duplicity_ng cookbook

Cookbook for installing duplicity backup cronjobs

Supported Platforms

It should work on most Linux distributions.

Tested on Ubuntu and CentOS.

Note: On RHEL (CentOS) 5.x, make sure you have python, python::package or python::source in your run_list or include them in your wrapper cookbook. Otherwise the process may fail.

Warning: As of now, this cookook is not compatible to Chef-13. Pull-Requests welcome!

Usage

Attributes

See the attributes/default.rb file for default values.

# Path to duplicity executable (by default "/usr/bin/duplicity").
node['duplicity_ng']['path']

# Use pyhton pip to install duplicity dependencies (defaults to false)
node['duplicity_ng']['use_pip'] = true

# The following attributes are only used when using the "duplicity_ng::source" recipe
node['duplicity_ng']['source']['checksum'] #  duplicity remote source file checksum.
node['duplicity_ng']['source']['version']  #  duplicity version (only for "source" install method).

node['duplicity_ng']['source']['gnupg']['checksum'] #  GnuPGInterface remote source file checksum.
node['duplicity_ng']['source']['gnupg']['version']  #  GnuPGInterface version.

Recipes

package

Install duplicity using packages provided by the system. If you need newer versions, you can include duplicity_ng::ppa before running this recipe to setup the official duplicity ppa (on Ubuntu)

ppa

Setup Ubuntu repositories with latest version of duplicity. Run this recipe before you use the duplicity_ng::install recipe.

Helper recipes

These recipes you probably do not need to call manually. The providers run them in case they are required.

install_swift

Helper recipe, installs python-swiftclient. Uses the system package if node['duplicity_ng']['use_pip'] = false, otherwise uses pip.

install_paramiko

Helper recipe, installs python-paramiko. Uses the system package if node['duplicity_ng']['use_pip'] = false, otherwise uses pip.

install_boto

Helper recipe, installs python-boto. Uses the system package if node['duplicity_ng']['use_pip'] = false, otherwise uses pip.

install_azure

Helper recipe, installs MS Azure SDK on Python. Recommended option: default['duplicity_ng']['use_pip'] = true Note: Minimum python version: 2.7.0. Note: duplicity works well with Azure starting from 0.7 and up versions. Use it on your own risk.

install_ftp

Helper recipe, installs ncftp.

install_par2

Helper recipe, installs par2 for the par2 wrapper backend. Uses the system package if node['duplicity_ng']['use_pip'] = false, otherwise uses pip.

Providers

To use the providers, append the following to your metadata.rb

depends 'duplicity_ng'

duplicity_ng_cronjob

Installs a duplicity cronjob

duplicity_ng_cronjob 'myduplicity' do
  name 'myduplicity' # Cronjob filename (name_attribute)

  # Attributes for the default cronjob template
  interval         'daily'              # Cron interval (hourly, daily, monthly)
  duplicity_path   '/usr/bin/duplicity' # Path to duplicity
  configure_zabbix false                # Automatically configure zabbix user paremeters
  logfile          '/dev/null'          # Log cronjob output to this file
  lockfile         '/tmp/mylock.lock'   # Lockfile to use (defaults to /tmp/duplicity-$name)

  # duplicity parameters
  backend    'ftp://server.com/folder' # Backend to use (default: nil, required!)
  passphrase 'supersecret'             # duplicity passphrase (default: nil, required!)

  include        %w(/etc/ /root/ /var/log/) # Default directories to backup
  exclude        %w()                       # Default directories to exclude from backup
  archive_dir    '/tmp/duplicity-archive'   # duplicity archive directory
  temp_dir       '/tmp/duplicity-tmp'       # duplicity temp directory
  keep_full      5                          # Keep 5 full backups
  nice           10                         # Be nice (cpu)
  ionice         3                          # Ionice class (3 => idle)
  full_backup_if_older_than '7D'            # Take a full backup after this interval

  # Command(s) to run at the very beginning of the cronjob (default: empty)
  exec_pre %(if [ -f "/nobackup" ]; then exit 0; fi)

  # Command(s) to run after cleanup, but before the backup (default: empty)
  exec_before ['pg_dumpall -U postgres |bzip2 > /tmp/dump.sql.bz2']

  # Command(s) to run after the backup has finished (default: empty)
  exec_after  ['touch /backup-sucessfull', 'echo yeeeh']

  # In case you use Swift as you backend, specify the credentials here
  swift_username 'mySwiftUsername'
  swift_password 'mySwiftPassword'
  swift_authurl  'SwiftAuthURL'

  # In case you use S3 as your backend, your credentials go here
  aws_access_key_id     'MY_ACCESS_ID'
  aws_secret_access_key 'MY_SECRET'

  # In case you use Google Cloud Storage as your backend, your credentials go here
  gs_access_key_id     'MY_ACCESS_ID'
  gs_secret_access_key 'MY_SECRET'

  # In case you use MS Azure Blob Storage as your backend, your credentials go here
  azure_account_name 'MY_ACCOUNT_NAME'
  azure_account_key  'MY_ACCOUNT_KEY'

  # In case you use FTP/SFTP as your backend, your credentials go here
  # Note: username goes in the url like sftp://[email protected]/
  ftp_password 'MY_PASSWORD'

  # GPG options (compression and algorithms)
  cipher_algo    'aes256'
  digest_algo    'sha512'
  compress_algo  'bzip2'
  compress_level 6

  # Alternatively, you can specify your own template to use
  cookbook         'duplicity_ng'          # Cookbook to take erb template from
  source           'cronjob.sh.erb'     # ERB template to use
  variables        {}                   # Custom variables for ERB template
end

Feel free to specify additional (backend related) duplicity arguments to the backend attribute. For example, to use europe buckets with S3, use the following

duplicity_ng 's3 europe' do
  backend '--s3-use-new-style --s3-european-buckets s3+http://bucket[/prefix]'

  # You can also specify a specific server to use
  # backend '--s3-use-new-style --s3-european-buckets s3://server.com/bucket[/prefix]'

  # Additional configuration here, see example above
end

duplicity_ng_boto

Deploys boto configuration. With this you can skip keys in cronjob provider.

duplicity_ng_boto 'mybotoconfig' do
  # In case you use S3, your credentials go here
  aws_access_key_id     'MY_ACCESS_ID'
  aws_secret_access_key 'MY_SECRET'

  # In case you use Google Cloud Storage, your credentials go here
  gs_access_key_id     'MY_ACCESS_ID'
  gs_secret_access_key 'MY_SECRET'

  # In case you need additional options for Boto
  options {
    debug: 0,
    num_retries: 10,
    ec2_region_name: 'us-west-1',
    autoscale_endpoint: 'autoscaling.us-west-1.amazonaws.com'
  }

  # Alternatively, you can specify your own template to use
  cookbook  'duplicity_ng' # Cookbook to take erb template from
  source    'boto.cfg.erb' # ERB template to use
  variables {}
end

Checking status

Since version 1.1.2, you can run commands like collection-status conveniently.

# Source the configuration
. /etc/default/duplicity-$jobname   # on Debian familiy
. /etc/sysconfig/duplicity-$jobname # on RHEL familiy
. /etc/duplicity-$jobname           # On other families

$DUPLICITY_PATH collection-status "${DUPLICITY_ARGUMENTS[@]}"
