datenknoten/restic-orchestrator

runs the restic backup program on multiple hosts

restic orchestrator

With restic you can do fine backups on individual hosts. With restic orchestrator you can do that on multiple hosts.

Install

I'm building releases for linux amd64 with nexe, which you can find the release section.

You can also clone this repo and run the orchestrator from your shell:

$ git clone https://github.com/datenknoten/restic-orchestrator
$ cd restic-orchestrator
$ npm install
$ npm start

You need at least node 8.

Usage

You need to put a config file in one of these directories:

OS	Path
Linux	$XDG_DATA_HOME/restic-orchestrator/config.json or $HOME/.local/share/restic-orchestrator/config.json
Windows	%APPDATA%/datenknoten/restic-orchestrator/config.json
Mac OSX	$HOME/Library/Application Support/restic-orchestrator/config.json

Then run restic-orchestrator everytime you want to do a backup.
