## README

# @mindset-swiss/backup-to-sharepoint

To backup a folder or file to sharepoint folder using node js

## Install

```
$ npm install @mindset-swiss/backup-to-sharepoint
```

## Getting Started

1) Create a new app in the target directory (Azure Portal > Azure Active Directory > App Registration > New Application Registration).
2) In the Create screen, enter the following information:
Name: Can be any name, for example, "MicrosoftGraphClient."
Type: Must be "Web App/API" for our needs.
Sign-On URL: Not important (since we do not intend users to directly login to the app), for our case, we should put it under the tenant directory. For example,https://<directoryname>.onmicrosoft.com/MicrosoftGraphClient
3) Get the Client ID: Note the Application ID - It is the Client ID, so we need the following steps.
4) Create a new Client Secret: Navigate to App > Keys > Passwordsand add a new key.
    - Name (description): enter a descriptive name for the key so you later know that the client application is using it (you can have more than one key per app).
    - Expires: Choose "Never Expire," unless you want to change your key every year or two.
    - Click Save - a new Client Secret will be generated for you. This will be the only time you will see the Client Secret, so you better copy it to a secured location otherwise you won't be able to retrieve it again!
5) Grant permissions within the Azure console (application directory > API Permissions)
    - requires Microsoft Graph Files.ReadWrite.All
    - type Application
    - Then it will require the admin approval


By default each running of the app will create a new folder labeled as the current date, if the current date folder already exists it will update the same folders and create a new version of each file on sharepoint

## Usage

```js
const oneDriveBackup = require("@mindset-swiss/backup-to-sharepoint");

// To run a single backup
var failures = await oneDriveBackup.startBackup({
    backupFolderPath: '/home/ubuntu/Documents/.../FolderToBackup', // The path to the folders you wish to backup and deploy
    oneDriveFolderName: 'Project Backup',
    directoryID: "XXXXX", // Your unique directoryID (The directory name can be found by hovering over our name in the Azure Portal)
    driveID: "XXXXX", // Your unique driveID/name
    client_id: "XXXXX", // Miscrosoft App client ID
    client_secret: "XXXXX", // Miscrosoft App client Secret
});
// Depending on the size of your folders/files, this can take some time
//=> []  Will return an array with all the files which failed to uploaded

// To run a daily backup but only keep a 7 day history (delete based on folder name date) -- need to use a cron job to run it everday
oneDriveBackup.dailyBackup7Days(
    {
        backupFolderPath: '/home/ubuntu/Documents/.../FolderToBackup', // The path to the folders you wish to backup and deploy
        oneDriveFolderName: 'Project Backup',
        directoryID: "XXXXX", // Your unique directoryID (The directory name can be found by hovering over our name in the Azure Portal)
        driveID: "XXXXX", // Your unique driveID/name
        client_id: "XXXXX", // Miscrosoft App client ID
        client_secret: "XXXXX", // Miscrosoft App client Secret
    }
);

console.log(failures)

```
