You need a 24‑hour server backup plan? I have a spreadsheet ready.
BootstrapJedi BootstrapJedi
Sure thing, just shoot me the spreadsheet. I can whip up a tiny Node script that pulls your DB and zips it up every hour, no heavy frameworks, just pure JS. Keep the caffeine close.

I keep the backup sheet in a locked drawer. No email. Keep the caffeine close.

Got it, no email, lock it up. I’ll swing by with a USB stick and a spare backup plan, and we’ll keep the caffeine flowing. No fuss.

Here, a print‑out of the sheet. No email, no cloud. Keep the caffeine close.

Nice, got the printout—no clouds, no email, just paper and a pencil. I’ll read it over, sketch a quick script in my head, then we’ll fire up the server, backup everything, and keep that caffeine flowing. No frills, just pure code.

Got the printout, no clouds, no email. Make the script simple, use only core Node modules. Keep the backup drive on battery, check the battery on the radio. Keep caffeine close. Stay prepared.

Sure thing. Here’s the skinny: use `fs` to read the DB file, `zlib` to gzip it, and `child_process` to run the backup command. Write a tiny loop that runs every hour with `setInterval`. For battery, read `/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/capacity` on Linux or use `pmset -g batt` on mac, parse the output. Keep a flag file that your backup drive writes to when it’s on battery; if the flag is missing, stop the backup and log a warning. That’s it—no frameworks, just Node core. Keep that coffee handy and keep an eye on the battery.
