Installation

GoBack is still W.I.P. Stable installation is coming soon; for now use the develop-branch source build flow.

Stable Installation

Coming soon. Package/install instructions will be added when GoBack reaches a stable release.

Prerequisites

  • Go 1.25.4 (matches GoBack go.mod on develop branch)
  • Linux host for daemon usage
  • Optional: Docker daemon for volume backups
  • Optional: `mariadb-dump` or `mysqldump` in PATH for MariaDB backups

Develop Branch: Build From Source

git clone https://github.com/vanvanni/goback.git
cd goback
git checkout develop
go build -o goback cmd/cli/main.go
# first run creates config.yml and specs.d automatically
./goback start --dir /etc/goback
