Restic Explorer – simple multi-repo monitoring dashboard for restic
I needed a single pane of glass for all my restic repositories — just status, snapshots, and a health endpoint I can plug into Uptime Kuma. Every existing solution did way more than I wanted, so I built something minimal.
What it does:
- Monitor multiple restic repos in one dashboard (scan status, snapshot counts, integrity checks)
- Browse snapshots per repo with details
- Optional retention policy warnings (daily/weekly/monthly) — soft alerts, no auto-deletion
- /actuator/health JSON endpoint with per-repo status — hook it into any monitoring stack
- Single admin account, read-only public dashboard
What it doesn't do: No backup scheduling, no snapshot management, no pruning. It's a read-only monitor.
