# Setting up borg backup (optional)
|
|
|
|
The playbook can install and configure [borgbackup](https://www.borgbackup.org/) with [borgmatic](https://torsion.org/borgmatic/) for you.
|
|
BorgBackup is a deduplicating backup program with optional compression and encryption.
|
|
That means your daily incremental backups can be stored in a fraction of the space and is safe whether you store it at home or on a cloud service.
|
|
|
|
The backup will run based on `matrix_backup_borg_schedule` var (systemd timer calendar), default: 4am every day
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
1. Create ssh key on any machine:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -N '' -f matrix-borg-backup -C matrix
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Add public part of that ssh key to your borg provider / server:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# example to append the new PUBKEY contents, where:
|
|
# PUBKEY is path to the public key,
|
|
# USER is a ssh user on a provider / server
|
|
# HOST is a ssh host of a provider / server
|
|
cat PUBKEY | ssh USER@HOST 'dd of=.ssh/authorized_keys oflag=append conv=notrunc'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
|
|
|
|
Minimal working configuration (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml`) to enable borg backup:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_backup_borg_enabled: true
|
|
matrix_backup_borg_location_repositories:
|
|
- USER@HOST:REPO
|
|
matrix_backup_borg_storage_encryption_passphrase: "PASSPHRASE"
|
|
matrix_backup_borg_ssh_key_private: |
|
|
PRIVATE KEY
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where:
|
|
|
|
* USER - ssh user of a provider / server
|
|
* HOST - ssh host of a provider / server
|
|
* REPO - borg repository name, it will be initialized on backup start, eg: `matrix`
|
|
* PASSPHRASE - super-secret borg passphrase, you may generate it with `pwgen -s 64 1` or use any password manager
|
|
* PRIVATE KEY - the content of the public part of the ssh key you created before
|
|
|
|
Check the `roles/matrix-backup-borg/defaults/main.yml` for the full list of available options
|
|
|
|
## Installing
|
|
|
|
After configuring the playbook, run the [installation](installing.md) command again:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,start
|
|
```
