v1.0.0
1.0.0 (2024-05-20)
Hey all, I'm excited to announce the 1.0.0 release of Backrest. This release makes large strides to normalize Backrest's config format and operation model for upcoming plans e.g. multihost management and support for restic check. Your config and operations will be migrated automatically. After upgrading you will be prompted to set a permanent "instance ID" next time you open the Web UI. This instance ID will be included on snapshots (created-by: tag) going forward and will identify the backrest install that created a snapshot when multiple installations share a single repo.
New features are added including:
- New scheduling options for plans e.g. max frequency hours, and max frequency days
- Ability to better schedule prune operations e.g. cron schedules are now supported
- A limited shell for running restic commands in your repo is included in the WebUI, this provides a convenient way to run arbitrary snapshot management operations or commands not supported by backrest.
- Stats view is migrated to a new (and improved) chart library.
And finally, this release continues with stability improvements addressing a number of UI and backend bugs.
