CLAUDE.md previously said the repo was encrypted, which was true when written but no longer matches this deployment - the operator chose to stay unencrypted, so the recurring "not encrypted" warning is expected behavior, not something to fix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

## What this is
|
|
|
|
Backup + disaster-recovery tooling for a Linux server: Borg (offsite-synced via rclone) backing up `/home/srv/files/content`, including MariaDB running in Docker. The repo is unencrypted by deliberate operator choice on this deployment — `borg-backup.sh` prints a warning about it every run, which is expected, not a bug to fix. Plain bash, no build system, no CI, no test suite. `README.md` is the quickstart; `RUNBOOK.md` is the full operational doc (setup, deploy, cron, day-2 ops, recovery).
|
|
|
|
- `borg-backup.sh` — daily backup orchestrator (cron). Never stops MariaDB: `dump_db.sh`'s `--single-transaction` dump is consistent on its own, and the raw data directory is excluded from the archive via a `.nobackup` marker file.
|
|
- `dump_db.sh` — per-database `mysqldump`/`mariadb-dump` with atomic staging/swap. Deployed to `/opt/backup-agent/dump_db.sh` (borg-backup.sh invokes it at that exact path). It defaults to writing dumps next to itself, so borg-backup.sh always overrides `DUMP_DIR` to keep dumps inside `$TARGET` where borg can see them.
|
|
- `restore.sh` — recovery CLI: `full` (disaster recovery), `db <name>`, `file <path>`, `--list-archives`, all supporting `--dry-run`.
|
|
|
|
## Global conventions (don't re-derive these)
|
|
|
|
- `TARGET=/home/srv/files/content`, `REPO=/home/srv/files/backups/borg-2025`, `DB_CONTAINER=mariadb`
|
|
- `BORG_PASSPHRASE_FILE=/root/.borg-passphrase` (chmod 600, read via `BORG_PASSCOMMAND`)
|
|
- Backup DB user `backup` (password file `/root/.mariadb-backup.pw`, limited SELECT/LOCK grants) is separate from restore's `root` creds (`MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD` env or `/root/.mariadb-root.pw`) — restore needs CREATE/DROP privileges the backup user doesn't have.
|
|
- Dumps live at `mariadb/dump/*.sql` plus `00-users-and-grants.sql`, inside `$TARGET`.
|
|
- `restore.sh` and `borg-backup.sh` share one lockfile (`/var/lock/borg-backup.lock` via `flock -n 9`) so a restore and the nightly backup can never run concurrently.
|
|
- Destructive-op safety: `full` refuses a non-empty `$TARGET` without `--force`; `db` requires typed dbname confirmation unless `--yes`; every mode supports `--dry-run`.
|
|
- `resolve_archive()` in `restore.sh` deliberately does *not* filter archives by hostname (unlike backup's prune/list, which does) — disaster recovery may run from a different host than made the backup.
|
|
- Logs: `/var/log/borg/{backup,restore}-*.log` (override with `BORG_BACKUP_LOGFILE` / `RESTORE_LOGDIR` for local testing).
|
|
|
|
## Verifying changes
|
|
|
|
No test suite. Verify script changes with `bash -n <script>.sh` (syntax) and `shellcheck <script>.sh`, and by tracing the change against `RUNBOOK.md`'s documented behavior. Both `borg-backup.sh` and `restore.sh` prepend a hardened `PATH` (`/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:...:$PATH`) and require `flock`, `borg`, `docker`, and a `mysql`/`mariadb` client to actually exercise end-to-end — this only really runs on the target Linux server, not locally on macOS (`flock(1)` doesn't even exist there).
|
|
|
|
## Conventions
|
|
|
|
- Conventional commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `docs:`, `chore:`). Direct commits to `master`, no PR workflow.
|
|
- New restore/backup logic should mirror the existing style in `borg-backup.sh`/`restore.sh`: `log()`/`step()`/`die()`/`run_cmd()` helpers, `set -euo pipefail`, config constants up top.
|
|
- Run `shellcheck` on any script you touch before considering it done.
