This will restore all the locations to the selected target. If for one location there are more than one backends specified autorestic will take the first one.
This will restore the location to the selected target. If for one location there are more than one backends specified autorestic will take the first one. If no specific snapshot is specified `autorestic` will use `latest`.
The `--to` path has to be empty as no data will be overwritten by default. If you are sure you can pass the `-f, --force` flag and the data will be overwritten in the destination. However note that this will overwrite all the data existent in the backup, not only the 1 file that is missing e.g.

There is an official docker image over at [cupcakearmy/autorestic](https://hub.docker.com/r/cupcakearmy/autorestic).
### Manual
You can download the right binary from the release page and simply copy it to `/usr/local/bin` or whatever path you prefer. Autoupdates will still work.

Most of the config file is remained compatible, however to clean up the backends custom environment variables were moved from the root object to an `env` object.
The way snapshots are referenced in the `restore` and `prune` commands has been changed. Before they were referenced by the path. Now every backup is tagged and those tags are then referenced in the cli. This means that when running restore and forget commands old backups are not taken into account anymore.
## Config files
- The config file now required to have a version number. This has to be added with `version: 2` at the root.
- Hooks now optionally support `dir: /some/dir` in the [options object](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/cupcakearmy/autorestic/internal#Hooks).
- Docker volumes don't get prefixed with `volume:` anymore, rather you have to set the `type: volume` in the [location config](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/cupcakearmy/autorestic/internal#Hooks).
See detailed instructions below.
## Config Version
```yaml
version: 2 # Added
backends:
# ...
```
## Hooks
Since `1.5` multiple sources for a location are possible.
For this reason, while before hooks where executed in the folder of the source, now they are executed in the directory of the config `.autorestic.yaml`.
You can overwrite this behavior with the new `dir` option in the hook section of the config.
```yaml
locations:
l1:
# ...
from: /foo/bar
hooks:
dir: /foo/bar
before: pwd
```
## Docker volumes
The syntax with docker volumes has changed and needs to be adjusted.
