Replace embedded heredocs in the three backup service installers with
cp from versioned source files in extras/:
extras/backup_kopia.sh — Kopia worker (was inline in services/backup.sh)
extras/backup_borg.sh — Borg worker (was inline in services/borg-backup.sh)
extras/backup_gaming.sh — gaming saves worker (was inline in services/gaming-backup.sh)
extras/restore_kopia.sh — unified Kopia restore (multi-dest + single-dest)
extras/restore_borg.sh — unified Borg restore with destination picker
Each installer now does `cp extras/<script>.sh $DIR/<script>.sh` instead of
writing the script inline. Workers and restore scripts are now readable in the
repo rather than buried in heredocs.
Restore scripts are installed flat into the service directory root:
~/docker/backup/backup_kopia.sh ~/docker/backup/restore_kopia.sh
~/docker/borg-backup/backup_borg.sh ~/docker/borg-backup/restore_borg.sh
~/docker/gaming-backup/backup_gaming.sh ~/docker/gaming-backup/restore_kopia.sh
The new restore scripts handle destination selection internally, so a single
script replaces the old per-destination restore/<dest>/ layout.
Also fixes `local` used outside a function in restore_kopia.sh and
restore_borg.sh (destination picker loop), and removes the now-superseded
extras/restore_kopia_backup.sh and extras/restore_borg_backup.sh.

New service: borg-backup (backup group)
- Installs borgbackup from apt
- Same coverage as Kopia backup: full ~/docker/<service>/ snapshots
- Minecraft: flush world (save-all), archive, no downtime
- All others: stop → archive → restart
- Multi-destination support with per-service routing
- SSH remote repos supported natively (user@host:/path)
- Per-service pruning: keep-daily/weekly/monthly
- repo compact after each run
- Systemd timer (with cron fallback)
- repokey-blake2 encryption; key export reminder in summary
- worker.sh: run / list / info subcommands
New restore helper: extras/restore_borg_backup.sh
- Installed to ~/docker/borg-backup/restore/<dest>/
- Interactive: lists services → pick archive → inspect (/tmp) or restore in-place
- In-place restore: stops container, moves current data aside, extracts, restarts
- Old data kept as .pre-restore-DATE with rollback instructions printed
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
Place datapacks_<ver>.zip or crafting_tweaks_<ver>.zip in extras/datapacks/
before running the Minecraft installer and they will be detected automatically.
- Pattern match: *datapack* → unzip into datapacks-download/; *craft* → copy as-is
- Version extracted from filename; compared against selected MC version at picker step
- Early banner notice when ZIPs are absent (where to put them and naming convention)
- If ZIPs present: show found files + version check, offer "Use pre-packaged VT?" (default y)
- Accepting skips the individual datapack picker entirely
- Manual fallback instructions updated to hint at extras/datapacks/ for next time
- Removed broken VT share# links from manual instructions
- Added extras/datapacks/README.md (naming convention + download sources)
- Added .gitignore: extras/datapacks/*.zip never committed
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
- backup: renamed from disaster-backup; full ~/docker/<service>/ snapshots,
Minecraft flushed not stopped, everything else stop/snap/start for DB
consistency; backup.conf / restore/ layout; post-install-backup timer
- gaming-backup: renamed from backup; frequent game-save snapshots (Minecraft
world data, emulator saves, Steam, Wolf state) with no service downtime;
defaults to hourly schedule; separate gaming-kopia repo + gaming-backup timer
- Deleted services/disaster-backup.sh
- README: updated backup row to reflect new names
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
Minecraft instances are flushed to disk (save-all) and snapshotted while
the server keeps running — no player disruption. All other services stop
briefly for filesystem-consistent database snapshots, then restart.
Also update file header, install banner, schedule description, and README.
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
- minecraft: prompt for world seed on new installs (skipped if world already exists); SEED env var wired into docker-compose.yml
- disaster-backup: new service that stops each Docker service, snapshots the full ~/docker/<service>/ directory (config + data + databases), then restarts it — multi-destination support so different services can go to different drives/repos; one restore_kopia_backup.sh per destination
- README: update backup row to list both backup and disaster-backup
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
- extras/restore_kopia_backup.sh: interactive restore tool — lists all
snapshot sources, pick source + snapshot, choose inspect (restore to
/tmp) or restore-in-place (moves current data aside as .pre-restore-DATE
for easy rollback, auto-stops/starts the associated Docker service)
- services/backup.sh: copy restore script to ~/docker/backup/ during
install; update summary to show restore command
- CLAUDE.md: add note to update README services table when adding a
service; add Authelia section documenting which services have built-in
auth, the import-authelia Caddy pattern for no-auth services, and
remember_me_duration config for kiosk/persistent sessions
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
Documents all packages installed by the base service, and adds a
Backup section covering Kopia, Borg, plain rsync, rsync --link-dest
(versioned snapshots with original folder structure), and rsnapshot —
with guidance on when to use each.
https://claude.ai/code/session_019XgsQ13XKm4Zj3cNsDNwHj
Keep only the two base install scripts (24.04, 26.04), the modular
system (setup.sh, lib/, services/, extras/, bootstrap.sh), and
LICENSE/README/VERSION. Everything else was superseded.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
- SCP example used $(whoami) which evaluates to root; use $ACTUAL_USER instead
- VT_VERSION stripped to major.minor (e.g. 1.21) so the picker version
prompt is correct; previous awk printed the full patch string (1.21.4)
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
When you open the USB folder in the file manager, you're already there.
Right-click → Open in Terminal → sudo bash bootstrap.sh, or double-click
bootstrap.sh → Run in Terminal → sudo prompt. No /media/whoami/DRIVENAME
path hunting required.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
The real workflow is: GitHub Code → Download ZIP → unzip → copy to USB.
No git, no auth, no file manager tricks. On the target machine: ls to find
the drive name, then sudo bash /media/$(whoami)/DRIVENAME/...bootstrap.sh.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
bootstrap.sh: add self-elevation — if not root, re-exec under sudo.
Double-clicking the script in GNOME ("Run in Terminal") now prompts for
the sudo password automatically, no extra commands needed.
README: rewrite USB section around the real workflow:
- clone with "Open in Terminal" from the file manager sidebar
- Option A: right-click folder → Open in Terminal → sudo ./setup.sh
- Option B: double-click bootstrap.sh → "Run in Terminal?" → sudo prompt
- note on nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal and exFAT vs ext4
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
README: rewrite USB section with three steps:
1. Auto-detect USB mount point and clone repo onto it
2. Install nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal for right-click "Open in Terminal"
3. Double-click "Run Setup.desktop" to launch wizard with sudo (no terminal needed)
Run Setup.desktop: launcher file included in the repo so it's present on the
USB automatically. Uses %k to find its own location, cds to that directory,
and runs sudo ./setup.sh in a terminal window.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
The USB section was documenting the wrong thing. Replace with instructions
for carrying the repo on a USB stick and running setup.sh directly from it
on any fresh Ubuntu machine — no internet required for the repo.
Covers: cloning/copying to USB, finding the mount point on the target
machine, running setup from USB, exFAT vs ext4 trade-offs, fixing
permissions after copy.
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
- lib/common.sh: require_docker now installs Docker CE + Compose plugin
via get.docker.com instead of erroring out if Docker is missing.
Also adds the calling user to the docker group automatically.
- README.md: fix 'tells you how to install Docker' → 'installs Docker
automatically'; add full USB drive usage section (mount, fstab,
DOCKER_DIR config, moving existing data, tips).
- services/minecraft.sh: replace single-source whitelist import with the
multi-source UI from the updated setup-minecraft.sh — collects players
from the current instance, saved backup files, and other servers' backups;
assigns letters to each source so you can import by letter (all from that
source) or by number (specific player).
https://claude.ai/code/session_017WJtGcE5jjerAQCUBWUE3H
Added exec sudo bash self-elevation so bootstrap.sh works correctly when
double-clicked ("Run in Terminal") without the user needing to prefix sudo.
If already root, the check is a no-op.
Removed bootstrap.desktop — too fragile across desktop environments.
README now covers both "Open in Terminal" and double-click paths.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
The previous USB instructions assumed git was available. Added step-by-step
for the no-git path: GitHub ZIP download → unzip → copy to USB → run
bootstrap.sh. Includes the Ubuntu auto-mount path tip for finding the
drive name. Folder name note (ubuntu-post-install-main from ZIP) added.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Three usage modes now documented and implemented:
1. Public repo: curl | sudo bash (unchanged)
2. Private repo, USB: copy whole repo to thumb drive, run bootstrap.sh
from it — detects setup.sh alongside itself, copies to ~/ubuntu-post-install,
execs setup.sh. No git auth, no internet needed for the scripts.
3. Private repo, PAT: bootstrap.sh --pat ghp_xxx — PAT stripped from
stored remote URL after clone so it is not saved in plain text.
USB mode is the recommended approach for private repos: clone once,
put on a drive, run on every new machine.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
bootstrap.sh: one curl | sudo bash to get and run on a fresh box —
installs git if missing, clones/updates the repo, execs setup.sh.
README.md: complete rewrite. The old README described the monolithic
script (--restore, --migrate flags, Samba, NetBird, etc.) which no
longer exists. New README covers quick start, usage modes, service
table, layout, and managing installed services.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Both silent-send and immich already use NodeSource (not Ubuntu repos).
Node 24 is the current active LTS; 22 moves to maintenance in 2025.
Minimum version checks (>=18 and >=20) are unchanged — both services
accept any sufficiently recent Node.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Probe for --break-system-packages support once (pip --help, cached in
_PIP_HAS_BSP) rather than comparing Ubuntu version numbers. Works on any
pip >= 22.3 regardless of distro; older pip (Ubuntu 22.04, pip 22.0)
falls back to --user only, which is correct there since PEP 668 isn't
enforced on 22.04 anyway.
The flag name is scary but harmless with --user: installs go to ~/.local/
which apt never manages regardless.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
pip3 install --user alone does not reliably bypass PEP 668 in all 24.04
environments. --break-system-packages (pip 22.3+) is the correct override.
Flag is only added when ubuntu_version_ge "24.04" so it does not run on
Ubuntu 22.04 where pip 22.0 ships and the flag is not yet supported.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
lib/common.sh:
- detect_os(): reads /etc/os-release into OS_DISTRO, OS_VERSION,
OS_CODENAME globals (exported, auto-called on source)
- ubuntu_version_ge(): numeric version comparison helper
- pip_user_install(): central wrapper for pip3 install --user so any
future version-specific flags are in one place
setup.sh:
- Both header banners now show detected OS line (e.g., "Ubuntu 24.04 (noble)")
- First-run path warns if not Ubuntu or < 24.04
services/sky-cam.sh, services/sync-cc.sh:
- Replace inline pip3 invocations with pip_user_install helper
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
On second run, is_installed base (command -v ncdu) detects that base
packages are already present and jumps straight to the service menu,
skipping the required-setup banner, confirm prompt, and apt-get install.
The first-run path is unchanged; `sudo ./setup.sh base` forces reinstall.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Introduces a one-time configuration wizard (sudo ./setup.sh configure)
that stores SITE_TZ, SITE_DOMAIN, and SITE_CADDY_NET in ~/docker/.config.
Every service now uses these as prompt defaults so the user types common
values once instead of re-answering the same questions for each service.
- lib/common.sh: load_site_config / save_site_config; auto-loads on source;
backward-compat BASE_DOMAIN alias kept for old .config files
- setup.sh: run_site_configure wizard; first-run offer after base install;
`sudo ./setup.sh configure` command to update defaults at any time
- 14 services: TZ_VAL now honours SITE_TZ, falling back to /etc/timezone
- 3 inline-heredoc services (filebrowser, homeassistant, ntfy): same fix
- authelia: SITE_TZ/SITE_DOMAIN as prompt defaults; SITE_CADDY_NET replaces
hardcoded caddy_net throughout (env, compose patch, network creation)
- minecraft, frigate-audio: simplify BASE_DOMAIN read to use SITE_DOMAIN
- sky-cam: SITE_TZ as default for timezone prompt
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Three bugs fixed:
1. git clone ran as root — SSH key lookup failed because user's keys are in
~user/.ssh/, not /root/.ssh/. Both SSH and PAT clones now run via
sudo -u ACTUAL_USER so git uses the right key and the clone is owned
correctly without a separate chown step.
2. 2>/dev/null on git clone swallowed all error output — errors are now
shown so authentication failures are diagnosable.
3. No re-run handling — trying to clone into an existing dir silently
failed. Now detects .git, offers git pull instead.
Also: checks for SSH key existence before attempting SSH clone, and prints
actionable guidance (ssh-keygen, ssh-add, ssh -T git@github.com) on failure.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
sky-cam (cameras/non-docker):
Clones outis1one/sky-cam via bootstrap.sh to ~/sky-cam. Prompts for
latitude, longitude, timezone, camera names, BASE_DIR, and optional
Mattermost webhook. Patches sky-cam.conf and installs systemd user
timers via the repo's install.sh. Produces sunrise clips, Four Seasons
timelapse, moon-track, and monthly moon-phase images.
frigate-audio (cameras/docker):
Full stack from outis1one/frigate_w_audio: Frigate 0.17 NVR +
Mosquitto MQTT broker + frigate-notify → ntfy push alerts. Audio-ready
config template with face recognition and LPR pre-configured. Prompts
for camera credentials, media storage path (supports drive detection),
MQTT password (auto-generated), and ntfy server. Bootstraps the
Mosquitto passwd file. Detector choice: CPU / USB Coral / PCIe Coral.
Hardcoded media path from upstream replaced with a configurable prompt.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y4dMKtkqkpvmgDKoRdzhTG
Adds sync_cc as an extras service module:
- extras/sync_cc.py: the Python tool (3196 lines) — 8 modes: SYNC,
GENERATE, BATCH, RENAME (TMDB), EXTRACT, REMUX, EMBED, BURNSUBS
- services/sync-cc.sh: installs system deps (python3, ffmpeg, mkvtoolnix,
ccextractor), pip installs openai-whisper + ffsubsync, copies the script
to ~/sync-cc/, prompts for TMDB API key → .env, creates /usr/local/bin/sync-cc
wrapper so users run it from any directory containing video/SRT files
Heavy optional deps (easyocr, pgsreader) are installed on first use by the
script itself. GPU (CUDA/MPS) is used automatically if detected.
