Automatic backup of Vito itself

[sinnbeck]

I am aware that you can manually export settings from the "Vito settings" panel. But it would be great if I could somehow automate this. Have it run that export script and put the data on S3 or similar. That would make it easy to roll back from the interface, or use it in case of the server breaking.

Honestly I would just use the backup feature of my server provider

That is a possibility, but for a service like Hetzner, you can only take a backup of the full server, and then use it to restore the full server. And it cost 20% of the server price to use :)

Anyways. Was just a nice little idea, that I figured wouldnt take much to implement.

Brilliant work. Seems you are on a roll.

Is there not intention to have the possibility to backup Vito itself? Or should this maybe be done with a plugin?

I'd appreceate a script backing up Vito itself rather than a user interface for it. Seems a simple thing and not worthy to make it a maintenance overhead
