Once a storage plugin is installed (see Installing and Removing Plugins), it can be used to create a new remote repository ( sy init) or connect to an existing repository ( sy connect). Storage plugins only take care of uploading different types of files – database files, multichunk files, and so on. This is done by keeping all of the synchronization logic, file size issues and even encryption out of the plugins. Storage plugins are part of the core idea of Syncany: They provide a simple interface to make any type of storage usable.
#OUT OF THE BOX DROPBOX PLUGIN INSTALL#
sy plugin: List, install and remove storage backend plugins sy genlink: Create a syncany:// link from an existing local folder sy ls: Display current and historic local database sy restore: Restore older versions of files from the repository sy cleanup: Remove old versions from the local database and the repo sy watch: Automatically synchronizes the local folder with the repo
sy down: Retrieve and apply remote changes sy ls-remote: Detect and display remote changes sy up: Detect local changes and upload to repository sy status: Detect and display local changes sy connect: Connecting to an existing repository sy daemon: Start and stop the background process (daemon) Differences and similarities to other tools Trace-based synchronization through vector clocks Privacy by design through client-side encryption Minimizing remote disk space through deduplication Abstraction for dumb storage through a minimal API
