A zc.buildout recipe to copy data from source to target
Project description
Introduction
collective.recipe.rsync is a zc.buildout recipe that makes it easy to synchronize data between two locations, via the rsync program.
It was originally created to make it easier to synchronize Data.fs files between Plone production and development environments. But you can use it to synchronize any tree of data e.g. ZODB blob files, and so on.
Usage
Add a section to your buildout.cfg file, e.g. database:
[buildout] parts += database [database] recipe = collective.recipe.rsync source = aclark@aclark.net:/srv/aclark/var/filestorage/Data.fs target = var/filestorage/Data.fs
Run buildout. You should see:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Running rsync... rsync -av --partial --progress aclark@aclark.net:/srv/aclark/var/filestorage/Data.fs var/filestorage/Data.fs this may take a while!
Alternate ssh port
Optionally, you may specify an alternate ssh port for rsync to use:
[database] recipe = collective.recipe.rsync source = aclark@aclark.net:/srv/aclark/var/filestorage/Data.fs target = var/filestorage/Data.fs port = 22001
