Automate scheduled folder backups on macOS using a lightweight LaunchDaemon configuration and shell script.
Auto Backup Scheduler is a lightweight macOS automation package designed to create scheduled backups of important folders automatically using Apple's launchd system. Instead of manually copying files or relying on heavy backup software, this tool allows developers and advanced users to create custom automated backup schedules.
The included LaunchDaemon configuration file schedules the backup script to run automatically at defined intervals such as daily, weekly, or hourly. The backup shell script performs efficient file copying and synchronization while minimizing system resource usage.
This package is ideal for developers, system administrators, and power users who want simple, script-based backup automation. The installer package simplifies installation and setup, while the included configuration template allows easy customization of backup folders and schedules.
