### Notes
|
||||
#### PostgreSQL version
|
||||
Images are tagged by the major PostgreSQL version they support: `9`, `10`, `11`, or `12`.
|
||||
#### Scheduling
|
||||
The `SCHEDULE` variable is determines backup frequency. See go-cron schedules documentation [here](http://godoc.org/github.com/robfig/cron#hdr-Predefined_schedules).
|
||||
#### Encrypted backups
|
||||
If `PASSPHRASE` is provided, the backup will be encrypted using GPG.

#### Notes
|
||||
- If your bucket has more than a 1000 files the latest may not be restored, only one S3 `ls` command is used
|
||||
- Your S3 prefix should only contain backups which you wish to restore - 'latest' is determined based on unix sort with no filtering
