# kopia
## Overview
The kopia stack provides a self-contained backup and deduplication service for NetGrimoire. It consists of the kopia service, which runs on docker4, and is exposed via caddy's reverse proxy.
The kopia stack is a Docker Swarm service that provides snapshot backup and deduplication capabilities in NetGrimoire.
## Architecture
| Service | Image | Port | Role |
|---------|-------|------|------|
- **Host:** docker4
- **Network:** netgrimoire
- **Exposed via:** https://kopia.netgrimoire.com
- **Exposed via:** https://kopia:51515,Internal only
- **Homepage group:** Backup
| Service | URL | Purpose |
|---------|-----|---------|
https://kopia.netgrimoire.com | / | Primary access point for kopia |

## Build & Configuration
### Prerequisites
- Docker and Docker Swarm installed on docker4
No specific prerequisites are required for this stack.
### Volume Setup
```bash
mkdir -p /DockerVol/kopia/config
chown -R 1964:1964 /DockerVol/kopia/config
chown -R kopia:kopia /DockerVol/kopia/config
mkdir -p /DockerVol/kopia/cache
chown -R kopia:kopia /DockerVol/kopia/cache
mkdir -p /DockerVol/kopia/cert
chown -R kopia:kopia /DockerVol/kopia/cert
```
### Environment Variables
```bash
# generate: openssl rand -hex 32
PUID=1964
PGID=1964
TZ=America/Chicago
@ -56,63 +61,67 @@ docker stack services kopia
```
### First Run
```bash
cd services/swarm/stack/kopia
./deploy.sh
```
After deploying the service, ensure that the Docker volumes are mounted and the environment variables are set.

## User Guide
### Accessing kopia
| Service | URL | Purpose |
|---------|-----|---------|
https://kopia.netgrimoire.com | / | Primary access point for kopia |
- **kopia**: https://192.168.5.10:51515, access kopia dashboard
### Primary Use Cases
- Backup and restore data using the kopia service.
Use the kopia service to manage snapshot backups and deduplication for NetGrimoire.
### NetGrimoire Integrations
- The kopia service integrates with other NetGrimoire services through environment variables and labels, including Uptime Kuma monitoring and Caddy reverse proxying.
This service integrates with other NetGrimoire services through environment variables and labels.

## Operations
### Monitoring
kuma.*:
```bash
docker stack services kopia
<docker service logs commands>
kuma monitor -t tcp://kopia:51515
```
### Backups
Critical vs reconstructable /DockerVol/ paths are not explicitly documented. Please refer to the environment variables for configuration details.
Critical backup paths are stored in the `/DockerVol/kopia/config` volume. Ensure that this volume is mounted correctly during deployment.
### Restore
To restore a backup, run the following command:
```bash
cd services/swarm/stack/kopia
./deploy.sh
```

## Common Failures
- Symptom: kopia service is unavailable.
- Cause: Incorrect environment variable settings or network issues.
- Fix: Verify environment variable settings and ensure the kopia service is up and running.
| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---------|-------|-----|
- Service not starting | Incorrect environment variables | Check and correct .env file |
- Docker volume mounting error | Insecure mount options | Update docker-stack.yml to include secure mount options |
