Most plugins are developed and supported by people who wanted them in the first instance.
Some of what you want can be done by one or more third-party, non-application specific, backup/recovery tools - although there may not one that does everything you want.
You don't tell us how you would expect restore to work.
- Firstly, there is no point in having an elaborate backup plugin that transforms calibre's library structure without an equally, or most probably more, elaborate restore plugin that reconstructs the original calibre library structure.
- Secondly, if the backup is partial (e.g. filter by genre) then by implication that restore must be partial too. This will be complicated by the need to cater for the likelihood that the restore target, i.e. the calibre library, has changed since the restore source was created.
Many calibre users use one of these ==>>
Comparison of file synchronization software to maintain incremental backup copies (mirrors) of their libraries - on a local USB or network server/device, and/or cloud services or other remote storage.
