NAME
borg-placeholders - Details regarding placeholders
DESCRIPTION
Repository (or Archive) URLs, --prefix, --glob-archives, --comment and
--remote-path values support these placeholders:
{hostname}
The (short) hostname of the machine.
{fqdn} The full name of the machine.
{reverse-fqdn}
The full name of the machine in reverse domain name notation.
{now} The current local date and time, by default in ISO-8601 format.
You can also supply your own format string, e.g.
{now:%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S}
{utcnow}
The current UTC date and time, by default in ISO-8601 format.
You can also supply your own format string, e.g. {utc-
now:%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S}
{user} The user name (or UID, if no name is available) of the user run-
ning borg.
{pid} The current process ID.
{borgversion}
The version of borg, e.g.: 1.0.8rc1
{borgmajor}
The version of borg, only the major version, e.g.: 1
{borgminor}
The version of borg, only major and minor version, e.g.: 1.0
{borgpatch}
The version of borg, only major, minor and patch version, e.g.:
1.0.8
If literal curly braces need to be used, double them for escaping:
borg create /path/to/repo::{{literal_text}}
Examples:
borg create /path/to/repo::{hostname}-{user}-{utcnow} ...
borg create /path/to/repo::{hostname}-{now:%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S} ...
borg prune --prefix '{hostname}-' ...
NOTE:
systemd uses a difficult, non-standard syntax for command lines in
unit files (refer to the systemd.unit(5) manual page).
When invoking borg from unit files, pay particular attention to es-
caping, especially when using the now/utcnow placeholders, since
systemd performs its own %-based variable replacement even in quoted
text. To avoid interference from systemd, double all percent signs
({hostname}-{now:%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S} becomes {host-
name}-{now:%%Y-%%m-%%d_%%H:%%M:%%S}).
