We run a couple of automated
scans to help you access a
module's quality. Each module is
given a score based on how well
the author has formatted their
code and documentation and
modules are also checked for
malware using VirusTotal.

is for guidance only and neither of
these methods should be considered
an endorsement by Puppet.

thexa4/backup — version 1.0.0 Oct 4th 2017

#Backup This configures backups using duplicity and SecretServer.

Uses PKI module to automatically setup client certificates.

##Usage Available parameters:

  • $secret_host
  • $backup_destination
  • $ca = "/etc/ssl/certs/host-ca.crt"
  • $cert = "/etc/ssl/certs/host.crt"
  • $key = "/etc/ssl/private/host.key"
  • $excludes = ['/proc','/sys','/dev','/proc','/run','/media','/mnt','/pub','**/.cache']

##Custom configuration Almost all configuration can be changed by placing files in the following folders

  • /etc/duply/default/conf.d/: Allows overriding duply config settings (run duply template create for an overview of available settings)
  • /etc/duply/default/pre.d/: Allows running scripts before a backup (for database snapshotting for example)
  • /etc/duply/default/post.d/: Allows running scripts after a backup

##See also Works with backup_hubic if you need Hubic as a target
