-# `finallycoffee.services.restic`
-
-Ansible role for backup up data using `restic`, utilizing `systemd` timers for scheduling.
-
-## Overview
-
-As restic encrypts the data before storing it, the `restic_repo_password` needs
-to be populated with a strong key, and saved accordingly as only this key can
-be used to decrypt the data for a restore!
-
-### Backends
-
-#### S3 Backend
-
-To use a `s3`-compatible backend like AWS buckets or minio, both `restic_s3_key_id`
-and `restic_s3_access_key` need to be populated, and the `restic_repo_url` has the
-format `s3:https://my.s3.endpoint:port/bucket-name`.
-
-#### SFTP Backend
-
-Using the `sftp` backend requires the configured `restic_user` to be able to
-authenticate to the configured SFTP-Server using password-less methods like
-publickey-authentication. The `restic_repo_url` then follows the format
-`sftp:{user}@{server}:/my-restic-repository` (or without leading `/` for relative
-paths to the `{user}`s home directory.
-
-### Backing up data
-
-A job name like `$service-postgres` or similar needs to be set in `restic_job_name`,
-which is used for naming the `systemd` units, their syslog identifiers etc.
-
-If backing up filesystem locations, the paths need to be specified in
-`restic_backup_paths` as lists of strings representing absolute filesystem
-locations.
-
-If backing up f.ex. database or other data which is generating backups using
-a command like `pg_dump`, use `restic_backup_stdin_command` (which needs to output
-to `stdout`) in conjunction with `restic_backup_stdin_command_filename` to name
-the resulting output (required).
-
-### Policy
-
-The backup policy can be adjusted by overriding the `restic_policy_keep_*`
-variables, with the defaults being:
-
-```yaml
-restic_policy_keep_all_within: 1d
-restic_policy_keep_hourly: 6
-restic_policy_keep_daily: 2
-restic_policy_keep_weekly: 7
-restic_policy_keep_monthly: 4
-restic_policy_backup_frequency: hourly
-```
-
-**Note:** `restic_policy_backup_frequency` must conform to `systemd`s
-`OnCalendar` syntax, which can be checked using `systemd-analyze calender $x`.
-
-## Role behaviour
-
-Per default, when the systemd unit for a job changes, the job is not immediately
-started. This can be overridden using `restic_start_job_on_unit_change: true`,
-which will immediately start the backup job if it's configuration changed.
-
-The systemd unit runs with `restic_user`, which is root by default, guaranteeing
-that filesystem paths are always readable. The `restic_user` can be overridden,
-but care needs to be taken to ensure the user has permission to read all the
-provided filesystem paths / the backup command may be executed by the user.
-
-If ansible should create the user, set `restic_create_user` to `true`, which
-will attempt to create the `restic_user` as a system user.
-
-### Installing
-
-For Debian and RedHat, the role attempts to install restic using the default
-package manager's ansible module (apt/dnf). For other distributions, the generic
-`package` module tries to install `restic_package_name` (default: `restic`),
-which can be overridden if needed.
