This is a simple script that works around a defined "protocol" of commands. Adding/Removing logic is usually just a matter of editing this protocol.

$BrewTrollerBackupProtocol = @" Name,ScopeList,BackupCommand,RestoreCommand,MaximumIndex Volume Calibration,Volume;VolumeCalibration,B,L,29 Output Profiles,OutputProfiles,d,Q,23 Recipes,Recipes,@,?,19 Boil Temperature,SystemSettings;BoilTemp,A,K,-1 Boil Power,SystemSettings;BoilPower,f,i,-1 Evaporation Rate,SystemSettings;EvapRate,C,M,-1 Outputs,Outputs,D,N,2 Temperature Sensors,TemperatureSensors,F,P,8 Volume Capacity,Volume;VolumeCapacity,H,R,2 "@ | ConvertFrom-CSV

The above creates an array of 9 objects that represent available backup/restore command pairs.

The Scope property allows simple filtering during backup and/or restore using a scope keyword.

The MaximumIndex is used for commands that have an index. A MaximumIndex of -1 indicates there is no index used in the command.

The Recipes restore command requires a hack as the GET command returns a few calculated fields that cannot be sent back in the SET command. The below line splits and joins a subset of fields (0-22) on Recipe restores:

if ($restoreCommand.Name -eq "Recipes") { $line = (($line -split"t")[0..22]) -join "t" }

Data is saved/loaded from standard text files making it easy for someone to edit values or trim down a restore to certain indexes of a command (ie Recipes, etc.).
