Another one simple bacula web reports interface.

I wasn't satisfied with current web interfaces for bacula. Cause they show default information which I can get from console and doesn't show really useful information (like big files in backup, long-running-backups etc).

So as a result I start writing own web reports interface.

#Requirements

• Enabled bacula history for jobs
• PostgreSQL database (I use postgres on all my servers with bacula)
• python Flask

#Documentation Instalation notes

#Notes

• requirements.txt contains modules which I use in my web interface
• css is based on SemanticUI (http://semantic-ui.com/)
• for database connection I use SQLAlchemy

git clone https://github.com/l13t/pyWBacula.git

cd pyWBacula
virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate

pip install -r requirements.txt

After downloading you should rename next configuration files:

cp config.py.example config.py cp app/config.py.example app/config.py

• DB_URI:

DB_URI = 'postgresql://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<db_name>?client_encoding=utf8'

Currently only PostgreSQL supported.

You can use run.py to start application:

./run.py

Or you can use gunicorn:

venv/bin/gunicorn --bind 0.0.0.0:15995 run:app

To run on startup just do next steps:

cp utils/pywbacula /etc/init.d/
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/pywbacula && chown root:root /etc/init.d/pywbacula
update-rc.d pywbacula defaults
update-rc.d pywbacula enable

Edit /etc/init.d/pywbacula to change WWW_HOME and APP_USER variables.

In utils you can find scripts which would help you create graph reports with Grafana+InfluxDB.

• utils/bacula_to_influx - custom cronjob to push data to InfluxDB
• utils/results_to_influx.sh - script which push data to InfluxDB
• utils/grafana_panel_template.json - dashboard template for Grafana to show results
