Paranoid Backup
 
Zipper Module Quick Reference Type: transformation module Purpose: compresses the stream passing through it using the ZIP algorithm. A nice side effect is that all individual files from the input stream are put into a single zip file, which keeps the backup repository easy to overview. Configuration parameters: CompressionLevel: Sets the strength of the compression. Higher compression results in a smaller output, but requires more CPU time. Possible values are 
0: no compression (just archive all files into a single zip file)
1: fastest compression
5: medium compression
9: highest and slowest compression
 TargetFileName: The name of the zip file that the output stream of this module contains Input streams input: the incoming data stream that should be compressed Output streams output: contains the compressed version of the input stream Usage Example <Module id="zipper1" moduleType="Zipper"> <Configuration> <ModuleConfigurationItem name="CompressionLevel" value="5" /> <ModuleConfigurationItem name="TargetFileName" value="compressed.zip" /> </Configuration> <StreamMappings> <StreamMapping> <MyStreamName>input</MyStreamName> <ProvidingModuleId>reader_backupUserFiles</ProvidingModuleId> <ProvidedStreamName>output</ProvidedStreamName> </StreamMapping> </StreamMappings> </Module> Home Documentation Sample Configurations Quick Reference
