One of the features we want upstream is Backup/Restore of the Journal.<br>
<br>
There are already a page for this feature [1] but the currently only<br>
is implemented<br>
the backup/restore to a connected device (pen drive), and not to/from<br>
the school server.<br>
<br>
I did the port to Sugar 0.100 of the code in dextrose, (patches [2] and [3])<br>
but still think need more work before pushing upstream.<br>
<br>
Here my comments/questions:<br>
<br>
* Right now, the access to backup/restore functionality is available in the menu<br>
of the connected device (see [4]). May be should be in the Journal button,<br>
to allow other destinations in the future, like google drive/dropbox/etc?<br>
Or should be as a option in the control panel? (If the control panel is only<br>
for configuration this may be not the right place)<br>
<br>
* The screen look alien [5]. Should be better if we add a toolbar or<br>
should be in a modal dialog similar to the control panel/ object chooser?<br>
<br>
* We need a better icon.<br>
<br>
* The actual implementation have scripts to backup/restore from the<br>
command line.<br>
Then the sugar code execute the scripts, and the scripts execute tar. Is needed<br>
this indirection or should be better call tar from sugar?<br>
<br>
This implementation can be tested in our AU images [6]<br>
