Support of restic rest

[aacebedo]

Hi,
I was wondering if volsync supports restic rest servers. Borgbase is supporting restic but it uses rest and it would be great to use it as it a great solution for affordable backups.
Is it possible?

Hi @aacebedo - restic does support REST servers, there's some information in their docs here: https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/stable/030_preparing_a_new_repo.html#rest-server

VolSync will pass through the RESTIC_REST_USERNAME and RESTIC_REST_PASSWORD environment variables if you set them in your restic-config secret.

Note if you need a custom CA certificate then take a look here: https://volsync.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage/restic/index.html#using-a-custom-certificate-authority

I know that restic support rest but wasn't sure if volsync did in a ReplicationSource or ReplicationDestination object.
I will try that then.
