A simple ruby-script to create backup from checkvist
Requirements: ruby 1.9.2 tar
How to use
Usage: checkvist_backup.rb [options]
-v, --verbose Output information
-l, --login <email> Your login (email)
-k, --api_key <key> Your API key
-d, --output_dir <dir> Where to place the output file (defaults to current directory)
-f, --output_filename <file> Name of the output file (defaults to "checkvist.tar.gz")
-a, --include_archived Set to include archived checklists
-h, --help Display this screen
Example
./checkvist_backup.rb -avl yourname@domain.com -k yoursupersecretkey
This will produce the file checkvist.tar.gz in the current directory containing all lists including the archived lists.
Cron
Cron is a great way of scheduling a backup.
If you're using RVM, you need to load that from Cron before it can execute the script.
This will produce a daily backup that will override the previous each day:
0 0 * * * bash -c 'source /home/<username>/.rvm/scripts/rvm && /usr/bin/env ruby /path/to/checkvist_backup/checkvist_backup.rb -al <checkvist login> -k <checkvist api key> -d /path/to/backup/output/file/'
