Sync

File and directory synchronization with a NFS or a local path. It supports upload, download, and clean-up of the target NFS or local path.

Requirements

• rsync
• nfs-common

Compatibility

Tested on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. It might work on other Linux distributions.

Usage

sync.sh [-u] [-d] [-c] [-t TARGET (default: nfs)]

Parameters:

• -u: Upload files from the local path to the target NFS or another local path.
• -d: Download files to the local path from the target NFS or another local path.
• -c: Clean-up the target.
• -t TARGET: The target NFS or local path. Default is NFS.

Configuration

• The script requires a .config file with key-value pairs for the base local path and the NFS target IP address.
• An items.txt file is needed to indicate the relative paths of the files and directories from the base local path to be synchronized.
