Wiki Cafe's configuration for a Backupbot II deployment. Originally slimmed down from an `abra` [recipe](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/backup-bot-two) by [Co-op Cloud](https://coopcloud.tech/).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Background
|
||||
## Deploying the app with Docker Swarm
|
||||
|
||||
There are lots of Docker volume backup systems; all of them have one or both of these limitations:
|
||||
- You need to define all the volumes to back up in the configuration system
|
||||
- Backups require services to be stopped to take consistent copies
|
||||
Set the environment variables from the .env file during the shell session.
|
||||
|
||||
Backupbot II tries to help, by
|
||||
1. **letting you define backups using Docker labels**, so you can **easily collect your backups for use with another system** like docker-volume-backup.
|
||||
2. **running pre- and post-commands** before and after backups, for example to use database tools to take a backup from a running service.
|
||||
|
||||
## Deployment
|
||||
|
||||
### With Co-op Cloud
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* `abra app new backup-bot-two`
|
||||
* `abra app config <app-name>`
|
||||
- set storage options. Either configure `CRON_SCHEDULE`, or set up `swarm-cronjob`
|
||||
* `abra app secret generate -a <backupbot_name>`
|
||||
* `abra app deploy <app-name>`
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Per default Backupbot stores the backups locally in the repository `/backups/restic`, which is accessible as volume at `/var/lib/docker/volumes/<backupbot_name>_backups/_data/restic/`
|
||||
|
||||
The backup location can be changed using the `RESTIC_REPOSITORY` env variable.
|
||||
|
||||
### S3 Storage
|
||||
|
||||
To use S3 storage as backup location set the following envs:
|
||||
```
|
||||
RESTIC_REPOSITORY=s3:<S3-SERVICE-URL>/<BUCKET-NAME>
|
||||
SECRET_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_VERSION=v1
|
||||
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<MY_ACCESS_KEY>
|
||||
COMPOSE_FILE="$COMPOSE_FILE:compose.s3.yml"
|
||||
set -a && source .env && set +a
|
||||
```
|
||||
and add your `<SECRET_ACCESS_KEY>` as docker secret:
|
||||
`abra app secret insert <backupbot_name> aws_secret_access_key v1 <SECRET_ACCESS_KEY>`
|
||||
|
||||
See [restic s3 docs](https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/030_preparing_a_new_repo.html#amazon-s3) for more information.
|
||||
Set the secrets.
|
||||
|
||||
### SFTP Storage
|
||||
|
||||
> With sftp it is not possible to prevent the backupbot from deleting backups in case of a compromised machine. Therefore we recommend to use S3, REST or rclone server without delete permissions.
|
||||
|
||||
To use SFTP storage as backup location set the following envs:
|
||||
```
|
||||
RESTIC_REPOSITORY=sftp:user@host:/restic-repo-path
|
||||
SECRET_SSH_KEY_VERSION=v1
|
||||
SSH_HOST_KEY="hostname ssh-rsa AAAAB3...
|
||||
COMPOSE_FILE="$COMPOSE_FILE:compose.ssh.yml"
|
||||
printf "SECRET_HERE" | docker secret create SECRET_NAME -
|
||||
```
|
||||
To get the `SSH_HOST_KEY` run the following command `ssh-keyscan <hostname>`
|
||||
|
||||
Generate an ssh keypair: `ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f backupkey -P ''`
|
||||
Add the key to your `authorized_keys`:
|
||||
`ssh-copy-id -i backupkey <user>@<hostname>`
|
||||
Add your `SSH_KEY` as docker secret:
|
||||
```
|
||||
abra app secret insert <backupbot_name> ssh_key v1 """$(cat backupkey)
|
||||
"""
|
||||
```
|
||||
> Attention: This command needs to be executed exactly as stated above, because it places a trailing newline at the end, if this is missing you will get the following error: `Load key "/run/secrets/ssh_key": error in libcrypto`
|
||||
Deploy using the `-c` flag to specify one or multiple compose files.
|
||||
|
||||
### Restic REST server Storage
|
||||
|
||||
You can simply set the `RESTIC_REPOSITORY` variable to your REST server URL `rest:http://host:8000/`.
|
||||
If you access the REST server with a password `rest:https://user:pass@host:8000/` you should hide the whole URL containing the password inside a secret.
|
||||
Uncomment these lines:
|
||||
```
|
||||
SECRET_RESTIC_REPO_VERSION=v1
|
||||
COMPOSE_FILE="$COMPOSE_FILE:compose.secret.yml"
|
||||
docker stack deploy backup-bot-two -c compose.yaml
|
||||
```
|
||||
Add your REST server url as secret:
|
||||
```
|
||||
`abra app secret insert <backupbot_name> restic_repo v1 "rest:https://user:pass@host:8000/"`
|
||||
```
|
||||
The secret will overwrite the `RESTIC_REPOSITORY` variable.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
See [restic REST docs](https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/030_preparing_a_new_repo.html#rest-server) for more information.

## Commands
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Run the cronjob that creates a backup, including the push notifications and docker logging:
|
||||
`abra app cmd <backupbot_name> app run_cron`
|
||||
- Find the ID or name of the backup container:
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker ps --filter "name=backup-bot-two_app"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Create a backup of all apps:
|
||||
2. Run the desired command using `docker exec`:
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker exec -it <container_id_or_name> backup <command> [options]
|
||||
```
|
||||
Replace `<container_id_or_name>` with the ID or name of the backup container.
|
||||
|
||||
`abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup create`
|
||||
Available commands:
|
||||
- `create`: Initiate the backup process.
|
||||
- `restore`: Restore a specific snapshot to a target directory.
|
||||
- `snapshots`: List available snapshots.
|
||||
- `ls`: List files in a specific snapshot.
|
||||
- `download`: Download specific files, volumes, or secrets from a snapshot.
|
||||
|
||||
> The apps to backup up need to be deployed
|
||||
Options:
|
||||
- `--host`, `-h`: Specify the service name (e.g., `app`).
|
||||
- `--repo`, `-r`: Specify the Restic repository location (e.g., `/run/secrets/restic_repo`).
|
||||
- `--log`, `-l`: Set the log level (e.g., `debug`, `info`, `warning`, `error`).
|
||||
- `--machine-logs`, `-m`: Enable machine-readable JSON logging.
|
||||
|
||||
Create an individual backup:
|
||||
## Examples
|
||||
|
||||
`abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup --host <target_app_name> create`
|
||||
|
||||
Create a backup to a local repository:
|
||||
|
||||
`abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup create -r /backups/restic`
|
||||
|
||||
> It is recommended to shutdown/undeploy an app before restoring the data
|
||||
|
||||
Restore the latest snapshot of all including apps:
|
||||
|
||||
`abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup restore`
|
||||
|
||||
Restore a specific snapshot of an individual app:
|
||||
|
||||
`abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup --host <target_app_name> restore --snapshot <snapshot_id>`
|
||||
|
||||
Show all snapshots:
|
||||
|
||||
`abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup snapshots`
|
||||
|
||||
Show all snapshots containing a specific app:
|
||||
|
||||
`abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup --host <target_app_name> snapshots`
|
||||
|
||||
Show all files inside the latest snapshot (can be very verbose):
|
||||
|
||||
`abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup ls`
|
||||
|
||||
Show specific files inside a selected snapshot:
|
||||
|
||||
`abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup ls --snapshot <snapshot_id> --path /var/lib/docker/volumes/`
|
||||
|
||||
Download files from a snapshot:
|
||||
Create a backup:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
filename=$(abra app run <backupbot_name> app -- backup download --snapshot <snapshot_id> --path <absolute_path>)
|
||||
abra app cp <backupbot_name> app:$filename .
|
||||
docker exec -it <container_id_or_name> backup create --host app
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Run restic
|
||||
Restore a snapshot:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
abra app run <backupbot_name> app bash
|
||||
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$(cat $AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_FILE)
|
||||
export RESTIC_PASSWORD=$(cat $RESTIC_PASSWORD_FILE)
|
||||
restic snapshots
|
||||
docker exec -it <container_id_or_name> backup restore --snapshot <snapshot_id> --target /path/to/restore
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
List snapshots:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker exec -it <container_id_or_name> backup snapshots
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
List files in a snapshot:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker exec -it <container_id_or_name> backup ls --snapshot <snapshot_id> --path /path/to/directory
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Download files, volumes, or secrets from a snapshot:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker exec -it <container_id_or_name> backup download --snapshot <snapshot_id> [--path /path/to/file] [--volumes] [--secrets]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: Make sure to replace `<container_id_or_name>` and `<snapshot_id>` with the appropriate values for your setup.
|
||||
|
||||
Remember to review and adjust the Docker Compose file and environment variables according to your specific requirements before running the backup commands.
|
||||
|
||||
When using `docker exec`, you don't need to specify the volume mounts or the Restic repository location as command-line arguments because they are already defined in the Docker Compose file and are available within the running container.
|
||||
|
||||
If you need to access the downloaded files, volumes, or secrets from the backup, you can use `docker cp` to copy them from the container to the host machine:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker cp <container_id_or_name>:/path/to/backup/file /path/on/host
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This allows you to retrieve the backed-up data from the container.
|
||||
|
||||
## Recipe Configuration
