Rsync for Neovim

An rsync wrapper for Neovim fully written in Lua. This is currently a WIP, more features should eventually make their way into this plugin.

Installation

Dependencies:

• rsync
• sshpass - required if using a password

Using Lazy:

{
    "michel-garcia/rsync.nvim",
    config = function ()
        require("rsync").setup({
            sync_up_on_write = false
        })
    end
}

Usage

Create a file .rsync.lua in the root directory of your project:

return {
    host = "example.com", -- required
    port = 2222,
    user = "admin", -- required
    pass = "thereisnocowlevel",
    path = "/home/admin/public_html", -- required
    exclude = {
        ".htaccess",
        "uploads/"
    }
}

This config file (.rsync.lua) will not be uploaded/downloaded as it is automatically added to the exclusion list.

Commands

Command	Description
SyncDown [current?] [delete?]	Downloads remote files/dirs
SyncUp [current?] [delete?]	Uploads local files/dirs
SyncStop	Stops all active jobs (if any)

Both SyncDown and SyncUp accept delete as an optional argument which maps to --delete when executing rsync. Use with caution as this could potentially result in data loss. Refer to the manpages for rsync for more information.

Similarly, passing current to either SyncDown or SyncUp will make the command sync the file in the current buffer only.
