|
72 <h2 id="directory">directory</h2> |
|
73 <p>This element configures a sync-directory. A sync-directory must have a unique name, a (local) path, repository and a database.</p> |
|
74 <p>Required elements: <code><name></code>, <code><repository></code>, <code><path></code>, <code><database></code><br /> |
|
75 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><filter></code></p> |
|
76 <h3 id="name">name</h3> |
|
77 <p>Unique sync-directory identifer. This identifer is used in combination with all <em>dav-sync</em> commands.</p> |

|
79 Example: <code><name>mysyncdir</name></code></p> |
|
80 <h3 id="repository">repository</h3> |

|
87 <p>The part between <code>$</code> and <code>/</code> is the environment variable name.</p> |
|
88 <p>Type: string<br /> |
|
89 Example: <code><path>/absolute/path</path></code></p> |
|
90 <h3 id="database">database</h3> |
|
91 <p>Path to the database file used for this sync-directory. The path must be relative to the <em>$HOME/.dav/</em> directory.</p> |
|
92 <p>Type: string<br /> |
|
93 Example: <code><database>myrepo-db.xml</database></code></p> |
|
94 <h3 id="collection">collection</h3> |
|
95 <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> |
|
96 <p>Type: string<br /> |
|
97 Default: /<br /> |
|
98 Example: <code><collection>/myfiles</collection></code></p> |
|
99 <h3 id="trash">trash</h3> |

|
102 Example: <code><trash>.trash</trash></code></p> |
|
103 <h3 id="max-retry">max-retry</h3> |
|
104 <p>This integer value controls how many attempts of downloading/uploading a file in case of an error are made.</p> |

|
108 <h3 id="backup-on-pull">backup-on-pull</h3> |

124 <p>With the filter element, include and exclude filters can be specified, to control which files are synchronized. The <em>pull</em> and <em>push</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> |
|
125 <p>Note: The file path is relative to the directory path (and WebDAV collection) but always starts with an path separator.</p> |

|
127 <h3 id="include">include</h3> |
