+# Directus Backup Script
+
+This script automates backups for a Directus instance, zipping key directories and uploading the archive to an S3 bucket. It is designed to be run as a cron job for regular, automated backups.
+
+## Features
+- Zips the `database`, `extensions`, and `uploads` directories from your Directus instance
+- Uploads the backup archive to an S3 bucket with a timestamped filename
+- Assumes an AWS IAM role for secure S3 access
+- Cleans up temporary files after upload
+
+## Prerequisites
+- Bash shell
+- `zip` utility installed
+- AWS CLI installed and configured
+- An IAM user with permission to write to the bucket
+
+## Setup
+1. **Clone or copy the script to your server.**
+2. **Create a `.env` file** in the same directory as the script with the following variables:
+   ```env
+   ROLE_ARN=arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/directus-backup-writer
+   BUCKET_NAME=your-s3-bucket-name
+   SOURCE_DIR="/path/to/your/directus-instance"
+   ```
+3. **Install dependencies:**
+   - On Ubuntu/Debian: `sudo apt-get install zip awscli jq`
+   - On CentOS/RHEL: `sudo yum install zip awscli jq`
+   - On Alpine: `sudo apk add zip aws-cli jq`
+4. **Test the script manually:**
+   ```bash
+   ./directus-backup.sh
+   ```
+5. **Set up a cron job** to run the script automatically. For example, to run every day at 2am:
+   ```cron
+   0 2 * * * /path/to/directus-backup.sh >> /var/log/directus-backup.log 2>&1
+   ```
