  Normally, there are no heading levels assigned to certain characters as the structure is
  determined from the succession of headings. However, this convention is used in Python’s
  Style Guide for documenting which you may follow:

Scripting
#########################

This is a list of how certain tasks may be accomplished when you use
restic via scripts.

Check if a repository is already initialized
********************************************

You may find a need to check if a repository is already initialized,
perhaps to prevent your script from trying to initialize a repository multiple
times (the ``init`` command contains a check to prevent overwriting existing
repositories). The command ``cat config`` may be used for this purpose:

.. code-block:: console

    $ restic -r /srv/restic-repo cat config
    Fatal: repository does not exist: unable to open config file: stat /srv/restic-repo/config: no such file or directory
    Is there a repository at the following location?
    /srv/restic-repo

If a repository does not exist, restic (since 0.17.0) will return exit code ``10``
and print a corresponding error message. Older versions return exit code ``1``.
Note that restic will also return exit code ``1`` if a different error is encountered
(e.g.: incorrect password to ``cat config``) and it may print a different error message.
If there are no errors, restic will return a zero exit code and print the repository
metadata.

.. _exit-codes:

Exit codes
**********

Restic commands return an exit code that signals whether the command was successful.
The following table provides a general description, see the help of each command for
a more specific description.

.. warning::
    New exit codes will be added over time. If an unknown exit code is returned, then it
    MUST be treated as a command failure.

+-----+----------------------------------------------------+
| 0   | Command was successful                             |
+-----+----------------------------------------------------+
| 1   | Command failed, see command help for more details  |
+-----+----------------------------------------------------+
| 2   | Go runtime error                                   |
+-----+----------------------------------------------------+
| 3   | ``backup`` command could not read some source data |
+-----+----------------------------------------------------+
| 10  | Repository does not exist (since restic 0.17.0)    |
+-----+----------------------------------------------------+
| 11  | Failed to lock repository (since restic 0.17.0)    |
+-----+----------------------------------------------------+
| 12  | Wrong password (since restic 0.17.1)               |
+-----+----------------------------------------------------+
| 130 | Restic was interrupted using SIGINT or SIGSTOP     |
+-----+----------------------------------------------------+

JSON output
***********

Restic outputs JSON data to ``stdout`` if requested with the ``--json`` flag.
The structure of that data varies depending on the circumstance.  The
JSON output of most restic commands are documented here.

.. note::
    Not all commands support JSON output.  If a command does not support JSON output,
    feel free to submit a pull request!

.. warning::
    We try to keep the JSON output backwards compatible. However, new message types
    or fields may be added at any time. Similarly, enum-like fields for which a fixed
    list of allowed values is documented may be extended at any time.


Exit errors
-----------

Fatal errors will result in a final JSON message on ``stderr`` before the process exits.
It will hold the error message and the exit code.

.. note::
    Some errors cannot be caught and reported this way,
    such as Go runtime errors or command line parsing errors.

+----------------------+-------------------------------------------+
| ``message_type``     | Always "exit_error"                       |
+----------------------+-------------------------------------------+
| ``code``             | Exit code (see above chart)               |
+----------------------+-------------------------------------------+
| ``message``          | Error message                             |
+----------------------+-------------------------------------------+

Output formats
--------------

Commands print their main JSON output on ``stdout``.
The generated JSON output uses one of the following two formats.

.. note::
    Not all messages and errors have been converted to JSON yet.
    Feel free to submit a pull request!

Single JSON document
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Several commands output a single JSON document that can be parsed in its entirety.
Depending on the command, the output consists of either a single or multiple lines.

JSON lines
^^^^^^^^^^

Several commands, in particular long running ones or those that generate a large output,
use a format also known as JSON lines. It consists of a stream of new-line separated JSON
messages. You can determine the nature of the message using the ``message_type`` field.

backup
------

The ``backup`` command uses the JSON lines format with the following message types.
