DESCRIPTION

Lsyncd(1) watches local directory trees through an event monitor interface
|
|
|
|
|
(inotify, fsevents). It aggregates and combines events for a few seconds and
|
|
|
|
|
then spawns one or more processes to synchronize the changes. By default this
|
|
|
|
|
is rsync(1). Lsyncd is thus a light-weight asynchronous live mirror solution
|
|
|
|
|
that is comparatively easy to install not requiring new filesystems or
|
2013-05-04 03:11:09 +00:00
|
|
|
block devices and does not hamper local filesystem performance.
|
2010-11-30 13:20:12 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Rsync+ssh is an advanced action configuration that uses a SSH(1) to act file
|
2013-05-04 03:11:09 +00:00
|
|
|
and directory moves directly on the target instead of re-transmitting the move
|
2010-11-30 13:20:12 +00:00
|
|
|
destination over the wire.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2011-08-25 11:34:44 +00:00
|
|
|
Fine-grained customization can be achieved through the CONFIG-FILE. Custom
|
|
|
|
|
action configs can even be written from scratch in cascading layers ranging
|
|
|
|
|
from shell scripts to code written in the LUA(1) language. This way simplicity
|
|
|
|
|
can be balanced with powerfulness. See the online manual for details on the
|
2017-07-29 16:00:05 +00:00
|
|
|
CONFIG-FILE https://axkibe.github.io/lsyncd/manual/config/file/ .
|
2011-08-25 11:34:44 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that under normal configuration Lsyncd will delete pre-existing files in
|
|
|
|
|
the target directories that are not present in the respective source directory.
