Installation

============

|
||||
|project_name| pyinstaller binary installation requires:
|
||||
There are different ways to install |project_name|:
|
||||
|
||||
* Linux: glibc >= 2.13 (ok for most supported Linux releases)
|
||||
* MacOS X: 10.10 (unknown whether it works for older releases)
|
||||
* FreeBSD: 10.2 (unknown whether it works for older releases)
|
||||
|
||||
|project_name| non-binary installation requires:
|
||||
|
||||
* Python_ >= 3.2.2
|
||||
* OpenSSL_ >= 1.0.0
|
||||
* libacl_ (that pulls in libattr_ also)
|
||||
* liblz4_
|
||||
* some python dependencies, see install_requires in setup.py
|
||||
|
||||
General notes
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
You need to do some platform specific preparation steps (to install libraries
|
||||
and tools) followed by the generic installation of |project_name| itself:
|
||||
|
||||
Below, we describe different ways to install |project_name|.
|
||||
|
||||
- **dist package** - easy and fast, needs a distribution and platform specific
|
||||
binary package (for your Linux/*BSD/OS X/... distribution).
|
||||
- **pyinstaller binary** - easy and fast, we provide a ready-to-use binary file
|
||||
that just works on the supported platforms
|
||||
- **pypi** - installing a source package from pypi needs more installation steps
|
||||
and will need a compiler, development headers, etc..
|
||||
- **distribution package** - easy and fast if a package is available for your
|
||||
Linux/BSD distribution.
|
||||
- **PyInstaller binary** - easy and fast, we provide a ready-to-use binary file
|
||||
that comes bundled with all dependencies.
|
||||
- **pip** - installing a source package with pip needs more installation steps
|
||||
and requires all dependencies with development headers and a compiler.
|
||||
- **git** - for developers and power users who want to have the latest code or
|
||||
use revision control (each release is tagged).
|
||||
|
||||
**Python 3**: Even though this is not the default Python version on many systems,
|
||||
it is usually available as an optional install.
|
||||
|
||||
Virtualenv_ can be used to build and install |project_name| without affecting
|
||||
the system Python or requiring root access.
|
||||
Installation (Distribution Package)
|
||||
-----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Important:
|
||||
If you install into a virtual environment, you need to **activate**
|
||||
the virtual env first (``source borg-env/bin/activate``).
|
||||
Alternatively, directly run ``borg-env/bin/borg`` (or symlink that into some
|
||||
directory that is in your PATH so you can just run ``borg``).
|
||||
Using a virtual environment is optional, but recommended except for the most
|
||||
simple use cases.
|
||||
Some Linux and BSD distributions might offer a ready-to-use ``borgbackup``
|
||||
package which can be installed with the package manager. As |project_name| is
|
||||
still a young project, such a package might be not available for your system
|
||||
yet. Please ask package maintainers to build a package or, if you can package /
|
||||
submit it yourself, please help us with that!
|
||||
|
||||
The llfuse_ python package is also required if you wish to mount an
|
||||
archive as a FUSE filesystem. Only FUSE >= 2.8.0 can support llfuse.
|
||||
* On **Arch Linux**, there is a package available in the AUR_.
|
||||
|
||||
You only need **Cython** to compile the .pyx files to the respective .c files
|
||||
when using |project_name| code from git. For |project_name| releases, the .c
|
||||
files will be bundled, so you won't need Cython to install a release.
|
||||
If a package is available, it might be interesting to check its version
|
||||
and compare that to our latest release and review the :doc:`changes`.
|
||||
|
||||
Platform notes
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
FreeBSD: You may need to get a recent enough OpenSSL version from FreeBSD ports.
|
||||
|
||||
Mac OS X: You may need to get a recent enough OpenSSL version from homebrew_.
|
||||
|
||||
Mac OS X: You need OS X FUSE >= 3.0.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Installation (dist package)
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
Some Linux, BSD and OS X distributions might offer a ready-to-use
|
||||
`borgbackup` package (which can be easily installed in the usual way).
|
||||
|
||||
As |project_name| is still relatively new, such a package might be not
|
||||
available for your system yet. Please ask package maintainers to build a
|
||||
package or, if you can package / submit it yourself, please help us with
|
||||
that!
|
||||
|
||||
If a package is available, it might be interesting for you to check its version
|
||||
and compare that to our latest release and review the change log (see links on
|
||||
our web site).

||||

||||

|
||||
Installation (PyInstaller Binary)
|
||||
---------------------------------
|
||||
For some platforms we offer a ready-to-use standalone borg binary.
|
||||
|
||||
It is supposed to work without requiring installation or preparations.
|
||||
The |project_name| binary is available on the releases_ page for the following
|
||||
platforms:
|
||||
|
||||
Check https://github.com/borgbackup/borg/releases for available binaries.
|
||||
* **Linux**: glibc >= 2.13 (ok for most supported Linux releases)
|
||||
* **Mac OS X**: 10.10 (unknown whether it works for older releases)
|
||||
* **FreeBSD**: 10.2 (unknown whether it works for older releases)
|
||||
|
||||
These binaries work without requiring specific installation steps. Just drop
|
||||
them into a directory in your ``PATH`` and then you can run ``borg``. If a new
|
||||
version is released, you will have to manually download it and replace the old
|
||||
version.

||||

||||

Installing the Dependencies
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
# Python 3.x (>= 3.2) + Headers, Py Package Installer, VirtualEnv
|
||||
apt-get install python3 python3-dev python3-pip python-virtualenv
|
||||
To install |project_name| from a source package, you have to install the
|
||||
following dependencies first:
|
||||
|
||||
# we need OpenSSL + Headers for Crypto
|
||||
apt-get install libssl-dev openssl
|
||||
* `Python 3`_ >= 3.2.2. Even though Python 3 is not the default Python version on
|
||||
most systems, it is usually available as an optional install.
|
||||
* OpenSSL_ >= 1.0.0
|
||||
* libacl_ (that pulls in libattr_ also)
|
||||
* liblz4_
|
||||
* some Python dependencies, pip will automatically install them for you
|
||||
* optionally, the llfuse_ Python package is required if you wish to mount an
|
||||
archive as a FUSE filesystem. FUSE >= 2.8.0 is required for llfuse.
|
||||
|
||||
# ACL support Headers + Library
|
||||
apt-get install libacl1-dev libacl1
|
||||
In the following, the steps needed to install the dependencies are listed for a
|
||||
selection of platforms. If your distribution is not covered by these
|
||||
instructions, try to use your package manager to install the dependencies. On
|
||||
FreeBSD, you may need to get a recent enough OpenSSL version from FreeBSD
|
||||
ports.
|
||||
|
||||
# lz4 super fast compression support Headers + Library
|
||||
apt-get install liblz4-dev liblz4-1
|
||||
After you have installed the dependencies, you can proceed with steps outlined
|
||||
under :ref:`pip-installation`.
|
||||
|
||||
# if you do not have gcc / make / etc. yet
|
||||
apt-get install build-essential
|
||||
Debian / Ubuntu
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
# optional: FUSE support - to mount backup archives
|
||||
# in case you get complaints about permission denied on /etc/fuse.conf:
|
||||
# on ubuntu this means your user is not in the "fuse" group. just add
|
||||
# yourself there, log out and log in again.
|
||||
apt-get install libfuse-dev fuse pkg-config
|
||||
Install the dependencies with development headers::
|
||||
|
||||
# optional: for unit testing
|
||||
apt-get install fakeroot
|
||||
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-dev python3-pip python-virtualenv
|
||||
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev openssl
|
||||
sudo apt-get install libacl1-dev libacl1
|
||||
sudo apt-get install liblz4-dev liblz4-1
|
||||
sudo apt-get install build-essential
|
||||
sudo apt-get install libfuse-dev fuse pkg-config # optional, for FUSE support
|
||||
|
||||
In case you get complaints about permission denied on ``/etc/fuse.conf``: on
|
||||
Ubuntu this means your user is not in the ``fuse`` group. Add yourself to that
|
||||
group, log out and log in again.
