Installation instructions¶
Requirements¶
- Python 3.x
- https://www.smartmontools.org for hardware tests
Install¶
success-backup-check can be installed using pip:
$ sudo python3 -m pip install git+git://github.com/linuxluigi/success-backup-check.git
This command will fetch the archive and its dependencies from the internet and install them.
Or download it from git and execute:
$ git clone git@github.com:linuxluigi/success-backup-check.git
$ cd success-backup-check
$ python setup.py install --user
You might prefer to install it system-wide. In this case, skip the --user
option and execute as superuser by prepending the command with sudo.
Troubleshoot¶
Only tested on linux & mac, I don’t know this will work correctly on windows machines.
Windows users may find that these command will only works if typed from Python’s installation directory.
Some Linux distributions (e.g. Ubuntu) install Python without installing pip.
Please install it before. If you don’t have root privileges, download the
get-pip.py script at https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py and execute it as
python get-pip.py --user.
