This element can only have <code><directory></code> elements as children.</p> <h2 id="directory">directory</h2> <p>This element configures a sync-directory. A sync-directory must have a unique name, a (local) path, repository and a database.</p> <p>Required elements: <code><name></code>, <code><repository></code>, <code><path></code>, <code><database></code><br /> Optional elements: <code><collection></code>, <code><trash></code>, <code><max-retry></code>, <code><backup-on-pull></code>, <code><lock-pull></code>, <code><lock-push></code>, <code><lock-timeout></code>, <code><filter></code></p> <h3 id="name">name</h3> <p>Unique sync-directory identifer. This identifer is used in combination with all <em>dav-sync</em> commands.</p> <p>Type: string<br /> Example: <code><name>mysyncdir</name></code></p> <h3 id="repository">repository</h3> <p>Name of the WebDAV-repository. A repository with the same name must be configured in [config.xml][1].</p> <p>Type: string<br /> Example: <code><name>myrepo</name></code></p> <h3 id="path">path</h3> <p>The path of the local directory that should be synchronized. The path must be an absolute path or start with an environment variable. A path with an environment variable must start with an <code>$</code> followed by the variable name optionally followed by a path. For example:</p> <pre><code>`<path>$HOME/Documents</path>`</code></pre> <p>The part between <code>$</code> and <code>/</code> is the environment variable name.</p> <p>Type: string<br /> Example: <code><path>/absolute/path</path></code></p> <h3 id="database">database</h3> <p>Path to the database file used for this sync-directory. The path must be relative to the <em>$HOME/.dav/</em> directory.</p> <p>Type: string<br /> Example: <code><database>myrepo-db.xml</database></code></p> <h3 id="collection">collection</h3> <p>Path of the collection relative to the repository root collection. For example if the repository url is <em>http://example.com/webdav/</em> and the collection value is <em>/myfiles/</em>, the directory is synchronized with <em>http://example.com/webdav/myfiles/</em></p> <p>Type: string<br /> Default: /<br /> Example: <code><collection>/myfiles</collection></code></p> <h3 id="trash">trash</h3> <p>Path to the trash directory for this sync-directory. Files that should be deleted will be moved to this directory. The value must be an absolute path or relative to the sync-directory path.</p> <p>Type: string<br /> Example: <code><trash>.trash</trash></code></p> <h3 id="max-retry">max-retry</h3> <p>This integer value controls how many attempts of downloading/uploading a file in case of an error are made.</p> <p>Type: integer<br /> Default: 0<br /> Example: <code><max-retry>3</max-retry></code></p> <h3 id="backup-on-pull">backup-on-pull</h3> <p>If this element has the value of true, the <em>pull</em> command will move old local files to the trash directory before downloading the new version from the server.</p> <p>Type: boolean<br /> Default: false<br /> Example: <code><backup-on-pull>true</backup-on-pull></code></p> <h3 id="lock-pull">lock-pull</h3> <p>Enables locking for the <em>pull</em> command.</p> <p>Type: boolean<br /> Default: false<br /> Example: <code><lock-pull>true</lock-pull></code></p> <h3 id="lock-push">lock-push</h3> <p>Enables locking for the <em>push</em> command.</p> <p>Type: boolean<br /> Default: false<br /> Example: <code><lock-push>true</lock-push></code></p> <h3 id="lock-timeout">lock-timeout</h3> <p>Specifies the lock timeout in seconds. If the lock-timeout is 0, the client doesn't request a specific timeout and the server's default value is used. If the lock-timeout is -1, a infinite timeout is requested.</p> <p>Type: integer<br /> Default: 0<br /> Example: <code><lock-timeout>50</lock-timeout></code></p> <h3 id="tagconfig">tagconfig</h3> <p>Configures the local store for resource tags. If this element is specified, resource tags are stored locally.</p> <p>Optional elements: local-store, detect-changes, xattr-name, on-conflict</p> <h3 id="local-store">local-store</h3> <p>Specifies the tag-store type. Currently the only available type is <code>xattr</code>.</p> <p>The element can contain the attribute <code>format</code> with one of the following values: <code>text</code>, <code>csv</code>, <code>xml</code>, <code>macos</code>. The default value is <code>text</code>.</p> <p>Type: tagstore type enum<br /> Default: xattr<br /> Example: <code><local-store format="csv">xattr</local-store></code></p> <h3 id="xattr-name">xattr-name</h3> <p>Specifies the name of the extended attribute for storing tags. The default value is <code>tags</code>, unless you are using the <code>macos</code> format, where the default value is <code>com.apple.metadata:_kMDItemUserTags</code>.</p> <p>Type: string<br /> Default: tags<br /> Example: `<xattr-name>file_tags</xattr-name></p> <h3 id="detect-changes">detect-changes</h3> <p>Controls, if tag changes should be detected.</p> <p>Type: boolean<br /> Default: false<br /> Example: <code><detect-changes>true</detect-changes></code></p> <h3 id="on-conflict">on-conflict</h3> <p>Specifies the behavior, when tag conflicts occur. Possible values are: <code>no_conflict</code>, <code>keep_local</code>, <code>keep_remote</code>, <code>merge</code></p> <p>Type: onconflict enum<br /> Default: no_conflict<br /> Example: <code><on-conflict>merge</on-conflict></code></p> <h3 id="filter">filter</h3> <p>With the filter element, include and exclude filters can be specified, to control which files are synchronized. The <em>pull</em>, <em>push</em> and <em>archive</em> command apply these filters to file paths. At first it is checked if a file is matching any include filter. If so only files matching not an exclude filter are further processed.</p> <p>It is also possible to filter resources by tags. Tags can dynamically be applied to individual files. The tag filter elements contains a tag filter expression. Only files that match the filter expression are synchronized.</p> <p>Note: The file path is relative to the directory path (and WebDAV collection) but always starts with an path separator.</p> <p>Optional elements: <code><include></code>, <code><exclude></code>, <code><tags></code></p> <h3 id="include">include</h3> <p>Controls which files will be included by <em>pull</em> and <em>push</em>. If an include filter is specified, only files matching this filter are included.</p> <p>Type: regex string<br /> Default: .*<br /> Example:</p> <pre><code><filter> <include>\.pdf$</include> </filter></code></pre> <h3 id="exclude">exclude</h3> <p>Controls which files will be excluded by <em>pull</em> and <em>push</em>.</p> <p>Type: regex string<br /> Example:</p> <pre><code><filter> <exclude>^/secretdir</exclude> <exclude>\.DS_Store$</exclude> </filter></code></pre> <h3 id="tags">tags</h3> <p>Filters resources by tags. Only resources, that are not a collection, are effected. If tags are not stored locally, the pull command still uses the filter.</p> <p>Filter Syntax:</p> <pre><code>filter ::= operator? , (tag_list | ("(" , filter , ")")+) tag_list ::= tag , ("," tag)* operator ::= "&" | "|" | "1" | "0"</code></pre> <p>Type: tag filter expression<br /> Example:</p> <pre><code><filter> <!-- sync only resources that have one of this tags --> <tags>| (tag1, tag2, tag3)</tags> </filter></code></pre> </div> <!-- end content --> </body> </html>
