How to add private cheats and backup?

[sayeduzzamancuet]

I am looking for a way to add some private cheats and a way to back them up. Is it possible?

Hey there, @sayeduzzamancuet! That's a client-specific feature that seems deceptively simple - there are actually a number of caveats. Which client are you currently using?

Backing up is a separate issue, and one that would can be served in any number of ways, from having a private git repo with a cronjob on a backup machine to git pull on a regular basis, to using tools such as restic or duplicity. Cloud storage solutions such as backblaze may also be of interest.

It's been discussed before in #3269 and #2051 already - so I'd suggest we close this issue as a duplicate.

What do you think?

I am using in windows through node. What I need is to add/delete/edit cheats. Sometimes I feel like I need to add a private cheat that should not be publicly published. Is it possible?

I see. The repository for that client can be found here: https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr-node-client

I'd generally consider private pages to be a client-specific feature.

See the discussion in #3269 and #2051 for more information. I'm going to close this issue as a duplicate, but I'm happy to re-open it if there's something else we've missed.

Hey guys, I am making a new Python client Phuker/multi-tldr which support private pages. If you prefer Python, you may try it out, and tell me how do you like it.

Maybe someday when it is mature and stable enough, I will create a PR to add it to the community clients list.
