🔖 Feature description

I know v2 doesn't support backup/import any more. But this feature is still very important for my case. So an API endpoint/button which could download the compressed data folder will be very helpful.

✔️ Solution

new API path, for example, /api/download-zip-data.

It could download a zip file for the data folder.

Some nice-to-have features

cron job to create the zip file
In the setting page, there is a page to manage the backup zip files, like delete, manually create a new one.

❓ Alternatives

For the moment, I would suggest creating a CRON task handling all of this (Zipping the folder and perform a rsync or something similar) for you.

Yeah, that is my plan at the moment. Hope kuma could have this feature in the future.
