Basic Usage:

1. Copies src_path to trg_path. Takes both files and directories as source. If given source is a file and it's part of a sequence it'll find and copy the entire sequence of files.

from synchronizer import copier
copier.process_paths(src_path, trg_path, force_overwrite=True, **kwargs)

kwargs: include_tx = True only_tx = True find_sequence = True

2. Compares two files or directory paths and return sync status. Sync status refers to name and os.stat() comparisons

from synchronizer import syncstatus
syncstatus.get_sync_status(
            src_path, trg_path,
            ignore_name=False,
            ignore_stats=['st_uid', 'st_gid', 'st_atime',
                    'st_ctime', 'st_ino', 'st_dev'])

3. Compares two paths and returns whichever has the most recent stat time. Default stat used for comparison is st_mtime which is: Time of most recent content modification.

from synchronizer import syncstatus
syncstatus.get_most_recent(src_path, trg_path, use_stat='st_mtime')

4. Find and return all files that are part of a sequence matching file_path. If no sequence found, returns None. Two files are enough to make a sequence, even if they're not sequential. This assumes the sequence digits are right beside the file extension. ie: C_myfile_v568.jpg MJ_thisisafileseq_455868.dpx MB_udimsforthewin.1008.tx

from synchronizer import utils
utils.get_sequence_files(file_path)
