how to add --password-file options to rsync

[foxban]

I tried following configs, but it seems not working..

sync {
default.rsync,
source = "/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/",
target = "rsync://10.0.1.1:/data1/",
exclude = "..",
delete = false,
delay = 1,
rsync = {
_extra = { "--password-file=/home/push/.rsyncd_secret" }
}
}

[foxban]

it seems that this is a bug, one modification to the code fixed it.

Indeed, and thats very correct the fix!

Sorry about that. Have been too much coding Javascript recently and was
confused 1-based with 0-based arrays. computedN should start at the second
parameter, which is "2" in Lua.

Also password_file should be a rsync = {} option if its used by people

Kind regards, Axel

Just commited it to git, can you try if everything works now? If so there
will be Lsyncd 2.1.2 due to this, since its a rather critical bug.

Have you pushed it to github? The code is still old version

[axkibe]

No :-) Sorry. (working with svn in my company, so tend to forget that step)

Pushed!

I've encountered an issue about the "password_file" option in lsyncd 2.1.4(also tried the 2.1.3 and 2.1.2)

Here's the error message when I run the lsyncd with its config file:
Error: error preparing /home/hadev/rqb_working_dir/lsyncd/remote_lsyncd.conf: Parameter "rsync.password_file" unknown. (if this is not a typo add it to checkgauge)

Here's my config file's content :
settings {
logfile = "/var/tmp/lsyncd.log",
statusFile = "/var/tmp/lsyncd.status",
nodaemon = true,
inotifyMode = "CloseWrite or Modify",
maxProcesses = 10,
maxDelays = 10,
}

sync {
default.rsync,
source = "rsync@192.168.1.132::tracelog",
target = "/home/hadev/rqb_working_dir/lsyncd/beacon/",
rsync = {
binary = "/usr/bin/rsync",
archive = true,
compress = true,
password_file = "/home/hadev/prod_data/rsyncd.pw",
}
}

Could anyone tell me the reason cause this?

[axkibe]

Apply following patch to fix it.

diff --git a/default-rsync.lua b/default-rsync.lua
index 6da1392..6fa578e 100644
--- a/default-rsync.lua

Sorry about that.

To acces with rsync+ssh without password execute:

env RSYNC_RSH="sshpass -p mypassword ssh" lsyncd -nodaemon -delay 1 -rsyncssh /my/source remoteserver /my/target

[diimpp]

env RSYNC_RSH="sshpass -p mypassword ssh" lsyncd -nodaemon -delay 1 -rsyncssh /my/source remoteserver /my/target

Same as above, via password authorization via sshpass, only with configuration file.
lsync 2.0.7

settings = {
    logfile = "/var/log/lsyncd.log",
    statusFile = "/var/log/lsyncd-status.log",
    statusInterval = 20
}

hosts = {
    '192.168.1.1',
    '192.168.1.2',
}

for _, host in ipairs( hosts )
do
    sync {
        default.rsyncssh,
        source = '/path/to/watch',
        host = host,
        targetdir = '/path/to/upload',
        rsyncOpts = {"-e", "/usr/bin/sshpass -p password /usr/bin/ssh"},
    }
end
