Config-Cloud-Backuper
by Akiyy
Config-Cloud-Backuper lets players and server owners back up game configuration files, optionally to a WebDAV cloud store, with commands that run on either side.
What it does
The mod backs up game configuration files to a configurable backup folder. Which files are included is set in its main fields, covering game configs, mod configs, shader pack configs, schematics, 3D skin data, Syncmatics and default configs. Backups can be compressed, and old ones are removed automatically once the configured maximum is reached.
On a server, clients can send their local backups to server storage, and files are saved per player with a configurable retention. Incoming files are checked before they are accepted: only .zip files within a size limit are taken, filenames are sanitized, and the server validates SHA-256 hashes and writes audit logs. WebDAV support can upload each backup automatically after it is made, and manual list, upload and retrieve commands are available. Commands are grouped under a root command, and running the root command alone prints brief help.
Installation requires Fabric API on the Fabric loader. Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are optional; when both are installed, an optional GUI opens the settings. The mod is published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21.1, under the MIT License, and its source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Configuration backups
Game and mod configuration files are copied into a backup folder, with the included categories chosen in the main fields.
Compression and cleanup
Backups can be compressed, and older backups are deleted automatically so the folder stays within the maximum count.
WebDAV cloud backup
Backups can upload to a WebDAV remote automatically after each run, and manual list, upload and retrieve commands cover the rest.
Client-to-server uploads
Clients send their local backups to server storage, where files are kept separately for each player with configurable retention.
Upload security checks
Incoming files must be .zip archives under a size limit, filenames are sanitized, and the server validates SHA-256 hashes and writes audit logs.
Optional settings GUI
With Mod Menu and Cloth Config API installed, a settings screen opens the backup and remote options without editing files by hand.

How it compares
Config Backuper is client-side only and open source under the MIT License, with a wider version range, 1.7.10 – 26.3, and Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt files. Config-Cloud-Backuper works on either side, and neither side needs it, while covering only Fabric for 1.21.1. AposaBackup is server-side only and open source under the MIT License, but it targets 26.1.2 – 26.2 on Fabric.
