• Can now be scheduled in Task Scheduler to backup a package or multiple packages. Issue #105
  • Run the script with the -h or --help option to see how.
• Added exclude option in syno_app_mover.conf so you can exclude specified apps when "all" mode is selected.
• Updated instructions in conf file.
• Added -h, --help option.
• Added --autoupdate=AGE option to auto update the script (useful when script is scheduled)
  • AGE is how many days old a release must be before auto-updating. AGE must be a number: 0 or greater
• Added --list option to show installed app's system names (names needed for scheduling backups).
  • Also shows if there are any broken packages (broken 'target' symlink or missing volume).
• Now checks the size of selected app(s) and the free space on target volume.
• Changed to use rsync instead of cp for backups to make backing up the same package again faster.
• Now exports Container Manager/Docker container's settings to the docker shared folder. Thanks ctrlaltdelete
  • e.g. /volume1/docker/app_mover_exports
  • Includes new delete_older and ignored_containers options in syno_app_mover.conf
• Changed to prevent moving, backing up or restoring Container Manager or Docker between different file systems.
• Now deletes unused and dangling docker images before restoring.
• Now deletes dangling docker images before moving or backing up.
• Changed to work if PATH contains /opt/bin;/opt/sbin; with incompatible binaries. Issue #125
  • e.g. If Entware is installed (which installs busybox).
• Changed to allow "moving" or backing up apps when volume is read only. Issue #122
  • If source volume is read only:
    • Copies apps to target volume instead of trying to move them, when move selected.
    • Skips exporting container settings, as Docker or Container Manager cannot be started when volume is read only.
    • Skips removing docker dangling and unused images.
• Bug fix for moving Synology Drive. Issue #126
• Bug fix for packages with spaces in their name (DSM 6 Plex Media Server).
• Bug fix for bad array subscript when a broken package exists. Issue #117
