blocksync 3.0.1

Synchronize files to a destination(local/remote) using a incremental algorithm

blocksync

This library allows blocksync script to be used as Python package, and supports more convenient and various functions than blocksync script.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8 or later

Features

• Synchronize the destination (remote or local) files using an incremental algorithm.
• Supports all synchronization directions. (local-local, local-remote, remote-local)
• Support for callbacks that can run before(run once or per workers), after(run once or per workers), and during synchronization of files
• Support for synchronization suspend/resume, cancel.
• Most methods support method chaining.
• You can see the overall progress in a multi-threaded environment.
• You can proceed synchronization in the background.
• You can specify the number of workers (number of threads) to perform synchronization.

Installation

pip install blocksync

Quick start

When sync from/to remote, you can check the SSH connection options in paramiko docs.

from blocksync import local_to_local


manager, status = local_to_local("src.txt", "dest.txt", workers=4)
manager.wait_sync()
print(status)

# Output
[Worker 1]: Start sync(src.txt -> dest.txt) 1 blocks
[Worker 2]: Start sync(src.txt -> dest.txt) 1 blocks
[Worker 3]: Start sync(src.txt -> dest.txt) 1 blocks
[Worker 4]: Start sync(src.txt -> dest.txt) 1 blocks
{'workers': 4, 'chunk_size': 250, 'block_size': 250, 'src_size': 1000, 'dest_size': 1000, 'blocks': {'same': 4, 'diff': 0, 'done': 4}}

TODO

• Provide CLI
• Write docs and build a docs website
