Forge's mod
Work on client & server
So, I wanted a mod just to make backups of my maps without having to download a mod and a library.
Discord server : https://discord.gg/6cq3skc
Command :
/openbackup backup
to create an instant backup of your world./openbackup restore
To unzip a backup in openbackups/restore folder/openbackup status
To know the current status of your openbackup folder/openbackup delete
To delete a backup in-game.
Hello LotuxPunk!
I was wondering if the "No backup if no player is online" feature has any update so far?
I am running a dedicated server on MC 1.14.4 and I was also asking myself if maybe you did update the mod already, with the said feature, but you are not working on this particular version anymore?
Does this work with fabric?
In reply to owndBYfate9x:
Not yet, but it's planned
In reply to LotuxPunk:
Sweet. Do you have any suggestions for like programs that you know of that do work with fabric? I'm scared for my server I've never not had a backup lol.
Could you make it so that backup only happens when players are online?
at the moment I don't have any old backups anymore even if no player is online because the backups did already rotate
To be more exact:
Create a dirty flag
if player logs in dirty flag is set
dirty flag is cleared by backup if no player is online
if dirty flag is not set no backup is taking place
In reply to DonRedhorse:
It's planned ! I'm actually working on a brand new version of OpenBackup with a common base of code between a Forge and a Fabric version.
And this kind of functionality will be possible with my new architecture. \o/
Thanks for the suggestion !
In reply to DonRedhorse:
I'd really like if users had the option to toggle whether backups are made when players are not online. :)
What is the difference between this mod and copy and paste the "world" folder?
I'm not criticizing it, it's just that I have too many mods and I want to avoid having more nonsense lol
In reply to kevinggg1:
It does it automatically, plus it compress it.
You already have an option "fileToKeep", but you have to make sure the number of saves are less than the "maxSizeBackupFolder "
I would keep this mod server side only, so no GUI planned.
I tried the backup and restore command, they are fine ! Maybe check the latest release ?
Thanks for creating an autobackup mod for 1.15. I'm using 1.15.1-0.0.0.2 on Minecraft 1.15.2. The manual backup (/openbackup backup) doesn't correctly create the zip file. It creates a corrupt file that cannot be uncompressed to use. Also the restore command just does nothing, so I have been restoring manually. In addition to fixing that I would appreciate if you also added an option to change the automatic save intervals. If possible a UI would be nice too, like how Backups does it for Minecraft 1.12.
In reply to MPWHart:
Thanks ! I'll take a look ! Feel free to post this issue on the Issue tracker (Github)
Additional Thoughts:
It'd be neater if it organized backups into folders unique to the save file within the openbackups folder.
It'd also be nice if there was an option to set how many backups it keeps.
lotuxpunk For the config what does each one do? Like the range, dynamicworldname etc?
absolutely cool mod! works great!
Hey! I'm playing this mod on 1.15.2 and sometimes i can't open the backup file. The ruined rar file has double name or triple for example the world's name is jo and the backup has the name of jojo or jojojo and then the date. And when i want to open that rar it says the file is damaged
This is the ONLY god damn backup mod that actually works in 1.14.4 properly. I dont know what all the other mod authors are smoking with their convoluted shit, but thank you for making something that actually functions.
Can this be installed serverside only?

Sure
