NAME


NINJAHELPER - A menu driven curses-based interface to walk you through backupninja
configuration.

SYNOPSIS


ninjahelper

DESCRIPTION


Ninjahelper is an helper script to walk you through configuration of the backup tasks for
backupninja. It is a curses based "wizard" with an intuitive menu-driven interface.

ADDING NEW HELPERS


To add an additional 'wizard' to ninjahelper, follow these steps:

(1) create a file in the handlers directory (eg. /usr/share/backupninja) using the
.helper extension. For example, if you wish to create a helper for the handler
"blue", create the file /usr/share/backupninja/blue.helper.

(2) next, add your helper to the global HELPERS variable and define the main function
for your helper (the function name is always <helper>_wizard). To use the
blue.helper as an example: HELPERS="$HELPERS blue:description_of_this_helper"
blue_wizard() {
... do work here ...
}

(3) look at the existing helpers to see how they are written. Try to re-use functions,
such as the dialog functions that are defined in easydialog.sh, or the vserver
functions defined in lib/vserver.

(4) test, re-test, and test again. Try to break the helper by going backwards, try to
think like someone who has no idea how to configure your handler would think, try
to make your helper as simple as possible. Walk like a cat, become your shadow,
don't let your senses betray you.
