Allow to chose the repository path. #20

Closed nicofrand closed 3 years ago

Hi,

thanks a lot for this script, I do hope I'll be able to make it work as expected and finally be able to backup my data.

I am using borgbase.com as a provider (instead of using a "server B" width borgserver_ynh installed). They provide a repo path like user@user.repo.borgbase.com:repo.

To be able to instantiate the creation I had to edit this line: and replace the ~/backup/ by ~/repo/.

It would be great if the user could select its own path (like for the server name etc.) during the installation.

Have you tried with ssh://user@user.repo.borgbase.com/~/repo/ ?

"~/backup/" is hardcoded cause the goals is to simplify as possible. I can probably put a hidden question in manifest to ask for the directory. It will be possible to define it with cli but not with webadmin.

Note: I work on a core integration of borg repo. So this app is not my big priority (it should be replaced by the new core features)

Well, now it seems to work, I would have bet it did not.

Here is a log though, :repo seems to mean ./repo which is different from ~/repo :

The repository at location ssh://user@user.repo.borgbase.com/~/repo was previously located at ssh://user@user.repo.borgbase.com/./repo

"~/backup/" is hardcoded cause the goals is to simplify as possible. I can probably put a hidden question in manifest to ask for the directory. It will be possible to define it with cli but not with webadmin.

This would be a great first step while the core integration arrives. I'll do a PR once I have found how to hide a question in the manifest.

I edited the ticket to only keep the repository path selection.

I exactly had the same issue (also using borgbase). The hidden option would be highly appreciated :).

Also thanks for this app!

Hi @zamentur,

can you explain what you mean by "hidden option" please? I only see optional fields (except passwords but uhh): https://yunohost.org/#/packaging_apps_manifest_en.

Thanks in advance

Fixed in #71

nicofrand commented 3 years ago

Thanks for the fix!

For any one wondering how to use the fix, you'll need to set your repo URL in the settings with yunohost app setting repository "ssh://user@user.repo.location.com/~/path".

Thanks. There are some typo, the correct command is: 

yunohost app setting borg repository -v "ssh://user@user.repo.location.com/~/path"
