• Set aiohttp default timeout to None (should fix #6).

Auto Backup Sensor and Events

Features

• Adds sensor.auto_backup that will show :

  • If there is a backup in progress (note: currently only one backup can be running at a time).
  • The number of backups being monitored for deletion.
  • The number of backups that will be deleted upon the next purge.

• Adds events (see the README for an example automation):

  • Event: auto_backup.snapshot_successful, data: {"name": "NAME", "slug": "SLUG"}
  • Event: auto_backup.snapshot_failed, data: {"name": "NAME", "error": "ERROR"}
  • Event: auto_backup.purged_snapshots, data: {"snapshots": ["SLUG"]}

Fixes

• Provide more specific error messages.
• Run the snapshot as a job instead of inside the service call.

• Fix the snapshot_full exclude parameter not adding folders and addons by default (fixes #5).
• Allow addon names to be case insensitive when using with the exclude parameter.

• Allow the name parameter to be optional, add default name.
• Clarify backup failed error (#4).

• Adds the ability to automatically copy backups to an alternative folder like a usb drive.
• Adds backup_path parameter to snapshot_full and snapshot_partial services (closes #1).
• Increase backup creation timeout, add backup_timeout configuration option (fixes #3).

• Allow the use of addon names instead of slugs, e.g. Mosquitto broker instead of core_mosquitto.
• Addon names are case insensitive.
• Allow friendly folder names (case insensitive), e.g. Local add-ons instead of addons/local.
• Added an exclude option to snapshot_full service to exclude some addons or folders from the backup.
