My take on a Borgbackup Server as a Docker container to faciliate the backing up of remote machines using Borgbackup

I personally like to split my ssh keys out of the main container to make updates and management easier. To achieve this I create a persistent storage container;

docker run -d -v /home/borg/.ssh --name borg-keys-storage busybox:latest

• Container Creation:

docker create \
  --name=borg-server \
  --restart=always \
  --volumes-from borg-keys-storage \
  -v path/to/backups:/backups \
  -p 2022:22 \
  ghcr.io/grantbevis/borg-server

After creating the container you will need to start the container add your own public keys.
