restic itself is a popular backup tool which works pretty reliable and efficiently. I'm running several backups in my homelab on a time schedule. In general there shouldn't be any issue with that but how can I be sure?
That's where this dashboard comes in. It's meant to visually show if a backup ran in a specified timeframe. If it ran it's green and otherwise it will simply be red, so I might need to check in on that.
Another reason for this dashboard is the fact that I like to dabble in other unfamiliar technologies as I'm primarily a Java/Kotlin/Spring dev. So this little dashboard serves as a useful playground and a way to practice other stuff.
-
I myself am neither a python nor a frontend developer. So the codebase is based upon a very small skillset.
-
Everything is based on Linux as it's meant to be used for myself. However I appreciate any kind of feedback to improve or fix my codebase.
-
The UI isn't very appealing as I clearly have no talent for visual stuff. Suggestions are welcome.
This repository contains the following directories:
This is a simple directory with several bash scripts used to setup some restic repositories which is useful for testing purposes.
Further information can be found here: README.md
The backend has been written in python and provides a basic REST server as well as the frontend code.
Further information can be found here: README.md
The frontend has been written using svelte and especially Svelte 5 and it's runes which makes life for frontend developers much easier.
Further information can be found here: README.md
The install directory is just a collection of scripts and files allowing to configure a Linux service making use of this dashboard.
