This Project is still work in progress.

RSync

Simple to set up SSH daemon with RSync client.

Running the server

docker run --detach --name rsync --publish 22:22/tcp hetsh/rsync

Stopping the container

docker stop rsync

Creating persistent storage

STORAGE="/path/to/storage"
mkdir -p "$STORAGE"
chown -R 1376:1376 "$STORAGE"

1376 is the numerical id of the user running the server (see Dockerfile). The user must have RW access to the storage directory. Start the server with the additional mount flags:

docker run --mount type=bind,source=/path/to/storage,target=/rsync-data ...

Time

Synchronizing the timezones will display the correct time in the logs. The timezone can be shared with this mount flag:

docker run --mount type=bind,source=/etc/localtime,target=/etc/localtime,readonly ...

Automate startup and shutdown via systemd

The systemd unit can be found in my GitHub repository.

systemctl enable rsync --now

By default, the systemd service assumes /apps/rsync for storage and /etc/localtime for timezone. Since this is a personal systemd unit file, you might need to adjust some parameters to suit your setup.
