How to add BackupMODX to cron?

Question

MODX

The fact that in the system settings you can enable scheduled backups - I know that. But then what? What script should I add to cron? Generally no idea. Tell me please!
Or use another plugin?

Answer 1

This component works as a widget in the admin panel.
A relatively simple way is to create a separate script (in the form of a .php page or a page with a snippet, which is preferable), and pull out the classes and functions of this component in it, and then configure it to run on Cron.

Answer 2

{тут параметры запуска крона} {пользователь под которым запускать} php {путь до папки assets}/components/backupmodx/cron.php

For example:
once a week at 3 am, starting from Mon, under the user php
I'm not sure, but it should work in theory (be sure to enable the "backupmodx.core_path" setting).
