## Historique du projet et usages

backupninja is a long-running Unix backup coordinator that turns system backups into ordered, scheduled configuration files under /etc/backup.d. Its value is orchestration: it wraps tools such as rdiff-backup, duplicity, borg, restic, database dumpers, and custom scripts behind one simple configuration style.

### Historique du projet

The official changelog records an initial release on 2004-10-08. By late 2004 it had moved to ini-style configuration, root-run handler scripts, a /usr/share/backupninja library directory, scheduled actions, system-report handlers, test mode, and /etc/backup.d permissions.

The 2005 releases added much of the shape administrators still recognize: hourly scheduling, numeric ordering fixes, duplicity and maildir handlers, subversion hotbackup, LDAP support, vserver support, mysql configuration improvements, and safer duplicity options.

Later releases modernized the handler ecosystem rather than replacing the core idea. The 2018 1.1.0 release added initial borgbackup support; the 2021 1.2.0 release introduced restic support, tests, a --version flag, and a Keep a Changelog project format; the 2023 1.2.2 release added Prometheus metrics for backup status.

### Historique d'adoption

backupninja has classic distribution-style adoption. The supplied package-manager facts list Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, and openSUSE packages, while the changelog references Debian bug numbers across many releases. Its audience is administrators who prefer auditable files and cron-like scheduling over a single monolithic backup product.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users configure global behavior in /etc/backupninja.conf and drop per-action files into /etc/backup.d. backupninja processes suffix-based handlers in alphabetical order, supports scheduled when clauses, can test runs without performing backups, and provides ninjahelper as a curses-based wizard for creating action configuration files.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

backupninja is package-nerd history in miniature: a small Debian-era shell tool that survived by being boring, extensible, and distribution-friendly. It is useful precisely because it delegates storage mechanics to packaged backup programs while standardizing scheduling, reporting, handler discovery, and config layout.

### Chronologie

- 2004: Initial release recorded in the official changelog.
- 2004: 0.3 rewrote scripts in bash and switched to ini-style configuration.
- 2005: 0.4.4 added duplicity, maildir, subversion hotbackup, and --run support.
- 2005: 0.6 added LDAP and vserver support plus expanded duplicity options.
- 2018: 1.1.0 added initial borgbackup support.
- 2021: 1.2.0 introduced restic support, tests, --version, and Keep a Changelog format.
- 2023: 1.2.2 added Prometheus metrics for backup status.

### Related projects

- The README lists rdiff-backup, duplicity, borgbackup, restic, mysqlhotcopy, mysqldump, PostgreSQL backup handling, Subversion backup support, and arbitrary shell scripts as backup action families. Its design is also adjacent to cron, sysvinit-style ordering, and distribution packaging.
