@jcotton42 can you confirm this was absent from your PR. Since you mentioned the use case, it seems like you have included it.
It was something I meant to address, but never got around to doing so. Passing the exit code would likely suffice, though I think the set -e
at the start of backup-loop.sh
might have to be removed? Or at least disabled for the line that runs the backup. Since iirc that makes bash bail on the first command that dies.
Cool. Just wanted to check. I believe putting the invocation in a conditional should satisfy the -e
constraint.
@Fysac if you're interested in PR'ing this, then that would be great.
It would be nice for
POST_BACKUP_SCRIPT
to be able to detect when a backup failed, so that it can send out a notification in case of an error (e.g., an unhandled restic state). This was one of the use cases for the feature originally described in #89, but I don't see any way for a post-backup script to currently tell if something went awry.I think all this would take is passing the exit code (and possibly some stderr output?) from the backup stage as an argument to the script on this line: https://github.com/itzg/docker-mc-backup/blob/037f49dfbbe60b261a4433e811d6ac631f280df4/backup-loop.sh#L499
