Digital-ocean-auto-volume-backup

Digital ocean auto volume backup shell script.Currently, it will keep 2 newest snapshots. If you want to config this, change the value.

What does this script do ?

Since DigitalOcean currently didn't provide auto backup for the volume. So, i created the script to call DigitalOcean API and creating volume's snapshot. After successfully created, it will delete the old snapshot.

Currently, it will keep 2 newest snapshots. If you want to config this, change the value.
