v0.25.0

💖 February release 💝

⚠️ Potential breaking change

The prometheus library used to send metrics to the proxy using protobuf.
By default it's now using the more widely used text format.

If you have any issue sending metrics to your proxy, you can revert to the previous behaviour by adding this option to your profile (it's not a global option)

my_profile:
  prometheus-push-format: protobuf

More information about the different formats: https://prometheus.io/docs/instrumenting/exposition_formats/#exposition-formats

New in this version

• fix for CVE-2023-48795
• new option prometheus-push-format with values text or protobuf (#281)
• new option to set log output in global section (#277)
• more control over the default systemd service files (#267)
• and bug fixes!

Thanks to all our contributors for the good work!

v0.22.0

⚠️ Breaking change

The default value of the job tag on prometheus gateway push has changed from command to profile.command.
But don't worry: you can easily revert back to the original value by adding this option in your configuration:

prometheus-push-job: "${COMMAND}"

Fixes:

• Complicated scheduling on Windows was sometimes setting up a random delay before starting a job

Changelog

• c00fc9a New option to specify Prometheus Pushgateway job name (#193)
• 0c7405f Templates: Add map/splitR/contains/matches (#197)
• 7545bbf Upgrade task scheduler library (#206)

v0.21.1

Bug fixes!

This small release fixes two regression bugs introduced in version 0.21.0

• the ~ was no longer replaced by the user's home directory for some flag (repository and others...)
• environment variables were no longer replaced by their value for some flag (repository and others...)

Thanks @jkellerer for the quick fixes 😉 👍🏻

New features from v0.21.0

This release adds a verification of all the flags permitted by restic. Only the flags compatible with your version of restic will be generated (prior to this version, any flag like unknown-flag would end up on the restic command line as --unknown-flag.

Also this version generates a JSON schema: this is the configuration schema which can auto-complete options, and verify that your configuration is correct. It works with any compatible editor for the JSON, TOML and YAML configuration file format. Thanks @jkellerer for the awesome work on this 🎉 . More information here.

Other nice feature is the introduction of the help command which works for both all the resticprofile and restic commands and flags. Try it out!

Changelog

• 487db0b Fix #187: homedir/env-vars in repo and other flags (#188)
• b78d1a0 Fix #189: completion of own commands (#190)
• b6a98ef Updated clog to 0.13 (#191)
