coaxial/borg repository overview

⁠docker-borg

Borg⁠ in an Alpine container for your backup needs. Updated whenever alpine:latest is.

To see which version of borg this container is using, check this page: https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=borgbackup⁠ and choose the highest vx.x available (i.e. not edge). Or run this container with docker image pull coaxial/borg && docker run --rm coaxial/borg borg --version.

⁠Usage

Typically, you'd want to use this image as the base image for your backup container and add a volume for your ssh keys, your known_hosts file, and you backup directories.

FROM coaxial/borg
VOLUME /data
VOLUME /root/.ssh
CMD ["borg", <borg parameters, cf. its docs>]

You would then run it with docker run --rm -v data_volume:/backup:ro -v ssh_volume:/root/.ssh:ro myimage.

The ssh_volume should contain the ssh keys to connect to the remote borg repo, and a known_hosts file to avoid the interactive message whether to accept the new ssh key on connecting to a remote host.

⁠Issues

Please open an issue describe the problem/feature request. I will consider adding more tags or architectures if there is a demand for them.
