Recovery

If this is deployed on a system, you can use restic after sourcing the configuration as follows:

$ source /etc/restic/config
$ restic stats
...

See https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/050_restore.html for more details about restoring.

Systemd

Restic should be setup as systemd timer, so you can check the status as follows:

$ systemctl list-timers restic-backup
$ systemctl status restic-backup
