your web server containing your FreshRSS database, and `<freshrss_db>` is the database used by FreshRSS:
```
mysqldump --skip-comments --disable-keys --user=<db_user> --password --host <db_host> --result-file=freshrss.dump.sql --databases <freshrss_db>
```
