nfsync - synchronize local files to a remote host
nfsync is a utility which watches the provided directory for changes and mirrors said changes to the remote server. Currently the following operations are supported:
- Renaming (seen as a delete then create)
- Creating directories
- Creating files
- Modifying files
- Deleting files or directories
Some notes:
- Modifying or deleting files outside of the provided remote root directory is strictly disallowed. This is to prevent damage to your system in case there's a bug in this application
- Deleting the remote root directory is strictly disallowed for the same reason
- There might be duplicate events which make an operation execute twice
- There are probably bugs. At the time of writing there are 0 unit test
Installation
Requirements
- Go >= 1.5
- Glide (recommended)
Recommended Manual Install
mkdir -p $GOPATH/gitlab.com/landaire/
cd $GOPATH/gitlab.com/landaire
git clone https://gitlab.com/landaire/nfsync.git
cd nfsync
glide install
go install gitlab.com/landaire/nfsync/cmd/nfsync
This is a little more painful than a normal Go application install, but that's
because the vendor/ directory is not committed and glide doesn't offer
an install command similar to go install which:
1.) Fetches the repo 2.) Fetches and installs dependencies 3.) Installs the application
IDGAF Just Install It
go get -u gitlab.com/landaire/nfsync/cmd/nfsync
This method doesn't ensure dependency versions match, but gets it done in less steps
Usage
Usage is fairly straightforward. To watch changes from the current working directory:
nfsync -i ~/.ssh/your_key.pem user@host:/root/directory
This is equivalent to:
nfsync -i ~/.ssh/your_key.pem . user@host:/root/directory
