Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

Would be nice an option to backup on demand, instead of waiting 15 minutes for each backup.
Also, it gonne be cool if this can be done via command line.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

Start de desktop application with some parameters to create a backup without opening the screen.
