tarback

Create a tar archive from remote resources.

This is more or less equivalent to ssh host tar files | xz | split output-file and its reverse.

Two plugins are available:

  • ssh handles all the ssh command and filename escaping necessary
  • docker instead of backing up a remote volume, back up a docker volume

usage

tarback -p ssh,docker -s 'ssh $user@$host' create "$remote_volume_name" "$local_tar_archive"

Create a split tar archive of the remote volume, with the extensions part{a-z,a-z}.

tarback -p ssh,docker -s 'ssh $user@$host' restore "$local_tar_archive" "$remote_volume_name"

Restore the backup to the remote docker volume.
