FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

1. Installation
Prerequisite: you must install kirby-janitor (and the CLI per janitor's instructions) for this plugin to work. For a Kirby 3 website, install v.1.0.3. For a Kirby 4 website, install v.1.0.4+.

Alternatively, you can install it with composer:
2. Usage
The plugin will work out of the box, no need for additionnal setup.
You can, however, change the prefix of the backups' filename (default is backup-{TIMESTAMP}.zip)
Any backup, created either with this plugin or with any of the janitor's options (CLI, CRON job, etc), will now show up in the Backups view.
Janitor stores the backups in a site/backups folder. This folder isn't public and we should keep it that way. Therefore, anytime a user triggers a Download button, the plugin will create a copy of the given backup in a backups-temp folder and expose an url from there.
When the user leaves the view, copies will be deleted.
This default public assets/backup-temp folder can be changed to any name you'd like:
The backups list isn't paginated because it is not intended to keep hundreds of backups around. If included in a client website, you should include a note specifying an expected frequency of backup creation / deletion (or set up a CRON job).
You can enforce a maximum number of backups by setting the maximum option to any integer (default is false).
If this number is reached the oldest backup will be deleted automatically whenever a new backup is created.
If you want to create backups from a CRON job and still benefit from this maximum option, the plugin exposes a tweaked janitor webhook:
There's also a way to disable the "Backups" menu-item for specific user roles:

- The plugin relies on the Janitor plugin by @bnomei, who tweaked it a bit in order to make the development of Backups easier. 🙏
