Description

Very fast go program to securely archive and backup data from multiple servers.

This software compresses (backups) the remote folders and then downloads to local destination.

Installing Zipline (Linux)

$ curl -sSL https://git.io/zipline | bash

Usage

To create backups edit the config.yml file. An example of the config.yml file below:

- server:
    remoteSource: ~/example/directory/products
    host: 10.0.2.1
    privateKey: id_rsa_testing
    username: ubuntu
    localDestination: products
- server:
    remoteSource: ~/docker/apache/app/var/www/members
    host: 52.26.27.120
    privateKey: id_rsa_production
    username: root
    localDestination: members

The yml contains an array of servers with properties. Each server should contain:

• remoteSource This is the remote directory src
• host This is the IP address of the remote machine assuming the port is 22
• privateKey This is the name of the .pem file in the directory created by Zipline. The directory is called privateKeys
• username Username to log into the machine via ssh
• localDestination The child directory name of the location to store the backups in backups folder created by Zipline.

Creating more servers

To create more servers add another server definition to the list in the config.yml file. Fill in the properties according to your setup.

- server:
    remoteSource:
    host:
    privateKey:
    username:
    localDestination:
