Instant Backup · 极速备份
Incremental world backup mod for Minecraft dedicated servers
Blob dedup · Chunk COW · Async ZSTD · Scheduled backup · Offline CLI
Repository: github.com/limuqy/InstantBackup
Features
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Incremental backup | XXHash64 change detection; only new or modified files are backed up |
| Blob deduplication | Identical content shared across backup versions to save disk space |
| Chunk COW | Mixin hooks chunk writes and captures original region data before overwrite |
| Async compression | Dedicated ZSTD thread pool; does not block the game main thread |
| Scheduled backup | Configurable interval, online-player check, Carpet bot exclusion |
| In-game commands | Full /backup subcommands: create, list, export, delete, etc. |
| Offline CLI | Manage backups after server shutdown; shares the same database as in-game |
| One-click scripts | Auto-generated InstantBackup.cmd / .sh for interactive REPL |
| Multi-loader | Single codebase for Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge |
| Multi-version | Manifold preprocessing + compat layer for multiple MC anchor versions |
| i18n | Built-in zh_cn (default) and en_us |

Quick Start
Manual backup
/backup create main base done
/backup list
/backup status
Export & rollback
There is no in-game one-click restore. Recommended workflow:
/backup export <index>— export the chosen version as a ZIP- Stop the server
- Extract the ZIP and replace the world directory with backup contents
- Start the server
Exports are saved as backups/InstantBackup_<version_name>.zip by default.
Scheduled backup
Default interval is 3600 seconds (1 hour). Common settings:
/backup config interval 1800 # every 30 minutes
/backup config enabled true # enable scheduled backup
/backup config online_only true # backup only when players are online
/backup config exclude_bots true # exclude Carpet fake players
Commands
All commands require OP level 2.
| Command | Description |

/backup create [note] |
Trigger manual backup (auto-migrates PENDING blobs before create) |
/backup list |
List backup versions |
/backup delete <index> |
Delete a version (includes blob GC) |
/backup export <index> |
Export a version as ZIP |
/backup migrate <index> |

/backup status |

/backup config [key] [value] |
View or change config |
/backup clean |
Remove all backup data |

特性一览
| 能力 | 说明 |
|---|---|
| 增量备份 | 基于 XXHash64 检测文件变化,仅备份新增或变更内容 |
| Blob 去重 | 相同内容跨备份版本共享物理文件,显著节省磁盘空间 |
| 区块 COW | Mixin 拦截区块写入,在覆盖前捕获原始 region 数据 |
| 异步压缩 | 独立线程池 ZSTD 压缩,不阻塞游戏主线程 |
| 定时备份 | 可配置间隔、玩家在线检测、Carpet 假人排除 |
| 游戏内命令 | /backup create / list / export / delete 等完整子命令 |
| 停服 CLI | 服务器关闭后仍可管理备份,与游戏内共用同一数据库 |
| 一键脚本 | 自动生成 InstantBackup.cmd / .sh,双击进入交互式 REPL |

快速开始
手动备份
/backup create 主城建设完成
/backup list
/backup status
导出与回档
模组不提供游戏内一键回档,推荐流程为:
/backup export <序号>— 导出指定版本为 ZIP- 停服
- 解压 ZIP,用备份内容替换世界目录
- 启动服务器
导出文件默认保存为 backups/InstantBackup_<版本名>.zip。
定时备份
默认每 3600 秒自动备份一次。常用配置:
/backup config interval 1800 # 间隔 30 分钟
/backup config enabled true # 启用定时备份
/backup config online_only true # 仅玩家在线时备份
/backup config exclude_bots true # 排除 Carpet 假人
