In-Game GUI & HUD

Just Enough Backups includes a fully interactive client-side user interface. You don't need to leave Minecraft or remember terminal commands to manage your backups.

1. Backup Management Menu

Press B to open the Backup Browser:

Features:

• Search & Filter: Type in the top bar to filter backups in real-time by keyword, type, or date.
• Dependency Inspection: View inline indicators showing whether an archive is a base backup or part of an incremental chain.
• Actions Toolbar:
  • Create Backup: Select backup type (FULL, PARTIAL, DIFFERENTIAL) and enter an optional custom name.
  • Rename: Change an existing backup's display name without breaking dependency chains.
  • Delete: Remove an archive when doing so will not break a dependent backup chain.
  • Restore: Launches the safe two-stage world restore process.

2. In-Game Configuration Screen

Press N or click the config button in Mod Menu:

Screen Tabs:

• General: Backup mode, scheduler intervals, player presence check, server stop backups.
• Performance: Multithreading slider (threadCount), compression method (DEFLATED / ZSTANDARD), and compression levels.
• Retention: Limits for Full, Partial, and Differential archives, plus hard total world size caps.
• Remote: Cloud provider selection (S3 or WebDAV), buckets, endpoints, and credentials.
• HUD: Popup styling, position, text, colors, and display options.
• Preview: Try the popup in different states and drag it to the desired screen position.

Singleplayer vs Dedicated Server

• In Singleplayer: Changing settings in this screen immediately updates your game.
• On a Dedicated Server: HUD appearance is personal to your client. Server-wide settings (schedules, retention, storage) are saved in the server's config/justenoughbackups.json; run /jeb config reload after editing that file. A client config screen does not change the server's configuration.
