@cindex Backup
@subsubheading Backup Services
The @code{(gnu services backup)} module offers services for backing up
file system trees. For now, it provides the @code{restic-backup-service-type}.
With @code{restic-backup-service-type}, you can periodically back up
directories and files with @uref{https://restic.net/, Restic}, which
supports end-to-end encryption and deduplication. Consider the
following configuration:
@lisp
(use-service-modules backup @dots{}) ;for 'restic-backup-service-type'
(use-package-modules sync @dots{}) ;for 'rclone'
(operating-system
;; @dots{}
(packages (append (list rclone) ;for use by restic
%base-packages))
(services
(list
(service restic-backup-service-type
(restic-backup-configuration
(jobs
(list (restic-backup-job
(name "remote-ftp")
(repository "rclone:remote-ftp:backup/restic")
(password-file "/root/.restic")
;; Every day at 23.
(schedule "0 23 * * *")
(files '("/root/.restic"
"/root/.config/rclone"
"/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key"
"/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub"
"/etc/guix/signing-key.pub"
"/etc/guix/signing-key.sec"))))))))))
@end lisp
Each @code{restic-backup-job} translates to an mcron job which sets the
@env{RESTIC_PASSWORD} environment variable by reading the first line of
@code{password-file} and runs @command{restic backup}, creating backups
using rclone of all the files listed in the @code{files} field.
The @code{restic-backup-service-type} installs as well @code{restic-guix}
to the system profile, a @code{restic} utility wrapper that allows for easier
interaction with the Guix configured backup jobs. For example the following
could be used to instantaneusly trigger a backup for the above shown
configuration, without waiting for the scheduled job:
@example
restic-guix backup remote-ftp
@end example
@c %start of fragment
@deftp {Data Type} restic-backup-configuration
Available @code{restic-backup-configuration} fields are:
@table @asis
@item @code{jobs} (default: @code{'()}) (type: list-of-restic-backup-jobs)
The list of backup jobs for the current system.
@end table
@end deftp
@c %end of fragment
@c %start of fragment
@deftp {Data Type} restic-backup-job
Available @code{restic-backup-job} fields are:
@table @asis
@item @code{restic} (default: @code{restic}) (type: package)
The restic package to be used for the current job.
@item @code{user} (default: @code{"root"}) (type: string)
The user used for running the current job.
@item @code{repository} (type: string)
The restic repository target of this job.
@item @code{name} (type: string)
A string denoting a name for this job.
@item @code{password-file} (type: string)
Name of the password file, readable by the configured @code{user},
that will be used to set the @env{RESTIC_PASSWORD} environment variable
for the current job.
@item @code{schedule} (type: gexp-or-string)
A string or a gexp that will be passed as time specification in the
mcron job specification (@pxref{Syntax, mcron job specifications,,
mcron,GNU@tie{}mcron}).
@item @code{files} (default: @code{'()}) (type: list-of-lowerables)
The list of files or directories to be backed up. It must be a list of
values that can be lowered to strings.
@item @code{verbose?} (default: @code{#f}) (type: boolean)
Whether to enable verbose output for the current backup job.
@item @code{extra-flags} (default: @code{'()}) (type: list-of-lowerables)
A list of values that are lowered to strings. These will be passed as
command-line arguments to the current job @command{restic backup}
invokation.
