...if you have an example of how you set this up for yourselves, you could share it here...
Sure....my use case is that I keep a lot of pdfs in google drive and want to back them up, but not all the other stuff that is in there. They are accessible through fuse in /home/gina/gdrive. My solution was to create the file /etc/restic/backup_files_from
containing one line:
/home/gina/gdrive/**/*.pdf
Then I modified restic_backup.sh, adding this just before BACKUP_TAG
is set:
BACKUP_FILES_FROM=""
[ -f /etc/restic/backup_files_from ] && BACKUP_FILES_FROM+="--files-from /etc/restic/backup_files_from"
and I modified the invocation of restic backup
, adding
$BACKUP_FILES_FROM \
after the BACKUP_EXCLUDES
part.

Hey,
I've not used the --files-from
way myself but I can see how it can be useful. For this repo, I think it might be a bit too specific, as I intent that this repo is more general "tutorial" style to inspire people to make the full solution they need themselves.
However if you have an example of how you set this up for yourselves, you could share it here, and I could include a link in the README for those who are interested in this way of using restic :)
