The ownCloud Client packages contain a command line client, ``owncloudcmd``, that can be used to synchronize ownCloud files to client machines. ``owncloudcmd`` performs a single *sync run* and then exits the synchronization process. In this manner, ``owncloudcmd`` processes the differences between client and server directories and propagates the files to bring both repositories to the same state. Contrary to the GUI-based client, ``owncloudcmd`` does not repeat synchronizations on its own. It also does not monitor for file system changes. To invoke ``owncloudcmd``, you must provide the local and the remote repository URL using the following command:: owncloudcmd [OPTIONS...] sourcedir owncloudurl where ``sourcedir`` is the local directory and ``owncloudurl`` is the server URL. Other command line switches supported by ``owncloudcmd`` include the following: ``--user``, ``-u`` ``[user]`` Specify the user's login name. ``--password``, ``-p`` ``[password]`` Specify the user's password. ``-n`` Use ``netrc (5)`` for login. ``--non-interactive`` Do not prompt for questions. ``--silent``, ``-s`` Inhibits verbose log output. ``--trust`` Trust any SSL certificate, including invalid ones. ``--httpproxy http://[user@pass:]:`` Uses the specified ``server`` as the HTTP proxy. ``--unsyncedfolders [file]`` File containing list of folders to not sync ``--nonshib`` Uses Non Shibboleth WebDAV Authentication ``--davpath [path]`` Overrides the WebDAV Path with ``path`` Credential Handling ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ``owncloudcmd`` uses the credentials of the GUI synchronization client. If no client is configured, or if you choose to use a different user to synchronize, you can specify the user password setting with the usual URL pattern. For example:: $ owncloudcmd / https://carla:secret@server/owncloud/remote.php/webdav/ To synchronize the ownCloud directory ``Music`` to the local directory ``media/music``, through a proxy listening on port ``8080``, and on a gateway machine using IP address ``192.168.178.1``, the command line would be:: $ owncloudcmd --httpproxy http://192.168.178.1:8080 \ $HOME/media/music \ https://server/owncloud/remote.php/webdav/Music ``owncloudcmd`` will prompt for the user name and password, unless they have been specified on the command line or ``-n`` has been passed.
