# Backup

Backup allows you to export a JSON list of all of your installed repositories and cogs, then reimport them and automatically reinstall/reload the cogs.

## Installation

```bash
[p]repo add seacogs https://www.coastalcommits.com/SeaswimmerTheFsh/SeaCogs
[p]cog install seacogs backup
[p]cog load backup
```

## Version Compatibility

As of commit [1edb08a](https://www.coastalcommits.com/SeaswimmerTheFsh/SeaCogs/commit/1edb08a1271f12098ca0bed11a735f7162cedd14), the Backup cog no longer supports Red versions older than 3.5.6. If you want to use the cog on an earlier version (3.5.0 - 3.5.5), install the cog pinned to this commit: `43464db6a7c51bc69282b1ae3dc507a4aae851de`.

```bash
[p]cog installversion sea-cogs 43464db6a7c51bc69282b1ae3dc507a4aae851de backup
```

## Commands

### backup export

- Usage: `[p]backup export`

Exports a JSON list of all of your added repositories, and their installed cogs.

### backup import

- Usage: `[p]backup import`

Reinstalls repositories and cogs from a valid export. Requires the JSON export to be attached to the invoking message as an attachment. Ignores itself and PyLav cogs, due to possible conflicts with Docker images.
