# Borgend

This is a retrying and queuing scheduler as well as a MacOS tray icon for [BorgBackup](https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/).

The lead author is Tuomo Valkonen (<tuomov@iki.fi>).

## Installation

You will need to install the following non-standard Python packages:

 - [rumps](https://github.com/jaredks/rumps) (Ridiculously Uncomplicated macOS Python Statusbar apps)
 - [keyring](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/keyring)

## Usage

### Passphrases

Passphrases are stored in the OS X Keychain (or whatever the keyring package support on other systems). In the Borgend configuration file, you only configure the ‘account’ of the of the password using `keychain_account` keyword of each backup set. The ‘service’ of the password has to be `borg-backup`. To add a password into the keychain for the ‘my-borg-backup’, you may use:

    security add-generic-password -a my-borg-backup -s borg-backup -w [PASSWORD]
