Maintaining this project

[vik-y]

Hi Team,

First of all, thanks for this project. I use it very extensively and it has been of great use to me. I would like to extend this project a bit and add more features to it. There are bunch of pending PRs in the project which might be useful but have been open for a while.

I have created this fork https://github.com/vik-y/mongodump-s3 and I am looking forward to doing the following in it.

1. Merge all the PRs pending in this repo on that fork
2. Add Kubernetes yamls
3. Add docs for recovering backups

If possible once I'm done with the changes I would like you to update the Readme with the fork link if that's ok with you. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

Also, I would like to add some tests to it using Github Actions. The test would create different versions of mongo database, dump some data into it and then take backup of that data onto a S3 compatible store.

I have forked this project and added more features to it and working on actively improving it as well. Those who land up here feel free to try out my fork https://github.com/vik-y/mongodump-s3

It has support for slack hooks + latest mongo tools + tests to validate backups
