{{#seo: |title=Vita Homebrew Apps (Utilities) - GameBrew |title_mode=append |image=vitabackup2.png |image_alt=Vita Backup }} VitaBackup is a minimal, user friendly backup tool for the Playstation VITA. VitaBackup gives the user 100% flexibility on what they want to back up on their device.(Please look at editing backup config below). Currently the way it works is that it packs all the contents of a folder, or file to a single .tar file. After this is done, it adds the .tar file into a .zip file and compresses it if the user selects a level of compression. ==Features == * Backup multiple folders/files into archives. * Restore multiple folders/files into archives. * Ability to delete backups created by the software. * Offer 11 levels of compression. (0 being no compression, which is usually recommeneded) * Select backup location. (ur0:/ or ux0:/) ==User guide== VitaBackup gives the user full flexibility on what they want to backup. The user can decide on a name and path in the following format: Modify the path.txt file in ur0:/data/VitaBackup/path.txt and add entries in the following format: [name]~[path] Example: Trophies~ux0:/user/00/trophy Licenses~ux0:/license If it's a directory do not put a forward <code>/</code> at the end of the path. ==Controls== Cross - Select item Start - Begin backup/restore process '''Restore menu:''' Cross - Select files Square - Delete files ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/vitabackup4.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/vitabackup5.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/vitabackup6.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/vitabackup7.png ==Changelog== '''v2.0''' * Fixed bug with app.db not being backed up properly. * Use sceIo instead of stdio for i/o handling. * Display instructions in backup/restore screens. * Removed light theme because it didn't fit well, and just took up a lot of space. (There is no longer a theme mode, because this is just a backup tool, we don't need that here.) * Support files larger than 4GB. * Add options to delete backup files from the restore menu. (Press cross to select files, then square to delete.) * Add 11 levels of compression using miniz. (0 being no compression, which is generally recommended) * Add more valuable data to initial backup list. (<code>ur0:/data/VitaBackup/path.txt</code>) '''v1.10''' * Completely re-structured the backup process: **This gives the user 100% flexibility on what they want to back up. **The user can decide on a name and path like so: **Modify the path.txt file in ur0:/data/VitaBackup/path.txt and add entries in the following format: [name]~[path] **Example: **Trophies~ux0:/user/00/trophy **Licenses~ux0:/license **Do not put a forward slash at the end if it's a folder. * Prevent home button and auto-suspend during backup/restore process. * Only display scroll bar if we have more than 5 files. * Use the proper enter/cancel buttons depending on your device's region. (JP uses the &quot;Cross&quot; button to cancel items) * Backup archives have their timestamps separated by a '-'. (Example: some_file-2018-02-08.tar) * Added a light theme in options. (Thanks to Berion for the design) * Added minor touch controls in options and main menu. '''v1.0''' Initial Release: * Make multiple .tar backups. * Restore multiple .tar backups. * Select backup destination (ux0 or ur0). Known issues: * Progress bars (especially when restoring) is not accurate. * No touch controls as of yet. Controls: * Cross - to select item. * Start - to begin backup/restore process ==Credits== * Berion for all the graphics and design used in this program. * richgel999 for miniz. * rxi for microtar. ==External links== * GitHub - https://github.com/joel16/VitaBackup * VitaDB - https://vitadb.rinnegatamante.it/#/info/361 * GBAtemp - https://gbatemp.net/threads/vitabackup-wip.495625/ * Wololo - https://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?f=116&t=48833 [[Category:Support the author]]
