ini config for borg backup
--------------------------

A wrapper to quickly get you started backing up with borg

An easy to use ini style and profile based format

Requires:

    - Python 3 >= 3.5.0, plus development headers
    - OpenSSL >= 1.0.0, plus development headers
    - libacl (which depends on libattr), both plus development headers
    - liblz4 >= 1.7.0 (r129)
    - libzstd >= 1.3.0
    - libb2

    For information on how to install these dependencies for Borg:
    https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html

Initialize the config

.. code-block:: console

    $ borgini
    First run detected for profile: default
    Make all necessary changes to config before running this again
    You can do this by running the command:

    . borgini EDITOR --config --select default

    Default settings have been written to the ``include`` and ``exclude`` lists
    These can be edited by running:

    . borgini EDITOR --include --select default
    . borgini EDITOR --exclude --select default
..

.. note::
    the ``--select`` optional argument does not need to be passed if using the default profile

Edit the config

.. code-block:: console

    $ borgini vim --config
..

.. note::
    The selected editor is up to the user

    The following would also work (provided they are installed)

.. code-block:: console

    $ borgini code --config
    $ borgini gedit --config
    $ borgini notepad --config
..

Ensure to make necessary changes to the ``DEFAULT`` section

And ensure to configure the ``SSH`` section if an ssh repo is configured

The remaining configurations will suite most people

If you use the ``BORG_PASSPHRASE`` environment variable edit the ``ENVIRONMENT``
section to point to the keyfile

.. note::
    the file should contain one line and a password stored with safe read-write and ownership permissions

Edit the include and exclude files

.. code-block:: console

    $ borgini vim --include  # add a list of paths to back up
    $ borgini vim --exclude  # add a list of paths to exclude
..

.. note::
    The exclude list can contain subdirectories and files listed within the include list

    This will override their inclusion

To switch between profiles add ``--select PROFILE``

.. code-block:: console

    $ borgini vim --config  # edit default config
    $ borgini vim --config --select profile2  # edit profile2's config
    $ borgini vim --include --select profile2  # edit profile2's include file
    $ borgini vim --exclude --select profile2  # edit profile2's exclude file
    $ borgini --select profile2  # run profile2's backup
..

Add the following for nightly backups at 12:00 to your crontab

.. code-block:: console

    $ 0 0 * * * /usr/local/bin/borgini
    $ 0 0 * * * /usr/local/bin/borgini -s profile2  # easy for multiple repos
..
