Restic is a fast and secure backup program.
Installing
Add restic to environment.systemPackages like so:
environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
restic
];
Security Wrapper
If you want to back up your system without running restic as root, you can create a user and security wrapper to give restic the capability to read anything on the filesystem as if it were running as root. The following will create the wrapper at /run/wrappers/bin/restic
users.users.restic = {
isNormalUser = true;
};
security.wrappers.restic = {
source = "${pkgs.restic.out}/bin/restic";
owner = "restic";
group = "users";
permissions = "u=rwx,g=,o=";
capabilities = "cap_dac_read_search=+ep";
};
