Resticprofile Versions Save

Here it is!

It's been a while since we released a new version 😞 The resticprofile team has been busy preparing some really cool new features:

• simplify the command line by allowing the use of [profile].[command] - Thanks @Syphdias for the PR #89
• shell completion (for bash, can also be used by zsh with bash compatibility) - Thanks @jkellerer for the PR #90
• run a shell command to use as a stdin input (like mysqldump) - Thanks @jkellerer for the PR #98
• run a shell command in the background when non fatal errors are detected from restic - Thanks @jkellerer for the PR #99

and a lot of bug fixes 👍🏻

⚠️ Important

Version 0.15 fixed some issues with escaping parameters to the restic command line. If you've used any of these characters in file or directory names in your configuration, please make sure your backup is still working as expected: space, *, ?, \, [, ', ".

If for some reason the fix broke your configuration, there's a new flag legacy-arguments that you can activate in the global section to revert back to the broken implementation:

global:
    legacy-arguments: true

New features in 0.15:

• add .Hostname in configuration template (#55)
• add description field in profile section
• add support for prometheus file export and push gateway
• hide confidential values in output (#58)
• add .TmpDir variable to configuration template (#62)

This version also includes fixes for:

• resolving special paths starting with a ~ (unixes only)
• warn when the restic binary was not found at the specified location (but still found at a different location)
• resolve glob expressions in backup sources (#63)

Changelog

Bug fix release

This release changes the way the restic binary is searched:

• restic binary path in global configuration can now contain the ~ character like ~restic/bin/restic
• if you specified a path in the global configuration and it cannot find the file, a warning will be displayed and resticprofile will keep trying to find a suitable binary

Changelog

4686dd2 use shell to resolve special paths with ~ 823304a warning when the restic-binary was not found
