Clarification regarding is_backup field in PkgAcct::Create event

sangeeths
Our integration is hooking into PkgAcct::Create
and PkgAcct::Restore
events to aid in user transfer from one server to another for reactivation. We noticed that the hook gets invoked many times with is_backup=0
and is_backup=1
. Based on our observations, is_backup=0
is what our integration needs to use to detect the transfer of account event. However, we weren't sure based on reading the $cpscripts/pkgacct --skiphomedir username /root/cpanel_backups/
and subsequently the cpmove archive is copied over to the new server and restored with: $cpscripts/restorepkg --allow_reseller cpmove-username.tar.gz
For this and similar use cases, would is_backup=0
be the case all the time? And is is_backup=1
set if --userbackup
or --backup=FILEPATH
as described over here:

    I did some testing with the backup team and you are correct - the =0 value is the one that will normally be used. =1 would be used if either backup or userbackup is true/has a value.
