restimac.sh

Script to backup your home directory using restic on macOS, but only when you're connected to your specific WiFi network. This script will also ignore TimeMachine directory exclusions. Use always for SSID if you want to always trigger a backup.

Usage

restic init --repo sftp://server/Volumes/Backup/laptop`
echo 'password-from-above' > backup.pass` && chmod 600 backup.pass
./restimac.sh MY-WIFI sftp:@server:/Volumes/Backup/laptop/restic backup.pass
