About
-----

Backuppy backs up and restores your data using rsync, allowing different routes to the same, or different destinations.

The following instructions can be executed in any system Python environment, but you may want to use a
`virtual environment <https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html>`_. Alternatively, some actions can be performed using
`tox <https://tox.readthedocs.io/>`_ as well, which produces its own virtual environments in ``.tox/py**``.

Usage
-----

Requirements
^^^^^^^^^^^^


* Python 2.7+

Installation
^^^^^^^^^^^^

In any Python environment, run ``pip install backuppy``.

Command line
^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code-block:: bash

   $ backuppy --help
   usage: backuppy [-h] {backup} ...

   Backuppy backs up and restores your data using rsync.

   positional arguments:
     {backup}
       backup    Starts a back-up.

   optional arguments:
     -h, --help  show this help message and exit

Configuration
^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Configuration is written in `YAML <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML>`_ or `JSON <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON>`_\ ,
and can be stored anywhere as ``*.yml``\ , ``*.yaml``\ , or ``*.json`` files. An example of the smallest possible configuration
file:

.. code-block:: yaml

   source:
     type: path
     configuration:
       path: ./source
   target:
     type: path
     configuration:
       path: ./target

To tweak Backuppy's output:

.. code-block:: yaml

   # An optional human-readable name for this back-up. It will default to the configuration file name.
   name: Test
   # Whether or not to generate verbose output. Defaults to `false`.
   verbose: true

Backuppy supports plugins for back-up source and target locations, as well as notifications.

To configure a local path-based target:

.. code-block:: yaml

   type: path
   configuration:
     # The local path to the target directory. If the path is relative, it will be resolved against the location of
     # the configuration file.
     path: ./target

To configure a remote target over SSH:

.. code-block:: yaml

   type: ssh
   configuration:
     # The host to connect to.
     host: example.com
     # The SSH port to use. Defaults to 22.
     port: 22
     # The name of the user on the remote system to log in as.
     user: bart
     # The absolute path to the target directory on the remote. 
     path: /home/bart/target

The SSH key must have been accepted already, and the host must support Bash.

To specify multiple routes to the same target, such as one over a local network mount, and a fallback over SSH:

.. code-block:: yaml

   target:
     type: first_available
     configuration:
       targets:
         - type: path
           configuration:
             path: ./target
         - type: ssh
           configuration:
             host: example.com
             user: bart 
             path: /home/bart/target

To configure user-facing notifications:

.. code-block:: yaml

   # An optional list of zero or more notification methods. Message types are:
   # - "state": unimportant, mass-generated, or debugging output which may be ignored.
   # - "inform": informative messages, such as those marking the start of an action.
   # - "confirm": confirmation messages, such as those marking the successful completion of an action.
   # - "alert": important messages that warrant someone's attention, such as in case of errors.
   notifications: []

To display notifications to stdout and stderr (terminal output):

.. code-block:: yaml

   notifications:
     - type: stdio

To display notifications using ``notify-send``\ :

.. code-block:: yaml

   notifications:
     - type: notify-send

To process notifications through custom CLI commands:

.. code-block:: yaml

   notifications:
     - type: command
       # Commands are specified as CLI arguments. `fallback` is required if any of the others are missing.
       configuration:
         state:
           - echo
           - "{message}"
         inform:
           - echo
           - "{message}"
         confirm:
           - echo
           - "{message}"
         alert:
           - echo
           - "{message}"
         fallback:
           - echo
           - "{message}"

To append notifications to files:

.. code-block:: yaml

   notifications:
     - type: file
       # Paths must be absolute. `fallback` is required if any of the others are missing.
       configuration:
         state:
           - /var/log/backuppy
         inform:
           - /var/log/backuppy
         confirm:
           - /var/log/backuppy
         alert:
           - /var/log/backuppy
         fallback:
           - /var/log/backuppy

Development
-----------

Requirements
^^^^^^^^^^^^


* The generic requirements documented earlier.
* Bash (you're all good if ``which bash`` outputs a path in your terminal)

Installation
^^^^^^^^^^^^

Run ``git clone https://github.com/bartfeenstra/backuppy.git``.

If you wish to contribute code changes, you may want to fork this project first, and clone your own forked repository
instead.

Building
^^^^^^^^

In any Python environment, run ``./bin/build-dev``.

With tox, run ``tox --develop --notest``.

Testing
^^^^^^^

In any Python environment, run ``./bin/test``.

With tox, run ``tox --develop``

Fixing problems automatically
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In any Python environment, run ``./bin/fix``.
