Dup-composer development update

After one week of hiatus from the development of Dup-composer, I am back again with a status update. In this post, I am sharing the main new features and changes delivered last week and some of the issues I have run into with you. I will also touch on the challenges I want to solve in the next stage.

The dup-composer dry run tryout

Last week, I have managed to add some missing bits, chiefly docstrings, to the prototype of dup-composer, but I didn't finish and share the post with you then, as we were moving from our weekend house that took two days of work. I am sharing it today however. Now you can do dry runs, that print the Duplicity commands to be executed with the given configuration. In this blog post I demonstrate how the tool can be configured, what features are covered, the caveats, and finally the next features I will be rolling out.

dup-composer Duplicity frontend development status

My mini project called dup-composer that is aimed to develop a simple configuration based CLI frontend for Duplicity is in progress. I have kicked off actual development last week and want to share with you a progress update. TL;DR I will publish the initial prototype or alpha version in the next 1-2 days. You can find details about my progress, findings and decisions in this post.
