BashGuardian 🛡️ (Experimental Project)*

BashGuardian is a powerful bash script for backups and encryption on Unix-like (Linux & macOS) systems. It provides an easy-to-use and secure way to protect your important files and data. 🗂️🔒

_{* This is currently an experimental phase where the primary focus is on making the system functional and establishing a practical and logical pathway that aligns with both my vision and the project's goals. It might contain errors, bugs, etc. Many other non-core elements of the project are considered secondary.}

How-to 🗝️📂

First download the main script:

curl -O  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/felipealfonsog/BashGuardian/main/backups_stable.sh

then,

chmod +x backups_stable.sh

and execute it:

./backups_stable.sh

_{NOTE: Check out the crontab.txt file to adapt your crontab with your system. You can also adapt the code according to your needs.}

Decrypt and Untar 🗝️📂

To decrypt and untar your files, you can use the following commands:

gpg --decrypt --batch --passphrase passphrase encrypted_file.tar.gz.gpg | tar xzvf -

gpg --decrypt --batch --passphrase "passphrase" "backup_20230723_000101.tar.gz.gpg" | tar xzvf - --directory "$HOME/Documents/backedup-unencryped

To extract a simple tarball, e.g.

tar -xvzf backups_macos_20231107_050001.tar.gz.

Command:

tar -xvzf
