# Setting up Postgres backup (optional) The playbook can install and configure [docker-postgres-backup-local](https://github.com/prodrigestivill/docker-postgres-backup-local) for you. The Ansible role for docker-postgres-backup-local is developed and maintained by [MASH (mother-of-all-self-hosting) project](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-postgres-backup). For details about configuring docker-postgres-backup-local, you can check them via: - [the role's documentation at the MASH project](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-postgres-backup/blob/main/docs/configuring-postgres-backup.md) - `roles/galaxy/postgres_backup/docs/configuring-postgres-backup.md` locally, if you have [fetched the Ansible roles](installing.md#update-ansible-roles) **Note**: for a more complete backup solution (one that includes not only Postgres, but also other configuration/data files), you may wish to look into [BorgBackup](configuring-playbook-backup-borg.md) instead.
