Feature request: export to seperate folders #6

Closed gruijter closed 4 years ago

gruijter commented 5 years ago

One possible feature I’d like to see: it would be nice if there was an option to have every export in a separate folder (or is this already possible in the subdirectory setting and did I not see?), for example in a folder 20190828 - last 24 hours

I now have a folder Homey/Insights in which all the backups will be placed. My plan is to have a daily backup (at 00:00) for the last 24h so it will be a relatively small operation. Each 1st of the month I will run a backup of the last month, after which the daily backups could be removed. 1-1-2020 a yearly backup, and the monthly backups can be removed.

I would like to add to the settings (either in subdirectory or a separate field) a new folder name for each run by defining for example tags like DATE - TIMEFRAME. I inserted a photo of how my organisation would look like :slight_smile: 59 Screenshot 2019-08-28 at 21.40.59.png 1228×1124 149 KB Now each backup round will have a separate name per app, but they are all in the same folder (which will be a lot after 31 days for all my 30 apps… I like to keep things organised.

Not exactly like above, but yes it would be great if I could choose a specific folder on each card…

For example just the date (yyyymmdd) would be really nice. Maybe it’s even possible to make some kind of settings where it can be more freely configurable like: %y%m%d (for yyyymmdd) or %backupperiod (for last …) or even some free text for maximum freedom. But in my case just the date would be great.

v2.5.0 adds support for seperate folder per export. Enjoy :)
