Examples

Create

Create a backup for the server specified in the parameters!

/**
 * @param {Guild} [Guild] - The discord server you want to backup
 * @param {object} [options] - The backup options
 */

const { create } = require("@coffeebots/discord-backup");
create(Guild, options).then((backupData) => {
    console.log(backupData.id); // NSJH2
});

Load

Allows you to load a backup on a Discord server!

/**
 * @param {string} [backupID] - The ID of the backup that you want to load
 * @param {Guild} [Guild] - The discord server on which you want to load the backup
 */

const { load, remove } = require("@coffeebots/discord-backup");
load(backupID, Guild).then(() => {
    remove(backupID); // When the backup is loaded, it's recommended to delete it
});

Fetch

Fetches information from a backup

/**
 * @param {string} [backupID] - The ID of the backup to fetch
 */

const { fetch } = require("@coffeebots/discord-backup");
fetch(backupID).then((backupInfos) => {
    console.log(backupInfos);
    /*
    {
        id: "BC5qo",
        size: 0.05
        data: {BackupData}
    }
    */
});

Remove

Warn: once the backup is removed, it is impossible to recover it!

/**
 * @param {string} [backupID] - The ID of the backup to remove
 */

const { remove } = require("@coffeebots/discord-backup");
remove(backupID);

List

Note: backup#list() simply returns an array of IDs, you must fetch the ID to get complete information.

const { list } = require("@coffeebots/discord-backup");
list().then((backups) => {
    console.log(backups); // Expected Output [ "BC5qo", "Jdo91", ...]
});

SetStorageFolder

Updates the storage folder to another

const { create, setStorageFolder } = require("@coffeebots/discord-backup");
setStorageFolder(__dirname+"/backups/");
await create(guild); // Backup created in ./backups/

Advanced usage

Create [advanced]

You can use more options for backup creation:

const { create } = require("@coffeebots/discord-backup");
create(guild, {
    maxMessagesPerChannel: 10,
    jsonSave: false,
    jsonBeautify: true,
    doNotBackup: [ "roles",  "channels", "emojis", "bans" ],
    saveImages: "url"
});

maxMessagesPerChannel: Maximum of messages to save in each channel. "0" won't save any messages.
jsonSave: Whether to save the backup into a json file. You will have to save the backup data in your own db to load it later.
jsonBeautify: Whether you want your json backup pretty formatted.
doNotBackup: Things you don't want to backup. Available items are: roles, channels, emojis, bans.
saveImages: How to save images like guild icon and emojis. Set to "url" by default, restoration may not work if the old server is deleted. So, url is recommended if you want to clone a server (or if you need very light backups), and base64 if you want to backup a server. Save images as base64 creates heavier backups.

Load [advanced]

As you can see, you're able to load a backup from your own data instead of from an ID:

const { load } = require("@coffeebots/discord-backup");
load(backupData, guild, {
    clearGuildBeforeRestore: true
});

clearGuildBeforeRestore: Whether to clear the guild (roles, channels, etc... will be deleted) before the backup restoration (recommended).
maxMessagesPerChannel: Maximum of messages to restore in each channel. "0" won't restore any messages.
