Ypoc project came from the fact I weekly make incremental backup on my personal computers and I was wondering if Python could handle this.
I first wrote a Python script that had only the incremental backup feature (Copy only edited files and Copy newer files). As it worked, I went further with feature like Copy Structure, Compress as ZIP file before copying or Create a files list etc.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Copy Structure | Only copy folders/sub-folders without files |
| Copy Files | Copy Everything from Source to Destination |
| Copy Files as ZIP | Compress Everything from Source then copy the ZIP file to Destination |
| Create Paths List | List every file paths into a txt file at the root where the script is run |
| Wipe Out Destination | Delete Everything |
| Move Files | Move Everything from Source to Destination |
| Copy Only Edited Files | Copy Files/Folders that has been modifed from the orignal |
| Copy Newer Files | Copy Files/Folders that are not present in Destination |
Install pyintaller
pip install pyinstaller
Generate the standalone app
pyinstaller --onefile your_script_name.py
