This script is designed to automate the process of backing up various databases to AWS S3. It supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB.

When initialized, the script reads database connection URIs from environment variables.

Scheduled through a cron job, it dumps the databases, compresses the data, and transfers the files to a predetermined AWS S3 bucket.

Binance DCA BotOpen Source
179

Command-line trading bot using Node.js that connects to the Binance exchange and automatically executes trades via their API.

After being frustrated with the lack of tools to automate trades on the Binance platform, I developed this bot. It's open-source on GitHub with over 150 stars and includes a Docker image for easy deployment.

The bot can be configured to trade specific currency pairs and includes options for external services such as email notifications through SendGrid and data storage using MongoDB as a storage adaptor.
