|
||||
|
||||
To install borgmatic, first [install
|
||||
Borg](https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html), at least
|
||||
version 1.1. (borgmatic does not install Borg automatically so as to avoid
|
||||
conflicts with existing Borg installations.)
|
||||
|
||||
Then, [install pipx](https://pypa.github.io/pipx/installation/) as the root
|
||||
user (with `sudo`) to make installing borgmatic easier without impacting other
|
||||
Python applications on your system. If you have trouble installing pipx with
|
||||
pip, then you can install a system package instead. E.g. on Ubuntu or Debian,
|
||||
run:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo apt update
|
||||
sudo apt install pipx
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Root install
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to run borgmatic on a schedule with privileged access to your
|
||||
files, then you should install borgmatic as the root user by running the
|
||||
following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo pipx ensurepath
|
||||
sudo pipx install borgmatic
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Check whether this worked with:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo su -
|
||||
borgmatic --version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If borgmatic is properly installed, that should output your borgmatic version.
|
||||
And if you'd also like `sudo borgmatic` to work, keep reading!
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Non-root install
|
||||
|
||||
If you only want to run borgmatic as a non-root user (without privileged file
|
||||
access) *or* you want to make `sudo borgmatic` work so borgmatic runs as root,
|
||||
then install borgmatic as a non-root user by running the following commands as
|
||||
that user:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pipx ensurepath
|
||||
pipx install borgmatic
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This should work even if you've also installed borgmatic as the root user.
|
||||
|
||||
Check whether this worked with:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
borgmatic --version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If borgmatic is properly installed, that should output your borgmatic version.
|
||||
You can also try `sudo borgmatic --version` if you intend to run borgmatic
|
||||
with `sudo`. If that doesn't work, you may need to update your [sudoers
|
||||
`secure_path` option](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sudo).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
