Where is my config located?

Snaper’s configuration is located in ~/.config/snaper directory. This directory contains the following files:

  • config.yaml: your main configuration file (edited with snaper init command)
  • .encryption_key: holds your encryption key
  • .xxx.lock: locks your encryption key β†’ ensure that you don’t change it on flight, which would make your backups inaccessible
  • index_cache: keep your latest indexes as cache for faster run. We usually retain your latest index, while the other ones are pulled from S3 when needed
