PHP and MySql database backup

I have an internet portal based on MySql database and what I need is
to make a database backup , after each actualization of data.

I know how should PHP code look like but I have no idea how to create
SQL command that will backup full database.

I know that this group does't concern MySql directly but lots of PHP
programmers have wide knowledge of MySql.

I will be grateful for help.

Greetings

I run this script from cron every night:

$ more sql-backup.sh
export test2
declare test2=`date|cut -c 1-3`
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqldump --all-databases -ppassword |gzip >
/var/backups/all_databases_$ test2.sql.gz

but I found a lot of php based solutions at

Hi, I hope this question isn't too far off topic....I'm almost at my wits end trying to figure this out.

If I execute the script via my browser, the database is emailed to me in a 'gzip' format, which...

Folks: We have a web-based app that's _really_ slowing down because multiple clients are writing their own private data into a single, central database. I guess the previous programmer did things this way because it made things easy. Well, I'm the person that has to put up with the long-term headache. Anywho, someone at work wants things sped up, so what I'm looking at doing is this for each client:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
