Automatic backup of turn files

[Lollipop]

thejeff said:
If you also generate the score dump, you can parse that for the turn number and actually save each turn.

Thanks, that was exactly what I was looking for.

I attached a python script. Instead of long winded explanations:

Code:

---

pia@Lollipop:~/dominions3$ ./dom3backup.py --help

usage: dom3backup.py [options]



options:

  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

  -n NAME, --name=NAME  Process file <name>. Otherwise latest file

  -f FREQ, --freq=FREQ  create a Zipfile every <n> turns. Default: 0 (no

                        zipfile)

  -m MAXFILES, --maxfiles=MAXFILES

                        keep max. <n> Zipfiles. Delete oldest. Default: 0

                        (keep all)

  -d ARCHDIR, --archdir=ARCHDIR

                        create Zipfiles in archdir. archdir must exists.

                        Default: <dom3>/archivedgames

  --nocopy              don't copy files to backup-dir. Default: False

  --clean               remove all zipfiles and the backup-dir
