  • Flexible VM selection (ID, name, patterns, pools)
  • Hook script execution (pre/post snapshot)
  • Multiple snapshot labels for different schedules
  • Clean command to remove old snapshots
  • Status command to view existing snapshots

What's new in 2.2.1

Fixed
- A snapshot request refused by Proxmox VE (a missing privilege, a guest that no longer exists) printed an internal error (The call is ambiguous between the following methods or properties: ...) instead of the reason: it now prints what Proxmox VE answered, for example Permission check failed (/vms/100, VM.Snapshot), or the parameter that was refused (#140)
- A node of --host that does not answer is given up after 4 seconds instead of the TCP timeout of the system (21 seconds on Windows), through Corsinvest.ProxmoxVE.Api 9.2.5
Changed
- Updated Corsinvest.ProxmoxVE.Api.Extension and Api.Console to 9.2.5 (#140)
- Documentation: page titles that say what the page is about in search results (#137, #139), theme 2.6.2 (#138)
What's Changed
- docs: home page title for search results by @franklupo in #137
- docs: theme 2.6.2 by @franklupo in #138
- docs: page titles that match what people search by @franklupo in #139
- Report the reason when Proxmox VE refuses a snapshot request by @franklupo in #140
- chore: release 2.2.1 by @franklupo in #141

Arduino Builder

Arduino Builder 1.0.13

Arduino Builder is a standalone utility for viewing, compiling and uploading Arduino sketch files and compiled ELF or HEX files to Arduino boards with the Arduino serial programming interface, Arduino ISP or USBasp, without the need for the Arduino IDE. The app has a standard user interface with drop down menus to choose the data you need. The functions of the utility can be undertaken in 3 steps. When compiling is required, for uploading sketch file, Arduino Builder scans the sketch for referenced libraries and then builds the necessary libraries automatically. The distribution package contains Arduino 1.0.4 core and library files, AVR GCC compiler toolchain and AVRDUDE. Please be aware that as only the standard Arduino libraries are shipped with the utility, if you want to build with custom libraries, then you will need to place the library source code files with the identical directory name into /arduino/libraries directory.
