BACKUP SCRIPT

Complete Backup Script

This is your complete "all-in-one" backup script!

How to Use:

1. Save the Script

Create the directory and save the script

mkdir -p ~/scripts
cd ~/scripts
git clone https://github.com/icenoir/rclone-protondrive-script-helper.git
cd rclone-protondrive-script-helper

Make it executable

chmod +x backup-proton-complete.sh

2. Customize the Backup Directories

Edit the BACKUP_SOURCES section in the script:

BACKUP_SOURCES=(
    "/opt/etc:backup-etc"                    # Your current directories
    "$HOME/.env:backup-env"                  # Add more directories as needed
    "$HOME/docker:backup-docker"             # Format: source:destination-name
)

3. Initial Configuration

Make sure rclone is configured

rclone config

Test the script

./backup-proton-complete.sh config    # Show configuration
./backup-proton-complete.sh test      # Test the connection

Start the daemon

./backup-proton-complete.sh start

Check status

./backup-proton-complete.sh status

Run the backup

./backup-proton-complete.sh backup

Stop the daemon

./backup-proton-complete.sh stop

./backup-proton-complete.sh logs

Show complete help

./backup-proton-complete.sh help

Automation (Optional):

Add to cron for automatic backups

crontab -e
