owncloudcmd(1)

SYNOPSIS

owncloudcmd [OPTIONS...] sourcedir owncloudurl

DESCRIPTION

owncloudcmd is the command line tool for the ownCloud file synchronisation desktop utility, based on mirall.

Contrary to the owncloud(1) GUI client, owncloudcmd will only perform a single sync run and then exit. It thus replaces the ocsync binary used for the same purpose in earlier releases.

A sync run will sync a single local directory with a WebDAV share on a remote ownCloud server.

To invoke the command line client, provide the local and the remote repository: The first parameter is the local directory. The second parameter is the server URL.

Note

Prior to 1.6, the tool only accepted owncloud:// or ownclouds:// in place of http:// and https:// as a scheme. See Examples for details.

OPTIONS

--confdir PATH

The configuration dir where csync.conf is located

--silent

Don't give verbose log output

--httpproxy http://[user@pass:]<server>:<port>

Use server as HTTP proxy

Example

To sync the ownCloud directory Music to the local directory media/music through a proxy listening on port 8080 on the gateway machine 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

Using the legacy scheme, it would look like this:

$ owncloudcmd --httpproxy http://192.168.178.1:8080 \
              $HOME/media/music \
              ownclouds://server/owncloud/remote.php/webdav/Music
