# Copy archive and database dump to S3
aws s3 cp "/tmp/$BACKUP_FOLDER/$(basename "$SOURCE_DIR").tar.gz" "s3://$S3_BUCKET/$S3_FOLDER/$BACKUP_FOLDER/"

for example i need to exclude some dir in my path

cd "$(dirname "$SOURCE_DIR")" || exit
tar -zcvf "/tmp/$BACKUP_FOLDER/$(basename "$SOURCE_DIR").tar.gz" --exclude='wp-content/uploads' --exclude='wp-content/backups-dup-lite' "$(basename "$SOURCE_DIR")"
