*Borg-Space* is an accessory for Emborg_.  It reports on the space consumed by 
your *BorgBackup* repositories.  You can get this information using the
``emborg info`` command, but there are several reasons to prefer *Borg-Space*.

#. *Borg-Space* is capable of reporting on many repositories at once.
#. The *Emborg* *info* command gives a great deal of information,
   whereas *Borg-Space* only reports the space consumed by the repository,
   so is much more compact.
#. The report is user customizable.
#. *Borg-Space* can record the size of your repositories each time it is run
   so you can track the space requirements over time.
#. Finally, *Borg-Space* can graph the recorded values.

To show the size of one or more repositories, simply run::

    # borg-space home
    home: 12.81 GB

This reports on the latest repository size and, of course, assumes that you have 
already run *emborg create*.  You must not use the ``--fast`` command line 
option when running *create*.

You can specify any number of repositories, and they can be composites.  In the 
following example, *home* is an alias that expands to *borgbase* and *rsync*::

    > borg-space home cache
    borgbase: 2.44 GB
    cache: 801 MB
    rsync: 2.81 GB

You can specify repositories that are owned by others or that are on remote 
machines.  In this case you will need permission to read the *Emborg* data 
directory for the repository. Specifically, 
❬host❭:~❬user❭/.local/share/emborg/❬config❭.latest.nt must be accessible.
❬config❭ is the name of the *Emborg* configuration to be reported on, ❬host❭ is 
the name of the host on which the *Emborg create* command was run, and ❬user❭ is 
the name of the user that ran the command.

To specify these repositories, a special naming scheme is used::

    ❬config❭@❬host❭~❬user❭

This is referred to as the full repository specification, or repository spec.  
Both ``@❬host❭`` and ``~❬user❭`` are optional, ❬host❭ is not needed when 
referring to the local host and ❬user❭ is not needed when referring to the 
current user.  Thus the *Emborg* configuration named *primary* owned by *root* 
on the host with the SSH name *neptune* is accessed with::

    # borg-space primary@neptune~root
    primary@neptune~root: 57.74 GB


Usage
-----

*Borg-Space* supports the following command line arguments::

    Usage:
        borg-space [--quiet] [--style <style>] [--record] [<spec>...]
        borg-space [--graph] [--svg <file>] [--log-y] [--record] [<spec>...]

    Options:
        -r, --record                 save the result
        -q, --quiet                  do not output the size message
        -s <style>, --style <style>  the report style
                                     choose from compact, table, tree, nt, json
        -g, --graph                  graph the previously recorded sizes over time
        -l, --log-y                  use a logarithmic Y-axis when graphing
        -S <file>, --svg <file>      produce plot as SVG file rather than display it

Repository specs take the form ``❬name❭`` or ``❬config❭[@❬host❭][~❬user❭]``.  
Items in brackets are optional and ❬name❭ is the name given for a repository the
repositories setting.

The available styles are *compact*, *table*, *tree*, *nt* or *nestedtext*, or 
*json*.  If you specify something other than the these, what you give is taken 
to be a *compact format* specification.

Results are saved to ~/.local/share/borg-space/<full_spec>.nt.
Settings are held in ~/.config/borg-space/settings.nt.


Settings
--------

You can create a NestedText_ settings file to specify default behaviors and 
define composite repositories.  For example::

    default repository: home
    report style: tree
    compact format: {name}: {size:{fmt}}.  Last back up: {last_create:ddd, MMM DD}.  Last squeeze: {last_squeeze:ddd, MMM DD}.
    table format: {host:<8} {user:<5} {config:<9} {size:<8.2b} {last_create:ddd, MMM DD}
    table header: HOST     USER  CONFIG    SIZE     LAST BACK UP
    report fields: size last_create last_squeeze
    tree report fields: size
    date format: D MMMM YYYY
    size format: .b

    repositories:
        # define some convenient aliases
        root: root~root
        dev: root@dev~root
        mail: root@mail~root
        files: root@files~root
        bastion: root@bastion~root
        media: root@media~root
        web: root@web~root
        cluster: home@cluster

        # define useful combinations
        home:
            children: rsync borgbase cluster
        servers:
            children:
                - dev
                - mail
                - files
                - bastion
                - media
                - web
        all:
            children: home servers root

default repository:
    The name of the repository to be used if none are given on the command line.

report style:
    The report style to be used if none is specified on the command line.  
    Choose from *compact*, *table*, *tree*, *nestedtext* or *nt*, or *json*.

compact format:
    The format to be used for the line when the requested report style is 
    *compact*.  The *name*, *spec*, *full_spec*, *config*, *host*, *user*, 
    *size*, *fmt*, *last_create*, *last_prune*, *last_compact* and 
    *last_squeeze*  fields are replaced by the corresponding values.  *name* is 
    the name given the repository in the *repositories* setting.  *spec* is the 
    specification given as specified, and *full_spec* is the full specification 
    (any pieces missing from *spec* are filled in).  If a name is not available, 
    *name* becomes the same as *spec*.  *last_squeeze* is simply the later of 
    *last_prune* and *last_compact*.  *size* is a QuantiPhy_ *Quantity* and the 
    *last_* fields are all Arrow_ objects (see the example in the next section 
    for examples on how to specify formatting on *QuantiPhy* and *Arrow* 
    objects).  The remaining field values are strings.

    The default is::

        {name}: {size:{fmt}}

table format:
    The format to be used for the line when the requested report style is 
    *table*.  The *name*, *spec*, *host*, *user*, *config*, *size*, *fmt*, 
    *last_create*, *last_prune*, *last_compact* and *last_squeeze*  fields will 
    be replaced by the corresponding values.  *last_squeeze* is simply the later 
    of *last_prune* and *last_compact*.  *size* is a QuantiPhy_ *Quantity* and 
    the *last_* fields are all Arrow_ objects.  The remaining field values are 
    strings.

    The default is::

        {host:8} {user:8} {config:8} {size:<8.2b}  {last_create:ddd, MMM DD}

table header:
    The header to be printed just before the table report.  It is used to give 
    column headers.  Leave empty to suppress the header.

    The default is::

        HOST     USER     CONFIG   SIZE      LAST BACK UP

report fields:
    The fields to include in *tree*, *nestedtext* and *json* style reports by 
    default.  Default is *size*, *last_create*, and *last_squeeze*.

tree report fields:
    The fields to include in *tree* style reports.  If not given it defaults to 
    the value of *report fields*.

nestedtext report fields:
    The fields to include in *nestedtext* style reports.  If not given it 
    defaults to the value of *report fields*.

json report fields:
    The fields to include in *json* style reports.  If not given it defaults to 
    all available size and date fields.

size format:
    The format to be used when giving the size of the repository.  This is 
    a QuantiPhy_ format string.  In the example, ``.2b`` means that a binary 
    format with two extra digits is used (one digit is required. so ``.2b`` 
    prints with three digits of precision.  If not given, it defaults to 
    ``.2b``.

date format:
    The Arrow_ format to be used for the date when the requested report style is 
    *tree* or *nestedtext*.  If not given, it defaults to ``D MMMM YYYY``.

repositories:
    Defines repository aliases and composite repositories.  Given as 
    a collection of name:value pairs.  The value may contain zero or more 
    repository specifications.  The specifications may be a strings or 
    dictionaries.  The following forms are accepted::

        repositiories:
            home:
                # home becomes an alias for home on localhost for current user

        repositiories:
            home: home-primary
                # home becomes an alias for home-primary on localhost for current user

        repositiories:
            home: home@host~user
                # home becomes an alias for home@host~user

        repositiories:
            home:
                # home becomes an alias for home@host~user
                config: home
                host: host
                user: user

        repositiories:
            all: home@host~user work@host~user
                # all contains home@host~user and work@host~user

        repositiories:
            all:
                # all contains home@host~user and work@host~user
                - home@host~user
                - work@host~user

        repositiories:
            all:
                # all contains home@host~user and work@host~user
                -
                    config: home
                    host: host
                    user: user
                -
                    config: work
                    host: host
                    user: user

        repositiories:
            home: home@host~user
                # home becomes an alias for home@host~user
            work: work@host~user
                # work becomes an alias for work@host~user
            all: home work
                # all contains home and work


Graphing
--------

To graph the size of a repository over time you must first routinely record its 
size.  You can record the sizes with::

    > borg-space -r home

The sizes are added to the file ``~/.local/share/borg-space/❬full_spec❭.nt``.

Typically you do not manually run *Borg-Space* to record the sizes of your
repositories.  Instead, you can record sizes automatically in two different
ways.  In the first, you simply use crontab to automatically record the sizes at
fixed times::

    00 12 * * *  borg-space -q -r home

In this case the command runs at noon every day and uses the ``-q`` option to
suppress the output to stdout.  This approach can be problematic if *Emborg*
needs access to SSH or GPG keys to run.

The other approach is to add *Borg-Space* to the *run_after_backup* setting in
your *Emborg* configs.  That way it is run every time you run backup::

    run_after_backup = [
        'borg-space -r {config_name}'
    ]

Once you have recorded some values, you can graph them using::

    > borg-space -g home

This displays the graph on the screen. Alternately, you can save the graph to 
a file in SVG format using::

    > borg-space -S home.svg home

I routinely monitor the repositories for over a dozen hosts, and to make it 
convenient I create a composite *Emborg* configuration containing all the hosts, 
and then use the ``--log-y`` option so that I can easily see all the results 
scaled nicely on the same graph::

    > borg-space -l all


Installation
------------

*Borg-Space* requires *Emborg* version 1.37 or newer.

Install with::

    > pip3 install borg-space
