Backup::Duplicity::YADW - Yet Another Duplicity Wrapper

VERSION

version 0.12

SYNOPSIS

 $yadw = Backup::Duplicity::YADW->new;

 $yadw = Backup::Duplicity::YADW->new(
              conf_dir   => '/etc/mydir',
              conf_file  => 'other.conf',
              dry_run    => 0,
              use_syslog => 1,
              verbose    => 0
              );
             
 $yadw->backup();
 $yadw->verify();
 $yadw->expire();

 $yadw->restore("/my/file/location");

DESCRIPTION

This is a wrapper for Duplicity. I found my command lines for invoking Duplicity getting quite lengthy and wanted a way to persist my configurations in an intuitive manner. I looked at several other Duplicity wrappers, but none of them quite fit what I wanted. So Backup::Duplicity::YADW was born.
