Before writing here I made backups, locally and on github, like you taught me in the past :)

Now I’ll try

@sdetweil said in Question about backup script:

@nowayto also see my MMM-Config, it provides module install and all config

I give it a try some days ago, after your suggestion but I wanna learn the configuration first, rather than easier ways

I’ll read your CSS guide for sure

@rkorell Again, thank you Sam.
I know what you mean, I usually act as you said.
I like to help other, in the subject where I have knowledge.
So, thank you again

Hello,
I have a question about backup script.
In these days I’m trying to learn how to configure MM with some modules, after all these tries, I will do a fresh installation with no errors on configuration.

When I’ll arrive at that point, I’ll wanna backup MM entirely, so I see your script:

bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore/main/mm_backup.sh)” with any parms

I don’t want a github private backup, I want just a local backup so does this script will backup every configuration on: $HOME/MM_backup ?
I assume I’ll just have to copy that folder away and keep it secure?

When I’ll need a restore I can start with an empty SD card, OS installation, MM installation script and then which of that 2 options?

1- copy the MM_backup folder in $HOME, install modules I need and run your restore script
(bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore/main/mm_restore.sh)” with any parms)

2- copy the MM_backup folder in $HOME and just run the restore script

Thanks in advance

Perfect.
Your right but since I’m not a programmer so sometimes I have some stupid doubts.
I started with a simple idea and now in my mind I wanna make more than one MM, with differents setup but for now I need to learn the basics configuration, so I’m testing testing and testing more :)
Reinstall from 0 and test again :)

For example I hope it will be not to difficult to config css, I like the personalization it will offer but I’m scared about difficulties. But I’ll try for sure!

Thank you again
