That command works well and accomplishes some of what rincr what built to solve. For example, when I mention browse-ability, I mean on the backup host without any dependencies so I can use standard file tools and browsers.
I also needed both "pull" (backup remote files) and "push" (backup local files) backup features and if I'm not mistaken restic still only supports the "push" model.
EDIT: Added more details
- homebrewer 2y agoIf you're doing pull to prevent remotes from destroying old backups (in case of malware takeover, etc), this can be solved by running rest-server with --append-only https://github.com/restic/rest-server https://github.com/restic/rest-server It 403's any attempt to overwrite or delete old data.
- luoc 2y agoBrowsing without dependencies is a bit tricky due to a) deduplication, b) encryption and c) compression of restic's backups.
- rakoo 2y ago> I mean on the backup host without any dependencies so I can use standard file tools and browsers. This means the backups are not encrypted though, and is something you really have to think twice before requiring > "pull" (backup remote files) You can mount the server to backup on the backup host, or you can ssh from the backup host to the server to backup, call `tar cf - /folder`, and ingest that from stdin on the backup host. Both will retransmit the totality of the files to backup
