To share static files from my laptop to the web, I wanted something like Dropbox's automatic background file sync, but only publishing one-way to my own server and S3.
This seems to do it for me, on my Mac OS X laptop. This may or may not be useful to you.
These instructions are woefully incomplete.
- Run
sudo gem install s3sync
- Read about how to set s3sync up. It's not too hard, but I'm too lazy to detail how
- Run
sudo gem install kicker
- Install growlnotify
- Make sure
ssh-agent
is running.- This seems to be taken care of under OS X Leopard after you've ssh'ed to a host.
- Edit
conf/config.sh
- Run
./bin/init.sh
