= CodeSync = This is a mac utility that uses rsync to immediately synchronize file changes to a server or remote computer, as you work. NOTE: Since it uses rsync to communicate with the server, it is important to setup passwordless public/private keys: http://www.ece.uci.edu/~chou/ssh-key.html CodeSync uses a project file (see example below) that tells it how to connect to the server and which directories to keep in sync. == PASSWORDS and PUBLIC/PRIVATE KEYS == Each time rsync communicates with the server it'll ask for your password, which is really annoying, unless you setup a passwordless public/private keys. Follow the instructions at the following URL to be able to sync without passwords: http://bit.ly/PcTRK == INSTALL == * Download the latest version of CodeSync: http://github.com/jgillick/CodeSync/archives/master * Extract the source code. * In the source directory run: sudo ./install == Using CodeSync == * Decide where you want the local project workspace to be. For example: ~/Projects/Work/ * In your workspace, create a directory for the files: ~/Projects/Work/files/ * Copy the sampleProject file to your Work directory and name it 'project': ~/Projects/Work/project (See 'EXAMPLE PROJECT FILE' section below) * Edit the project file: + Set the server/username (be sure you have setup your passwordless public/private keys) + remote_basedir should be set to the workspace directory on your remote machine. + Set local_basedir to '~/Projects/Work/files/' + Add the directories you will be working in to the sync_dirs directory. * Now run the program: codeSync ~/Projects/Work/project == EXAMPLE PROJECT FILE == # Server details server="remoteserver.com" username="johndoe" # Base directories to sync from/to remote_basedir="/home/johndoe/svn/" local_basedir="~/Projects/Work/files/" # The directories to sync, relative to the base directories sync_dirs=[ "/static/js", "/static/css", "/gui/jsp" ] # sync_dirs=[ ] # This will sync the entire base directories # The contents of these directories will only sync "up" to the server. # This means the contents will never be downloaded from the server # but files added or changed locally will be sent to the server # # sync_up=[ "/static/img" ] sync_up=[ ] == BASE DIRECTORIES vs SYNC DIRECTORIES == The base directories are where everything happens on the local and server machines. If you're working with a large code base you wont want to download and sync ALL the files. In this case you define the directories you'll be working on in the sync_dirs array. If you don't want to download the contents of a directory from the server, but upload any changes that are made, you can add those directory paths to the sync_up array.
