collective.recipe.rsync 1.7

Specify alternate SSH port

Optionally, you may specify an alternate SSH port for rsync to use:

[filestorage]
recipe = collective.recipe.rsync
source = aclark@aclark.net:/srv/aclark/var/filestorage/Data.fs
target = var/filestorage/Data.fs
port = 22001

Run buildout; you should see:

Running rsync...
  rsync -e 'ssh -p 22001' -av --partial --progress aclark@aclark.net:/srv/aclark/var/filestorage/Data.fs var/filestorage/Data.fs
  this may take a while!
...

Create a script

Optionally, you may create a rsync script to execute later. Just configure script = true like so:

[sample]
recipe = collective.recipe.rsync
source = sample_input.txt
target = sample_input_copy.txt
script = true

Run buildout; you should see:

$ bin/buildout
...
Installing sample.
Generated script '/Users/aclark/Developer/collective/collective.recipe.rsync/bin/rsync-sample'.

Notice that rsync is no longer executed when you run buildout. You may now run the rsync script whenever you like:

$ bin/rsync-sample
...
Running rsync...
  rsync -e 'ssh -p None' -av --partial --progress sample_input.txt sample_input_copy.txt
  this may take a while!
...

Further, you may now execute an rsync script automatically via cron (see: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/z3c.recipe.usercrontab).
