rustic_core - library for fast, encrypted, deduplicated backups that powers rustic-rs
Library for fast, encrypted, and deduplicated backups
About
This library is powering rustic-rs. A backup tool that provides fast, encrypted, deduplicated backups. It reads and writes the restic repository format, which is described in their design document.
Note: rustic_core is in an early development stage and its API is subject to change in the next releases. If you want to give feedback on that, please open a thread in our discussions.

rustic_core = "0"
Crate features
This crate exposes a few features for controlling dependency usage:
- cli - Enables support for CLI features by enabling
mergeandclap
- merge - Enables support for merging multiple values into one, which
conflate dependency. This is needed for parsing commandline
arguments and merging them into one (e.g. config). *This feature is disabled
by default*.
- clap - Enables a dependency on the
clapcrate and enables parsing from
Examples
Example: Initializing a new repository
use rustic_backend::BackendOptions;
use rustic_core::{ConfigOptions, KeyOptions, Repository, RepositoryOptions};
use simplelog::{Config, LevelFilter, SimpleLogger};
use std::error::Error;
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> { // Display info logs let _ = SimpleLogger::init(LevelFilter::Info, Config::default());
// Initialize Backends let backends = BackendOptions::default() .repository("/tmp/repo") .to_backends()?;
// Init repository let repo_opts = RepositoryOptions::default().password("test"); let key_opts = KeyOptions::default(); let config_opts = ConfigOptions::default(); let repo = Repository::new(&repoopts, &backends)?.init(&keyopts, &configopts)?;
// -> use _repo for any operation on an open repository Ok(()) }
Example: Creating a new snapshot
use rustic_backend::BackendOptions;
use rustic_core::{BackupOptions, PathList, Repository, RepositoryOptions, SnapshotOptions};
use simplelog::{Config, LevelFilter, SimpleLogger};
use std::error::Error;
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> { // Display info logs let _ = SimpleLogger::init(LevelFilter::Info, Config::default());
// Initialize Backends let backends = BackendOptions::default() .repository("/tmp/repo") .repo_hot("/tmp/repo2") .to_backends()?;
// Open repository let repo_opts = RepositoryOptions::default().password("test");
let repo = Repository::new(&repo_opts, &backends)? .open()? .toindexedids()?;
let backup_opts = BackupOptions::default(); let source = PathList::from_string(".")?.sanitize()?; let snap = SnapshotOptions::default() .add_tags("tag1,tag2")? .to_snapshot()?;
// Create snapshot let snap = repo.backup(&backup_opts, &source, snap)?;
println!("successfully created snapshot:\n{snap:#?}"); Ok(()) }
Example: Restoring a snapshot
use rustic_backend::BackendOptions;
use rustic_core::{LocalDestination, LsOptions, Repository, RepositoryOptions, RestoreOptions};
use simplelog::{Config, LevelFilter, SimpleLogger};
use std::error::Error;
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> { // Display info logs let _ = SimpleLogger::init(LevelFilter::Info, Config::default());
// Initialize Backends let backends = BackendOptions::default() .repository("/tmp/repo") .to_backends()?;
// Open repository let repo_opts = RepositoryOptions::default().password("test"); let repo = Repository::new(&repo_opts, &backends)? .open()? .to_indexed()?;
// use latest snapshot without filtering snapshots let node = repo.nodefromsnapshotpath("latest", || true)?;
// use list of the snapshot contents using no additional filtering let streamer_opts = LsOptions::default(); let ls = repo.ls(&node, &streamer_opts)?;
let destination = "./restore/"; // restore to this destination dir let create = true; // create destination dir, if it doesn't exist let dest = LocalDestination::new(destination, create, !node.is_dir())?;
let opts = RestoreOptions::default(); let dry_run = false; // create restore infos. Note: this also already creates needed dirs in the destination let restoreinfos = repo.preparerestore(&opts, ls.clone(), &dest, dry_run)?;
repo.restore(restore_infos, &opts, ls, &dest)?; Ok(()) }
Example: Checking a repository
use rustic_backend::BackendOptions;
use rustic_core::{CheckOptions, Repository, RepositoryOptions};
use simplelog::{Config, LevelFilter, SimpleLogger};
use std::error::Error;
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> { // Display info logs let _ = SimpleLogger::init(LevelFilter::Info, Config::default());
// Initialize Backends let backends = BackendOptions::default() .repository("/tmp/repo") .to_backends()?;
// Open repository let repo_opts = RepositoryOptions::default().password("test"); let repo = Repository::new(&repo_opts, &backends)?.open()?;
// Check repository with standard options but omitting cache checks let opts = CheckOptions::default().trust_cache(true); repo.check(opts)?; Ok(()) }

Minimum Rust version policy
This crate's minimum supported rustc version is 1.88.0.
The current policy is that the minimum Rust version required to use this crate can be increased in minor version updates. For example, if crate 1.0 requires Rust 1.20.0, then crate 1.0.z for all values of z will also require Rust 1.20.0 or newer. However, crate 1.y for y > 0 may require a newer minimum version of Rust.
In general, this crate will be conservative with respect to the minimum supported version of Rust.
