This is just a small setup to help me back up my important files to S3. I use Nix to source s3cmd, with a small handful of symbolic links and helper scripts to keep my storage drives sensible.
When setting up a new backup link use a symbolic link, ln -s -t Pictures /media/uno/Pictures
.
- Drop in to the
nix-shell
- Run the s3cmd program
- s3cmd sync --exclude '/.' --skip-existing --recursive ./backup-links/Pictures s3://mhudson-backup/backups/
