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 instead of database.
- 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.
Missing features:
- Scheduling for background backups.
- Repo pruning
- Repo checking
- Save SSH keys with password. Store password in Keychain.
- Rule-based scheduling by time, Wifi SSID, etc.
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 build a binary package:
$ pyinstaller --clean --noconfirm vorta.spec
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.
