--- title: 'dav-sync add-directory' --- This command runs an interactive assistant that creates a [sync-directory configuration][1] and adds it to the sync.xml file. Before running this command, a repository must be created. See [dav add-repository][2]. [1]: ./sync-configuration.html [2]: ./add-repository.html **Command alias:** add-dir The assistant firstly asks for a unique sync-directory name. This may not match the physical directory name. If you are not sure, which names are already in use, you can get a list of currently present sync-directories with [dav-sync list-directories][3]. Then you specifiy the local path, select the dav repository and specify the collection within that repository. You may use environment variables like `$HOME` within the path name. A call of `add-directory` may look like this. $ dav-sync add-directory Each sync directory must have an unique name. name: mysyncdir Enter local directory path. path: $HOME/important_files Specify webdav repository. 0) myfirstrepo 1) anotherrepo repository: 0 Enter collection relative to the repository base url. collection (default: /): /important_files Assume `myfirstrepo` points to `https://mynas.local/webdav`. Then `dav-sync` would synchronize `$HOME/important_files/` with `https://mynas.local/webdav/important_files`. [3]: ./list-directories.html
