# Details
#* The application(Kronikarz) will be like a plug-in engine. For each desktop application that Kronikarz can support a backup, an XML hook-in file (plug-in) must be defined. The application reads the plug-in, and backs-up or restores accordingly.
#* It will have a GUI for the user to specify what to backup, etc.
#* It will have daemon to schedule backup and sync settings, also customizable with a UI.
#* The backend does the main backup and restore functionality, installs uninstalled packages using PackageKit for restore.
#* The code will be written in Python and UI will be built with Qt.
#Features
#* Easy to use intuitive UI, usable by users of all expertise.
#* Easy search and select of applications to be backed-up, synced or restored.

About project

Summary of idea: Handy graphical tool for archiving settings of desktop applications. This tool will be useful for users who:

  • want to simply backup / restore look-and-feel and settings of desktop applications;
  • frequently migrate from one distribution to another;
  • have more then one device and want to sync settings.

Project shortinfo - Summer Coding 2010 ideas - Kronikarz - shortinfo

The idea is to develop a simple tool to archive settings and possibility to reuse this settings on any distro.

Timeline
  • week 1 — matching of technical tasks, determination of participant's roles
  • week 2 - week 4 — realization of backend with backup / restore functional
  • week 5 - week 7 — realization of frontend of basic GUI-application (draft)
  • week 8 — realization of frontend of service/daemon (draft)
  • week 9 - week 10 — debugging
  • week 11 — final testing, creation of rpm-package.
