Syncing

Post by shadowwoelf »

I am currently trying to figure out how to use AndFTP to sync folders. So far I am able to manually upload and download files, but I am at a lose at how to actually do any syncing.

1- Go to "Sync" tab when you configure your FTP settings.
2- Select local or remote mirror. Local mirror means that load folder is the master folder. All files from this folder will be uploaded to remote folder.
3 - Select a local folder
4 - Select a remote folder
5- Go back to "General" tab and click "Save" button.

Alright thanks, now it works. Is there any way to sync multiple folders or is that a feature yet to be implemented?

One folder only for now. A workaround could be to copy your configuration, then you could select new folders, but you will have to click "Sync" button on the two FTP configuration. Not the best but it will work for 2 differents folders pairs.

Is it still just 'one folder for now' ?

I have scattered folders & subfolders that I want to backup ... all in one action. Like the OP asked too, I'm looking for an app that lets me select all the folders to act on, and assign to one step.

Does AndFTP do it yet? If it doesn't, is it on a roadmap?

You can define several configuration and sync each one by one.

So that's a "no", for now, I guess.

Is the capability on the current product roadmap?

We plan a 'Sync all' feature. So you will be able to define one sync folder per configuration and then sync all configurations with one button.
