Support (arbitrary) restic options

Open MostFrabjous opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

There doesn't seem to be a way to use arbitrary restic options, like --one-file-system or --no-lock, especially the former is very useful to me.

I suggest to either add a list, like CMD_ARGS to the config file, or add support the specific options like ONE-FILE-SYSTEM=True.

Hey @Henry78

it took me a while but I finally overhauled the code a bit and included such an option now with just adding runrestic backup -- --one-file-system where obviously the last argument can be anything.

It's beta at the moment but if you could test, I'd like to hear your feedback

Hi!

Wonderful!

Unfortunately I'm currently moving and only have limited time and my personal infrastructure is unavailable. But I look forward to test this in two or three weeks. And definitely will report back!

How can e.g. --ignore-inode be used?

runrestic -- --ignore-inode leads to running backup, prune, check etc. with --ignore-inode which is not intended.
