# DRestic
<img src="logo.svg" width="120" markdown="1">
Automated encrypted backups to MEGA using restic.
## Setup
```sh
git clone https://github.com/casparvitch/drestic
cd drestic
make install-deps
make setup-user # or setup-system for servers
```
Enter MEGA credentials and restic password when prompted. **Store the restic password safely.**
## Usage
```sh
make help # see all commands
make status # check backup status
make backup-now # run backup immediately
make snapshots # list backups
```
**Recover files:**
```sh
mkdir ~/restore
# Replace with your repo path from ~/.config/restic/env
RESTIC_PASSWORD_FILE=~/.config/restic/password restic mount ~/restore --repo rclone:backup_remote:/drestic_backups_hostname
# Browse ~/restore/snapshots/latest/
umount ~/restore
```
## Configuration
Edit backup paths: `~/.config/restic/paths` (user) or `/etc/restic/paths` (system)
Edit excludes: `~/.config/restic/excludes`
Add notifications: `make update-gotify`
## Manual Checks
**Automated:** Metadata-only weekly checks (catches 95% of issues)
**Manual verification:**
```sh
# Quick metadata check (~50MB RAM, 1-2 min)
source ~/.config/restic/env && restic check --repo "$RESTIC_REPOSITORY" --password-file "$RESTIC_PASSWORD_FILE"
# Light data check (~200MB RAM, 5-15 min)
source ~/.config/restic/env && restic check --repo "$RESTIC_REPOSITORY" --password-file "$RESTIC_PASSWORD_FILE" --read-data-subset 0.1%
# Heavy data check (~500MB+ RAM, 30+ min)
source ~/.config/restic/env && restic check --repo "$RESTIC_REPOSITORY" --password-file "$RESTIC_PASSWORD_FILE" --read-data-subset 1%
```
**From another machine:**
```sh
# Setup: install restic, rclone
rclone config create backup_remote mega user EMAIL pass PASSWORD
echo "PASSWORD" > ~/.restic_password && chmod 600 ~/.restic_password
restic check --repo rclone:backup_remote:/drestic_backups_HOSTNAME --password-file ~/.restic_password --read-data-subset 0.1%
```
**When:** Monthly 0.1% checks, quarterly 1% checks, or troubleshooting.
## Troubleshooting
```sh
make unlock-repo # fix locked repository
make logs # check recent logs
rclone ls backup_remote: # test MEGA connection
```
