Yummy as backup
« on: February 15, 2011, 11:19:59 PM »

Been using yummy ftp to sync my main server with my back-up server and it's amazing.  However I would also like  to do daily back-ups of just my data folder and not replace/sync the folder each time.  I'd like to end up with different folders ie:  data.1, data.2, data.3 or something like that.

Anyone have a suggestion?  I'm on 1.8.3.

Thanks.

Unfortunately there's nothing built into Yummy to do such a thing, because it was never designed as a back up app.

However, I would expect that you should be able to put together something in AppleScript. You'd need to write the part which creates a unique folder (may date stamped?) on the server every day (Yummy will let you create the folder), then you can use Yummy's scripting capability to sync or simply upload your data into that folder.
