Backup

A simple command line tool to backup your files using git or zip

Installation

Install the CLI globally using npm:

npm i -g @simondmc/backup

Usage

Git Backup

To backup up files using git, make sure you have a git repository, then run backup or backup <commit message> in a terminal.

Zip Backup

To backup a folder using zip, navigate to inside that folder, open the terminal and run backup -z or backup --zip.

Repository Creation

To initialize a git repository (and immediately backup), run backup -i <remote url> or backup -i <remote url> <commit message> in a terminal.

Command Hooks

Command hooks allow you to run arbitrary commands before each backup. To use them, create a file called backup-hooks.txt in the working directory, with commands separated by newlines. You can use the # symbol for comments.
