* going from s3 to file target wasn't working
* use 'local' in the config instead of a file: url, for the local target, so it is not path-specific
* break out the S3 fields since users can't be expected to know how to form a URL
* use boto to generate a list of S3 hosts
* use boto to validate that the user input for s3 is valid
* fix lots of html errors in the backup admin
Backup location and maximum age can now be configured in the admin panel.
For now only S3 is supported, but adding other duplicity supported backends should be straightforward.
* use the AES256 cipher, be explicit that only the first line of secret_key.txt is used, and sanity check that the passphrase is long enough
* change overship of the encrypted files to the user-data user
* simplify variable names in management/backup.py
* although I appreciate long comments I am trimming the commentary about the backup migration
* revise the control panel template to not refer to the old unencrypted files
* add CHANGELOG entry
[Josh merged some subsequent commits:]
* Guard via idempotency against termination between migration operations
* Final corrections and tweaks
* Pass passphrase through to all duplicity calls
Empirical evidence (a failed cron job) shows that cleanup requires the
passphrase (so it presumably needs to decrypt metadata), and though
remove-older-than has been working fine without it, it won't do any harm
to set it in case that changes or there are any special cases.
* Add back the archive-dir override but locate it at STORAGE_ROOT/backup/cache
Duplicity will manage the process of creating incremental backups for us.
Although duplicity can both encrypt & copy files to a remote host, I really
don't like PGP and so I don't want to use that.
Instead, we'll back up to a local directory unencrypted, then manually
encrypt the full & incremental backup files. Synchronizing the encrypted
backup directory to a remote host is a TODO.
