SFTP backend support

Open d3473r opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

Hi,

are there any plans to support the restic sftp backend? Currently I am running restic against a hetzner sftp storage box and it would be awesome if I could simply use stash with it.

Regards, D3473R

Hi @D3473R! we have acknowledged your feature requested. Currently, we are focusing on 0.9.0 release. It surely won't be part of that. However, we may consider it for 0.10.x+. Please, provide us additional details about SFTP. Also, please let us know if there is a way to deploy SFTP server locally.

SFTP is a standard protocol/server supported by SSH server. Which is present on all *nix systems. It should be relatively easy do so. Also Restic supports the SFTP backend.

The restic docs about the sftp backend are here: https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/030_preparing_a_new_repo.html#sftp To test sftp locally you could use this docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/atmoz/sftp/

Thank you @D3473R. We will look into this.

Any updates on this ? I'm also looking at sftp, since it would open the door to "poor-mans" backup backends.
