Add Scheduler for Automated Backups #3

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
As an alternative to kicking off backups manually, add a feature to perform
backups automatically on a schedule set by the user.

Support, "daily", "weekly", and "monthly" backups.  The user sets the time
of day for the backup and also the day of the week for weekly backups and
the day of the month for monthly backups.

Suggested by john "oobergeek".

Workaround:
Until this feature is implemented, leverage the command-line.

To facilitate launching backups from scripts and schedulers, Snap Backup can be 
run
from the command-line.  Use the scheduler built for your operating system (for
example, "Scheduled Tasks" on Windows) to automate your backups.  See section 6 
of
the User Guide for details.

This feature will be difficult to build and almost definitely will require
platform-specific code.
