NINJAHELPER - A menu driven curses-based interface to walk you through backupninja configuration.
SYNOPSIS
ninjahelper
DESCRIPTION
Ninjahelper is an helper script to walk you through configuration of the backup tasks for backupninja. It is a curses based "wizard" with
an intuitive menu-driven interface.
ADDING NEW HELPERS
To add an additional 'wizard' to ninjahelper, follow these steps:
(1) create a file in the handlers directory (eg. /usr/share/backupninja) using the .helper extension. For example, if you wish to create
a helper for the handler "blue", create the file /usr/share/backupninja/blue.helper.
(2) next, add your helper to the global HELPERS variable and define the main function for your helper (the function name is always
<helper>_wizard). To use the blue.helper as an example: HELPERS="$HELPERS blue:description_of_this_helper"
blue_wizard() {
... do work here ...
}
(3) look at the existing helpers to see how they are written. Try to re-use functions, such as the dialog functions that are defined in
easydialog.sh, or the vserver functions defined in lib/vserver.
(4) test, re-test, and test again. Try to break the helper by going backwards, try to think like someone who has no idea how to config-
ure your handler would think, try to make your helper as simple as possible. Walk like a cat, become your shadow, don't let your
senses betray you.
