It can be used to collect changed files in a directory during a period by scanning the changed files and copying them into a zip file in "./backup".

Currently, it is used in Minecraft Servers for sensing the changing chunk files in Minecraft worlds.

python main.py [directory] [period] [type]

• [directory] should be a relative or absolute path for the directory you want to backup for.
• [period] should be an integer, which is the time between each snapshot in seconds.
• [type] should be chosen from zip or tar

python main.py ./test 20 tar
