Running fwbackups in a Docker Container (Ubuntu 20.04). Configuration is done via .conf file.

1.0, latest]As it can be difficult to get fwbackups installed in newer Ubuntu versions (meaning >=16.04) I created a Docker Container.
For detailed instructions please see the readme on the associated GitHub Repo at https://github.com/sh39sxn/fwbackups-docker
As fwbackups is run inside the Docker Container you usually want to save the backups on the host system. Therefore when running the Docker container two mount points are used.
The first one defines where to store the created backups on the host system. In this example the backups are stored in the directory "backups" which is created in the current folder from which you are launching the Docker Container.
-v /$(pwd)/backups:/backups
The second one defines the partition or folder you want to backup from the host system. Therefore it's mounted to "/filesystem" inside the container. If you want to use another name you have to change the settings of fwbackups (see my GitHub repo).
-v /:/filesystem
Run the Docker container (adjust the volumes mountings before if you want, see section above regarding Configuration):
docker run -it -e LOCAL_USER_ID=`id -u $USER` -v /$(pwd)/backups:/backups -v /:/filesystem sh39sxn/fwbackups-docker:latest
