It's kind of like rsync with database or git annex for dummies.
- Distributed system for storing (binary) files, no central repository required (but sure you can use it in centralized manner).
- Not version control -> near zero overhead, but you still get some information of the file (created, deleted, modified at what time)
- Simple command line interface familiar from git/svn.
- One can revert changes as at least one repository has the data left.
- Standalone, works with python3.5+ - no libraries required
- Currently SSH (=server) and FILE (=usb-disk) remotes supported
- sarch init <repository name>
- sarch add <filenames/paths> - add given files
- sarch add_from <path> - add files from given path, to given folder with YYYY-MM/ folder prefix
- sarch rm <filenames/paths> - remove given files
- sarch status - fast check whats going one (based on file modtime)
- sarch verify - check md5 of every file for corruption.
- sarch commit - commit changes (--auto to automatically add modified/removed files)
- sarch help - to list available commands
- sarch sync <target url>
- sarch log <filenames> - show log of given file
- sarch find_dups - find all duplicate files on the database (based on file checksum)
Requirements: -----------Python with typing is required, i have tested it with python 3.5 that ships with ubuntu 16.04. Automated testing is runned on python 3.6 and python 3.7 on Travis.
Major features missing: ----------* Filesystem locking (to prevent several instances)
Minor todo: ----------* 'export_targz' command to make tar-gz-with 4G limit (FAT). Extra: Update the old package, by reading the database and somehow updating the tar package (that was splitted). * Untracked files should be listed as untracked directory - not all as single files * When transferring files we could also check for possibility of transferring single file and copy that (== when target has copies of files) * Should we be able to name the remotes? "sync origin" * Log on file and conflict resolving should be able to track filename changes due moves * Proper dummy target (http-set/http-get) support
