## Usage

```
'src snapshot databases' generates commands to export Sourcegraph database dumps.
Note that these commands are intended for use as reference - you may need to adjust the commands for your deployment.

USAGE
	src [-v] snapshot databases [--targets=<docker|k8s|"targets.yaml">] [--run] <pg_dump|docker|kubectl>

TARGETS FILES
	Predefined targets are available based on default Sourcegraph configurations ('docker', 'k8s').
	Custom targets configuration can be provided in YAML format with '--targets=target.yaml', e.g.

		pgsql:
			target: ...   # the DSN of the database deployment, e.g. in docker, the name of the database container
			dbname: ...   # name of database
			username: ... # username for database access
			password: ... # password for database access - only include password if it is non-sensitive
		codeintel:
			# same as above
		codeinsights:
			# same as above

	See the pgdump.Targets type for more details.
