 La tâche backup va permettre de sauvegarder les applications Yunohost ainsi que leurs données grâce à la mise en place d'une tâche cron.
 
-- `ynh_apps_backup.scheduled` : active la fonctionnalité de sauvegarde des applications Yunohost, mettez la valeur à `True`.
-- `ynh_apps_backup.directory` : le dossier de sauvegarde par défaut est `/home/yunohost.backup/archives` cependant vous pouvez tout à fait choisir de sauvegarder les backups dans un autre dossier grâce à cette variable. Dans ce cas, de manière à pouvoir restaurer les backups depuis l'interface web, Yunohost créé automatiquement un lien symbolique de l'archive créée vers son dossier par défaut.
-- `ynh_apps_backup.scheduled_[hour|minute|weekday|month]`: modifie la planification de la tâche cron. Par défaut elle se déclenchera tous les jours de l'année à 1 heure du matin. Pour plus d'informations concernant les réglages horaires cron, cet outil peut être utile : <https://crontab.guru/>.

-- `dest_script`: il s'agit du répertoire où le fichier de template va être stocké. Par défaut, il sera stocké dans `/usr/local/bin/`. Le script s'appelle `ynh_apps_backup.sh`.

 The backup task will allow to backup Yunohost applications and their data by setting up a cron job.
 
-- `ynh_apps_backup.scheduled`: to enable the Yunohost applications backup feature, set the value to `True`.
-- `ynh_apps_backup.directory`: the default backup folder is `/home/yunohost.backup/archives` however you can choose to save the backups in another folder with this variable. In this case, in order to be able to restore the backups from the web interface, Yunohost automatically creates a symbolic link from the created archive to its default folder.
-- `ynh_apps_backup.scheduled_[hour|minute|weekday|month]`: modifies the scheduling of the cron task. By default it will run every day of the year at 1am. For more information about cron time settings, this tool can be useful: <https://crontab.guru/>.
-- `src_script`: this is the absolute path where the template file is located on the machine running Ansible. By default is will be stored in `templates/ynh_apps_backup.sh.j2`.

 If available, updates are done automatically. In case of problems following an application update, you can read logs located in `/var/log/yunohost/categories/operation` . You also have the possibility to rollback to the previous version since Yunohost always makes an automatic backup of an application when it is updated.
