arq_restore for arq6? #47

Open bmatheny opened 4 years ago

bmatheny commented 4 years ago

I'm trying to use arq_restore to restore a backup taken using arq6. Backed up to aws, no encryption password. When I use arq_restore, no folder UUIDs can be found so I can't restore.

Is this a known issue?

Thanks in advance.

Trialing Arq 6 now and having a functioning opensource restore tool is important (in case of Arq going dark for any reason).

@sreitshamer Please confirm if Arq 6 support is planned for arq_restore, including for encrypted backups and S3 Deep Archive.

We're updating it for Arq 6 data.

Hey @arqbackup. It seems like neither the arq_restore utility nor the textual documentation on the format has been upgraded to the new version, and it's been some time. I still love the app, and you've likely had your hands full with the release of v7, but I would definitely sleep more soundly if this tool and the docs were updated. Is their any sort of timeline for when we might expect this?

Any updates on this issue? I am evaluating Arq as a backup solution, and having an open-source restore tool would be great.

When are you going to update this for Arq 7? This is the only thing stopping me from upgrading.

arqbackup commented 3 years ago

Sorry for the delay. It's on our list of things to do. Just so you know, the Arq 7 app will work for restoring without any license code, so you can always use that to restore instead of this arq_restore utility. And the data format is documented here: https://www.arqbackup.com/documentation/arq7/English.lproj/dataFormat.html
