New Backup Service for Self-Hosting Affine

Introduction

I would like to introduce a new backup service package designed for those who are self-hosting Affine. This package, named affine-backup-service, automates the process of creating periodic backups, retaining them according to a configurable schedule, and cleaning up older backups based on specified retention policies.

Features

• Configurable backup directory and data retention periods.
• Automated backup creation with a defined cycle (e.g., daily, every 2 days).
• Integration with systemd services for automatic scheduling and monitoring.
• Logging capabilities to trace backup processes and detect issues.

Acknowledgements

This program was primarily created by ChatGPT with my collaboration. I conducted basic testing to ensure the core functionalities work as expected. However, I must clarify that I will not be responsible for any further maintenance or updates to this package.

Disclaimer

Please note that while the initial testing was performed, this package is provided as-is. Users are encouraged to review and customize the program to fit their specific needs. The author (Xu Hao) does not hold responsibility for any data loss, issues, or further support.

Thank you for your attention, and I hope this tool proves useful for the community!
