media-backup
Encrypted backups of a home media server to the owner's own Google Drive
What it is
media-backup is a personal, self-hosted backup tool. It runs on a single home server and copies that server's music library, media catalog, and application settings to the server owner's own Google Drive account on a nightly schedule.
How it uses Google Drive
- All data is encrypted on the server before upload (file contents and file names), using rclone crypt. Google stores only encrypted data.
- It requests only the
drive.filescope, so it can see and manage only the files it created itself. It cannot read any other files in the Drive account. - It is used solely by its owner, on the owner's own Google account. It is not offered as a service to other users.
