Background Sync allows Cloud Explorer to sync a directory in the background to S3 every 5 minutes. Sync will only upload files that do not exist on S3 and no files will be deleted.
From the GUI:
- Click on "Background Syncing"
- Click Configure
- Click Save.
- Click on "Background Syncing"
- Click "Run".
- Syncing will occur every 5 minutes.
Starting background sync from the Command Line (Useful for running as a background process):
Create your config file from the GUI.
$ java -jar -Xms100m -Xmx500m CloudExplorer.jar daemon
This will allow you to run Cloud Explorer 5 from a Docker container using my public repository. ``` docker pull rusher81572/cloudexplorer docker run -d --net=host rusher81572/cloudexplorer /opt/start.sh ``` To connect to the container, you can use a VNC client. ``` vncviewer localhost:3 ``` After you login VNC, you should see the GUI.
The default password is 123456.
If you want to use the Cloud Explorer CLI instead of the GUI, please run the container as shown below:
docker run -it --net=host rusher81572/cloudexplorer /bin/bash
(You should be in the container now)
java -jar /cloudExplorer-5/CloudExplorer.jar help
** Please note that you will need to use the GUI to create the s3.config file before using the CLI **
