Scripting XBMC Backup:

If you wish to script this addon using an outside scheduler or script it can be given parameters via the Xbmc.RunScript() or JsonRPC.Addons.ExecuteAddon() methods. Parameters given are either "backup" or "restore" to launch the correct program mode. If mode is "restore", an additional "archive" parameter can be given to set the restore point to be used instead of prompting via the GUI. An example would be:
RunScript(script.xbmcbackup,backup)
Python code:
-------------------------------------------
RunScript(script.xbmcbackup,mode=backup)
-------------------------------------------
or
JSON Request:
-------------------------------------------
{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Addons.ExecuteAddon","params":{"addonid":"script.xbmcbackup","params":{"mode":"restore","archive":"000000000000"}}, "id": 1 }
-------------------------------------------
There is also a windows parameter that can be used to check if XBMC Backup is running within a skin or from another program. It is attached to the home window, an example of using it would be the following:
Python code:
-------------------------------------------
#kick off the xbmc backup
xbmc.executeJSONRPC('{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Addons.ExecuteAddon","params":{"addonid":"script.xbmcbackup","params":{"mode":"backup"}}, "id": 1 }')
#sleep for a few seconds to give it time to kick off
xbmc.sleep(10000)
window = xbmcgui.Window(10000)
while (window.getProperty('script.xbmcbackup.running') == 'true'):
#do something here, probably just sleep for a few seconds
xbmc.sleep(5000)
#backup is now done, continue with script
-------------------------------------------
FAQ:
I can't see any restore points when choosing "Restore", what is the problem?
