Ansible Playbook for setting up BorgBackup

BorgBackup Ansible Playbook

A simple Ansible Playbook to install and set up BorgBackup.

Requirements

  • You need borg init the target repository first;
  • If passing -e borg_setup_pubkey=True, a pair of SSH key would be generated on the host to be backed up (if not existed), and installed to the backup host;
  • If using rsync.net as backup host, special tasks would be run to ensure the installation of the public key.

Usage

  1. Copy hosts.example to hosts and edit it properly.
  2. Optionally edit the vars in site.yaml. They can be overridden by -e key=value.
  3. Run ansible-playbook -i hosts site.yaml.
