## What it is
resticprofile is a configuration profiles manager and scheduler for the restic backup tool, letting users define multiple profiles in a single TOML, YAML, or JSON file. It integrates with systemd, crond, launchd, and Windows Task Scheduler to schedule backups, retention, and checks, and adds monitoring hooks like Prometheus metrics and status files.

## Use cases
- manage multiple restic backup profiles in one config file
- schedule restic backups with systemd or cron
- run retention and checks automatically after backups
- monitor backup jobs with prometheus metrics
- run shell commands before and after backups
- avoid running backups when on battery power

## When to avoid
- you don't use restic as your backup engine
- you need a GUI-based backup solution
- you want a standalone backup tool that manages its own repository format
