# PgBackRest backup wrapper

Wrapper to call the full/differential backup on all stanzas

## Options

```txt
-b (backuptype): full/diff
-s (stanza): override stanza name, must be in stanza.cfg file
-l list available stanza
-t test run
```

Either `-l` or `-b` option must be set

## Config

Two files must be created

### `config/pgbackrest.cfg`

Example file is `pgbackrest.sample.cfg`

This file holds the sudo_user for calling the commands

```ini
[PgBackRest]
sudo_user=postgres
```

### `config/stanza.cfg`

Example file is `stanza.sample.cfg`

This files holds the stanzas to backup

If the stanza has several repo settings as in "repo1-...", "repo2-..." then the repo to target can be listed in here by ":repo number"

```ini
[stanzas]
stanza_a
stanza_b:1
stanza_b:2
```
