I can't get this script to work for me about klipper-backup

[Staubgeborener]

Sorry for the late reply, I am currently moving my apartment.

Is there a .env file in your klipper-backup folder and if so, did you edit the content inside so it match with your repository name and your GitHub token?

Please do a ls -la /home/pi/klipper-backup and post the result here. Please also post the content of your .env file (just hide the token part).

Yes. The token is in the .env file.

Try the following, step by step:

1. Create a repository on GitHub for your backup files (i think you already did that)
2. Clone your repository: cd ~ && git clone https://github.com/simpat1zq/elf
3. Go into your repository: cd ./elf
4. Copy all files from this script in your own repository: cp * ~/klipper-backup/ .
5. Make the script executable: chmod +x ./script.sh
6. Run the script: ./script.sh

If you get an error, please replace the line git rm -rf --cached "$parent_path"/.env with

git filter-branch --force --index-filter \
  'git rm -r --cached --ignore-unmatch "$parent_path"/.env' \
  --prune-empty --tag-name-filter cat -- --all

in script.sh. I already did that with the commit 6dc586a. Try to re-run the script ./script.sh.

Btw, i recognize, that the klipper paths have changed. So instead of /home/pi/klipper_config/[...] it should be /home/pi/printer_data/config/[...]. But check this for yourself before editing.

I decided to create a wiki that provides detailed step-by-step instructions.

In this concrete context, this would be the interesting part for you.
