Backup-RClone

This script can create a backup of directories on a remote server. In addition to RClone's own encryption, the files can be backed up in plain text or be encrypted with GPG/PGP.

Dependencies

  • rclone
  • sqlite3

Features

  • Backup over RClone
  • Encryption of the files
  • configuration files per archive directory

Installation

git clone https://git.marcelsite.com/marcel/backup-rclone.git
cd backup-rclone
chmod u+x backup-rclone.sh

Usage

The RClone share name is currently hardcoded as "backup:", so you need to create a share called "backup".

To make a backup, you need to put a .backup.env-file into the root of the directory you want to back up. An example file is inside of this repository. You need to edit the file first to your liking:

  • enctype: if you want the files to be encrypted pre-upload. (gpg: encrypt for RECIPIENT_ID; plain: don't encrypt)
  • include: (optional) directories/files to consider for a backup
  • exclude: (optional) directories/files to never backup, even if in include
  • backdir: root directory on the remote server (e.g. backup:pc1/documents)
  • hashdb: path to the database file on the remote server
  • RECIPIENT_ID: (only if enctype="gpg") the ID of the recipient's public key

After creating the file, you can start a backup with ./backup-rclone.sh <directory name>, e.g.: ./backup-rclone.sh /home/user/documents (a .backup.env file need st obe in that directory!).
