Description for using:

• The package will try to find tool for dumping automatically otherwise
  if finding didn't get result the package will try find it in set path in config file under key "path_to_dump_tool"
  if the two tries didn't get result the package will throw Exception

• You can change path where you want to save your backups: just set your path in config file under key "path_to_backup"

• You can modify dumping options in config file under key "options" for any database

• The package includes 2 ways to use dumping of your database:
  artisan command: php artisan backup:create --max=N
  N - number of copies you want to keep; you don't have to set the option "--max=N" than the package set it in default value - 1

• Facade: Maksym\LaravelBackupPackage\Facades\BackupPackage::startDump(N);
  N - number of copies you want to keep;
  You can set N in function directly or set it in your env in key BACKUP_MAX_COPIES=N otherwise the package takes default value - 1
