Vorta - A Boring GUI for BorgBackup

Vorta is a GUI for BorgBackup. It's in alpha status and currently has the following features:

  • Select and create SSH keys without using the Terminal
  • Securely save repo password in Keychain.
  • Initialize new remote Borg repositories
  • Create new Borg snapshots (backups) from local folders
  • Mount existing snapshots with FUSE
  • Settings stored in sqlite
  • Exclude options/patterns.
  • Rule-based scheduling by time, Wifi SSID, etc.
  • Scheduling for background backups.
  • Tests (partly)

Missing features:

  • Repo pruning
  • Repo checking

Download

The app package under Releases should include everything. Just download, unzip and run.

Development

Conda is used for dependency management. Create a new virtual env using:

$ conda env create environment.yml

Qt Creator is used to edit views. Install using Homebrew and then open the .ui files in vorta/UI:

$ brew cask install qt-creator
$ brew install qt

To run directly:

PYTHONPATH=src python -m vorta

To build a binary package:

$ pyinstaller --clean --noconfirm vorta.spec

Testing (work in progress)

Tests are in the folder /tests. Run them with PYTHONPATH=src pytest. Testing happens at the level of UI components. Calls to borg are mocked and can be replaced with some example json-output.

Why the Name?

Vorta are a race referenced in Star Trek. They serve the Dominion and are replaced by their clones if they die. Just like our backups.
