Sync Bee! Can be used to sync files from local filesystem to networked/mapped/mounted drives. Prosynkee-Web uses this package to do it's business!

#Useage

Require sync-bee. Create a SyncBee object. Set some properties. Call setConfigs() passing in a configuration object if you want to set configuration object manually. Or, call loadConfigFile() passing in the full path to a json file containing the configuration object. Call the run() method. It will output status to the console.

Properties on the sync-bee object to set:

testcopy Set to true if you want to display to console the file move (versus actually moving the files; aka a dry run)

testclean Set to true if you want to display to console the files deleted (versus actually deleting the files; aka a dry run)

quietmode Set to true to squash the console output (default = false)

writetofile Set to true to write the results of the sync to a file (default = true)

fileout Set path to a file in which to log the results of the sync (default = "./logs/synced.txt")

Configuration object:

cleans any files that you would like deleted on the target prior to syncing

filebase base path that will be appended to each file (can be left blank if you want to define full path in the files array)

files files you want moved to the target

mountbase base path that will be appended to each directory defined in mountdirs (can be left blank if you want to define full path in the mountdirs array)

mountdirs mounted directory

Example script:

'use strict'
let SyncBee = require('sync-bee')

let confs =
{
    clean       : [],
    filebase    : '/Users/johnny/projects/todoapp/',
    files       : ['controllers/manageController.js','views/manage.html'],
    mountbase   : '/Users/johnny/mounts/',
    mountdirs   : ['dev/','test/']
}

let bee = new SyncBee()
bee.testcopy = true
bee.testclean = false
bee.docopy = true
bee.quietmode = false
bee.writetofile = true
bee.fileout = './last-sync.txt'
if(typeof syncFile==='undefined') bee.setConfigs( confs )
else bee.loadConfigFile( syncFile )
bee.run();
