# syssetup

This system was created to allow of easy recreation or restoration of a existing system. This is not a backup application, nor does it create a image in the sense of a full disk image. It creates a snapshot of the current system configuration and installed packages. Once this information is collected it is packaged into standalone self extracting restore archive. It does this by copying your /etc folder and generating a list of installed programs via apt. These are then packaged into executable you can copy and run on another system. Great for duplicating a say a raspberry pi configuration. Works well for VPS systems as well, especially when you just need to do a clean reinstall.

# Scripts

check.bash - The main program. Generates snapshots and can be used to easily install makeself(required).
restore.bash - The program that is run when you run the created archive. It gives you the option to restore or exit. Also processes the required step to recreate things.

# Plans

To add flatpak support for making it more usable for desktops. Also support for OpenWRT, because I want to use this on my router.
