This directory contains an example for running Syncthing in the background under macOS.

  1. Install the syncthing binary in a directory called bin in your home directory.

  2. Edit the syncthing.plist by replacing USERNAME with your actual username such as jb.

  3. Copy the syncthing.plist file to ~/Library/LaunchAgents.

  4. Log out and in again, or run launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/syncthing.plist.

You probably want to turn off "Start Browser" among the settings to avoid it opening a browser window on each login.

Logs are in ~/Library/Logs/Syncthing.log and, for crashes and exceptions, ~/Library/Logs/Syncthing-Error.log.
