creativeprojects/resticprofile v0.33.0

on GitHub

🌸 Easter release 🥚

This release delivers a preview of a new Client/Server mode, Fish shell completions, Windows scheduling enhancements, and several dependency and toolchain upgrades.

Please note the documentation for the Client/Server mode is not available yet.

New Features

Client/Server Mode [PREVIEW]

• Remote configuration delivery: resticprofile can now send a configuration profile to a remote server, enabling centralized management of backup profiles across multiple hosts.
• A new remote section in the configuration allows specifying the server address and credentials for the client/server communication.

Fish Shell Completions

• Fish shell support: Added shell completion script generation for the Fish shell (--fish-completion flag in the generate command).

Windows Scheduling: Start When Available

• New schedule-start-when-available option: When a scheduled task is missed (e.g. because the machine was off), Windows Task Scheduler will now start it as soon as the machine is available again.

Bug Fixes

Scheduling Fixes

• Battery power: Fixed a bug where Windows Task Scheduler tasks were incorrectly set to not start when running on battery power, regardless of battery state.
• launchd log paths: When schedule-log is configured in a profile, resticprofile now omits the StandardOutPath/StandardErrorPath entries from the launchd plist, preventing the creation of empty log files.

Maintenance and Toolchain

• Upgraded to Go 1.26
• Upgraded golangci-lint to v2

⚠️ Breaking changes ⚠️

This release introduces two breaking changes in resticprofile exit codes during a failure:

Failure because of low memory

When resticprofile failed to start because the memory remaining is under the threshold in the configuration, the exit code is now 5 and no longer 1

Failure to find any restic binary

When resticprofile failed to start because it couldn't find any restic binary, it now fails with exit code 6 and no longer 1
