Backup, Progress And File Changed Or Not ....


Recommended Posts

Hi folks,

I admit - wroten few times - am alame in programming :) Need your help !

Have backup script written by Ezzetabi - really good but need changes to it:

;setting up variables- mydocs,username

$mydocs = @MyDocumentsDir

$desktop = @DesktopDir

$favorites = @FavoritesDir

$apps = @UserProfileDir

_CopyDirWithProgress($desktop, "z:\Desktop")

_CopyDirWithProgress2($mydocs, "z:\My Documents")

_CopyDirWithProgress3($favorites, "z:\Favorites")

_CopyDirWithProgress4($apps & "\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\outlook", "z:\Outlook")

; First function makes a backup of Desktop files

Func _CopyDirWithProgress($sOriginalDir, $sDestDir)

;$sOriginalDir and $sDestDir are quite selfexplanatory...

;This func returns:

; -1 in case of critical error, bad original (@error = 1) or destination (@error = 2) dir

; '' (empty string) if everything went all right

;

; 'list|list|list' list of uncopied files, original full paths separed by pipes '|'

; @error is also set to 3

If StringRight($sOriginalDir, 1) <> '\' Then $sOriginalDir = $sOriginalDir & '\'

If StringRight($sDestDir, 1) <> '\' Then $sDestDir = $sDestDir & '\'

ProgressOn('Copying...', 'Making list of files...', '', -1, -1, 18)

Local $aFileList = _FileSearch($sOriginalDir)

If $aFileList[0] = 0 Then

ProgressOff()

SetError(1)

Return -1

EndIf

If FileExists($sDestDir) Then

If Not StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($sDestDir), 'd') Then

ProgressOff()

SetError(2)

Return -1

EndIf

Else

DirCreate($sDestDir)

If Not FileExists($sDestDir) Then

ProgressOff()

SetError(2)

Return -1

EndIf

EndIf

Local $iDirSize, $iCopiedSize = 0, $fProgress = 0

Local $c, $FileName, $iOutPut = ''

Local $Sl = StringLen($sOriginalDir)

_Quick_Sort($aFileList, 1, $aFileList[0])

$iDirSize = Int(DirGetSize ($sOriginalDir) / 1024)

ProgressSet(Int($fProgress * 100), $aFileList[$c], 'Copying Desktop files:')

For $c = 1 To $aFileList[0]

$FileName = StringTrimLeft($aFileList[$c], $Sl)

If StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($aFileList[$c]), 'd') Then

DirCreate($sDestDir & $FileName)

Else

ProgressSet(Int($fProgress * 100), $aFileList[$c] & @lf & 'Total Kbytes: ' & $iDirSize & @lf & 'Done Kbytes: ' & $iCopiedSize)

If Not FileCopy($aFileList[$c], $sDestDir & $FileName, 0) Then

$iOutPut = $iOutPut & '|' & $aFileList[$c]

EndIf

$iCopiedSize = $iCopiedSize + Int(FileGetSize($aFileList[$c]) / 1024)

$fProgress = $iCopiedSize / $iDirSize

EndIf

Next

ProgressOff()

If $iOutPut <> '' Then SetError(3)

Return $iOutPut

EndFunc ;==>_CopyDirWithProgress

And the question - how to rebuild script to:

1) preserve current functions

2) next time copy ONLY files which changed time ....

Second point is for me a black magic - please help !!!!

Regards

1) Not sure what you mean about preserve current functions

2) Look at FileGetTime() in the helpfile to get info abotu the file. You can use time created, modified or accessed using FileGetTime()

Hey - You are quick :D

Oki doki - wasn't clear enough ...

Preserve means - want to have progress bar, and information which file is currently copying , also info about size of copied files and size of files to copy.

About filegettime - well .. I know there is a function but have no clue how to rebuild current script to use filegettime ... :(

Please help :) Any suggestion is really appreciated !

Based off of the first post, thsi code should work, what i added was a loop that check all files in original dir against those int he dest dir, if a file in the original dir was found in the dest dir then the time of modifications were compared and if they are the same the file is removed from the list of files to be copied.

Hey,

I forgot a nested for loop, now it check every file in the origianl directory against eveyrfile in the dest directory. Before it jsut checked one array against the other :) .Should work now.

Hi Don N

Once more thanks for effort - but it still doesn't copy modfied files ...

If You have time and are still patient on this project - please take a look once more.

I did few tests and files changed in source are not copied to dest.

:) This i foudn the problem. It is in this line

If Not FileCopy($aFileList[$c], $sDestDir & $FileName, 0) Then

The problem is the 0 argument is being passed to FileCopy, this means do NOT overwrite existing files with that name, change the 0 to a 1 and everythign should work perfect. Good luck, lemme knwo how it goes. If u need more with file copy it is listed in the Helpfile
