Leave your breaching fears behind.

A Gall app that runs like a chron job in the background to back up the members of specified groups. If your ship is mounted to Unix, it will spit out text files for each group in Unix under$PIER_DIR/bak-groups/. This is great for restoring users to a group you own after a breach.

• make sure yourhome is mounted (|mount %)

THEN

• run./install.sh $PIER_DIR
  • $PIER_DIR will be like~/timluc-miptev/home

OR

• copyapp/backy.hoon to/app
• copysur/backy.hoon to/sur
• copy/mar/backy/action.hoon to/mar/backy

THEN

|commit %home|start %backy:backy &backy-action [%add-group [~GROUP-SHIP %GROUP-NAME]]

The%add-group action adds groups whose members you want to back up to disk. e.g.[%add-group ~timluc-miptev %cool-group].

Whenever a new group is added, all monitored groups are re-written to disk.

If you want to watch the code directories and copy them to their ship as they are modified:

./install.sh -w $PIER_DIR

By default,%backy backs up data every 5 minutes. You can use the%alter-timer action to adjust this.

::  example time values: ~s20, ~m10, ~h2:backy &backy-action [%alter-timer ~m5]
