+title: Backups
+weight: 2
+---
+
+Using a package like [spatie/laravel-backup](https://spatie.be/docs/laravel-backup) you can create backups of your application. The backups are stored as zip files in a directory.
+
+The `BackupCheck` will verify if your backups are up to date. It can check:
+- if the youngest backup has been made before a certain date
+- if the oldest backup was made after a certain date
+- the number of backups
+- the size of the backups
+
+## Usage
+
+Here's how you can register the check.
+
+You can use the `locatedAt` method to specify the directory where the backups are stored. The `locatedAt` method accepts a glob pattern.
+
+```php
+use Spatie\Health\Facades\Health;
+use Spatie\Health\Checks\Checks\BackupsCheck;
+
+Health::checks([
+    BackupsCheck::new()->locatedAt('/path/to/backups/*.zip'),
+]);
+```
+
+### Check the number of the backups
+
+You can use the `numberOfBackups` method to check if the number of backups is within a certain range.
+The function accepts a `min` and/or a `max` parameter.
+
+```php
+use Spatie\Health\Facades\Health;
+use Spatie\Health\Checks\Checks\BackupsCheck;
+
+Health::checks([
+    BackupsCheck::new()->locatedAt('/path/to/backups/*.zip')->numberOfBackups(min: 5, max: 10),
+]);
+```
+
+### Check the age of the backups
+
+You can use the `youngestBackShouldHaveBeenMadeBefore` method to check if the youngest backup was made before a certain date.
+
+Here's an example where we make sure the most recent backup is not older than 1 day.
+
+```php
+use Spatie\Health\Facades\Health;
+use Spatie\Health\Checks\Checks\BackupsCheck;
+
+Health::checks([
+    BackupsCheck::new()
+        ->locatedAt('/path/to/backups/*.zip')
+        ->youngestBackShouldHaveBeenMadeBefore(now()->subDays(1)),
+]);
+```
+
+You can use the `oldestBackShouldHaveBeenMadeAfter` method to check if the oldest backup was made after a certain date.
+
+Here's an example where we make sure the oldest backup is older than 1 week.
+
+```php
+use Spatie\Health\Facades\Health;
+use Spatie\Health\Checks\Checks\BackupsCheck;
+
+Health::checks([
+    BackupsCheck::new()
+        ->locatedAt('/path/to/backups/*.zip')
+        ->oldestBackShouldHaveBeenMadeAfter(now()->subWeeks(1)),
+]);
+```
+
+### Specify a minimum size
+
+You can use the `atLeastSizeInMb` method to specify a minimum size for the backups. Only backups that are larger than the specified size will be considered valid.
+
+```php
+use Spatie\Health\Facades\Health;
+use Spatie\Health\Checks\Checks\BackupsCheck;
+
+Health::checks([
+    BackupsCheck::new()
+        ->locatedAt('/path/to/backups/*.zip')
+        ->atLeastSizeInMb(20),
+]);
+```
