Faulty statement about "Unchanged" repos about ghbackup HOT 10 CLOSED

Hi @jorinvo

Thanks, I give it a try today and keep you posted.

Kind regards

In the upper snipped you have $slack_hook in the lower $SLACK_HOOK. I guess I would need to see more of the code that you use to help you here..

hi @kMikaZu! I was wondering the same thing myself! Just never got around looking into it :) I think I solved it. But I had to remove the total object part from the info.

Could you v.1.12.0?
Thank you!

We are sending the statistics via a Slack WebHook. At first we used the option from your tutorial and that works, but the text doesn't contain the statistics.

Code from your tutorial:

/opt/ghbackup -secret $github_token $backup_dir \
  && curl -X POST --data-urlencode \
  "payload={\"text\": \"Successful GitHub backup.\"}" \
  $slack_hook

On this GitHub page, you are explaining how to send more statistics to Slack, like this:

ghbackup -secret $GITHUB_TOKEN DIR \
  | tail -n1 \
  | xargs -I%% curl -s -X POST --data-urlencode 'payload={"text": "%%"}' $SLACK_HOOK

But that doesn't seem to work on Debian 9. Keeps returning the following error: curl: no URL specified!

What would you suggest when using the script on a Debian machine?

Thanks

the error message sounds like you didn't set the SLACK_HOOK variable? Maybe you set slack_hook instead? Make sure all variables exist and cases match :)

Hi

The Slack Hook is defined, since the code from your tutorial works but the code from your GitHub Docs returns that error.

Thanks

Ok, that one I misunderstood! You were right about it, it works. Case-Sensitive :-)
And the log mentions the updated Repos now. Seems to work ok, but will do some more testing. Is it possible to add even more statistics (a complete backup-report of all the repos?)?

Thanks!

from ghbackup.

If you want to post all output to Slack and not only the statistics, you can skip the line | tail -n1 \. Not sure if that is enough information. Let me know what other kind of statistics you are looking for!

from ghbackup.

@kMikaZu if you have any suggestions to other statistics/details we should output, let me know! Can open a new issue for it 🙂

from ghbackup.

The LFS issue is more important at this time, afterwards we can pick up the statistics. But thanks a lot!!
