Novolis.Workspaces.Snapshots

Captures an entire IProjectWorkspace tree as zip archives using IWorkspaceSnapshotPolicy include/exclude rules. Timeline data under .novolis/timeline/ is excluded from capture and preserved across restore.

Install

dotnet add package Novolis.Workspaces.Snapshots

Depends on System.IO.Abstractions, Novolis.Workspaces.Abstractions, Novolis.Workspaces.FileSystem, and Novolis.Snapshots.Abstractions.

Quick start

using System.IO.Abstractions;
using Novolis.Snapshots;
using Novolis.Workspaces.FileSystem;
using Novolis.Workspaces.Snapshots;

var fs = new FileSystem();
var snapshotsRoot = fs.DirectoryInfo.New(
    Path.Combine(workspace.Root.FullName, ".novolis", "snapshots"));

var store = new ZipWorkspaceSnapshotStore(fs, snapshotsRoot);
var snapshot = await store.SaveAsync(
    workspace,
    new SnapshotRequest("Before export", SnapshotKinds.ExportCheckpoint));

API

Type Role
ZipWorkspaceSnapshotStore ISnapshotStore<IProjectWorkspace, ZipSnapshotRef>
IWorkspaceSnapshotPolicy ShouldInclude(workspace, file)
DefaultWorkspaceSnapshotPolicy Default include/exclude for documents, assets, manifests

Default policy excludes .novolis/timeline/, cache/, temp/, outputs/, and similar paths.

Package Role
Novolis.Workspaces.Abstractions IProjectWorkspace being captured
Novolis.Workspaces.FileSystem Layout paths and open/create
Novolis.Snapshots.Abstractions ZipSnapshotRef, SnapshotRequest
Novolis.Snapshots.Zip Single-state zip store (not whole workspace)
Novolis.Workspaces.Timeline Orchestrates snapshots + timeline

Notes

Restore backs up and restores the timeline folder separately so history survives workspace rollback. See design.md.
