borg_interface

This application provides an interface to borg backup. At a later point it might as well work with restic.

Installation and Getting started

To start the application simply execute the borg_interface file. You will then see a list of options which are fairly self explanatory.

Configuration

To configure borg_interface please edit the borg_interface.cfg file. All the options have to be placed under the [DEFAULT] section. The proper syntax is:

option: value

or

option=value

Possible values as of now are:

server

define a server on which the archive reside.

user

defines the user which has permission to connect to the server.

repository_path

defines the path where the repository is set up. This is needed for both a remote and a local repository.

password

defines the repository password

Example Config

server: testserver.local user: borg repository_path: /home/borg/backup/repository password: foo
