What I'm trying to do and why

Run a script before and after the actual backup process

Steps to reproduce (if a bug)

/etc/borgmatic.d/nextcloud.yaml has those lines:

hooks:
    before_backup:
        - sudo -u www-data php /var/www/cloud/occ maintenance:mode --on
        - /opt/borg-scripts/bkp_nextcloud.sh

    after_backup:
        - sudo -u www-data php /var/www/cloud/occ maintenance:mode --off

then I run sudo borgmatic --verbosity 2 -c /etc/borgmatic.d/nextcloud.yaml

Actual behavior (if a bug)

summary:  
/etc/borgmatic.d/nextcloud.yaml: Error parsing configuration file. 
An error occurred while parsing a configuration file at /etc/borgmatic.d/nextcloud.yaml:  
while scanning for the next token 
found character that cannot start any token 
  in "/etc/borgmatic.d/nextcloud.yaml", line 197, column 1

Expected behavior (if a bug)

Run the command

Other notes / implementation ideas

Line 197 is the first before command.
I also tried the "standard" command (echo "Starting a backup job.") in the yaml config, same result
Am I missing something or is this a bug (can't be the first one)?

Environment

borgmatic version: [1.3.12]

borgmatic installation method: pip

Borg version: 1.1.9

Python version: 3.5.2

operating system and version: Ubuntu 16.04, 4.15.0-52-generic

Thank you for reporting this! I managed to get a reproduction of the same error message by using tabs to indent the hook command lines instead of spaces. If you indeed have tabs there, could you try replacing them with the requisite number of spaces?

Glad that was it! I'm adding info about this to the documentation, as it's not at all obvious from the error message. Thanks again for filing.
