sback

A CLI tool to manage and run your backups.

How it works

Most of the backup solutions out there are way to complex, this is why I've created this simple tool. It has a configuration file which contains all files or directories you want to back up and a different configuration file which contains the destinations where the backup should be placed in an rsync compatible format. When you start the backup there is a gzipped tarball created which then gets transferred to all remotes one by one. And that's it. No magic, no surprises.

The configuration files are placed in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME and the tarball is placed in $XDG_CACHE_HOME

Here is a table showing the different commands

command subcommand description example
files list list all files sback files list
files add add a file sback files add ./README.md
files remove remove a file sback files remove $PWD/README.md
files clean sorts the file list and removes duplicates in case of manual editing sback files clean
remotes list list all remote sback remotes list
remotes add add a remote sback remote add backup-user@12.98.34.76:~/backup
remotes remove remove a remote sback remote remove backup-user@12.98.34.76:~/backup
run - executes the backup process sback run

Dependencies

This tool uses rsync to transfer these files so you need rsync installed.
