Mimic

current version: 0.2.3

Mimic is a simple file cloner. Any changes made to the source directory will be reflected in the destination directory. It has handling for all system events and will make changes accordingly.

Getting Started

Using mimic is simple:

Install it using the makefile.

make all

Basic usage:

mimic -w "sourcedir:destinationdir"

This will immediately clone all files and directories in 'sourcedir' into 'destinationdir'. It will then watch 'sourcedir' for any changes.

Configuration

Color

Mimic supports colored output. Simply start it with the color flag.

mimic -c -w "sourcedir:destinationdir"

*(only tested in GNOME terminal, but should work in most bash)

Output

By default mimic only outputs error and file creation events. For more information try the -v flag.

mimic -v -w "sourcedir:destinationdir"

To have it only output errors, use the -q flag.

mimic -q -w "sourcedir:destinationdir"

About
