NAME¶

smd-server - sends diffs and mails to smd-client

SYNOPSIS¶

smd-server [--exclude glob] [-v|--verbose] [-d|--dry-run]
      [ --get-mddiff-cmdline] [--stop-after-diff]
      [ --override-db dbf] [--dump-stdin tgt] endpoint mailboxes

DESCRIPTION¶

smd-server needs to know a name (endpoint) for the client (that must not be used by others) and a list of mailboxes (directories). smd-server first calls mddiff(1), then prints on stdout the generated diff. It then accepts from stdin a small set of commands a client may issue to request a file (or parts of it, like the header). smd-server is in charge of committing the db file used by mddiff(1) in case the client communicates a successful sync.

OPTIONS¶

-v --verbose

Increase program verbosity (printed on stderr)

-d --dry-run

Do not perform any action for real

-n --no-delete

Do not track deleted files

--exclude glob

Exclude paths matching glob

--override-db dbf

Use dbf as the db-file

--get-mddiff-cmdline

Print the command line used for mddiff and then exist

--stop-after-diff

Send the actions to the other endpoint and exit. If used in conjunction with --override-db, dbf is removed just before exiting

--dump-stdin tgt

Dump standard input to tgt and exit

NOTES¶

smd-server is a low level utility. You should use higher level tools like smd-pull(1) and smd-push(1)
