Backush

Reliably and easily manage several backup locations. Fast, secure, resilient, portable.

Backup: Example Usage

backush --push server-name-here [ second-server-name-here ... ]

backush can also be executed without any server arguments, this will start an interactive mode.

backush [ --push ]

Push is assumed if no arguments are given.

Upback: Example Usage

Note: Upback is the opposite of backup. It's when you pull from a server instead of push.

backush --pull server-name-here [ second-server-name-here ... ]

Again, no server arguments will run in interactive mode.

backush --pull

Where does it backup from?

It uses the current working directory as the source. The server is listed in the backup-servers file (autogenerated).

Cleaning

Before ./backush --push uploads, it calls clean recursively. Usage: encrypting sensitive data, cleaning up temporaries, compress files.

Perform cleaning without uploading with ./backush --clean

If any clean script fails, the upload will not commence.

Contaminating

After ./backush --pull downloads, it calls contamine recursively. Usage: decrypt files, extract files, create temporaries. Contamine is the antonym of clean.

Perform contamination without downloading with ./backush --contamine

Dependencies

Dependencies are always checked. To explicitly check without running further use ./backush --check.
