instantlinux/rest-server repository overview

⁠rest-server

Backend server for restic backup client.

⁠Usage

This example is for docker-compose. Set up a secret:

USERNAME=bkp
SECRETS_DIR=/var/adm/secrets
htpasswd -B -c $SECRETS_DIR/restic-htpasswd $USERNAME
chgrp 2025 $SECRETS_DIR/restic-htpasswd
chmod 640 $SECRETS_DIR/restic-htpasswd

If using helm, convert the rest-htpasswd to base64 and:

cd docker-tools/k8s
make secrets/restic-htpasswd.yml
make secrets/restic-htpasswd

Define a storage volume on the host; create a blank volume and:

sudo mount /dev/<dev name> /var/backup/restic
sudo chown 2025 /var/backup/restic
sudo chmod 700 /var/backup/restic

An example compose file is provided here in docker-compose.yml. This is for the common scenario of running under docker-compose on a file server. Customize Makefile⁠ after cloning this repo:
