I think a better solution would be to offer a push
and a pull
command instead of a sync
command. That's what odeke-em/drive did for Google Drive.
from dbxcli.
FWIW, the awscli
offers a similar sync functionality to what is being proposed here:
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3/sync.html
from dbxcli.
We may be able to just add a --sync
flag to the put
command. #54, if it gets merged, will add multiple arguments to put
as well.
from dbxcli.
Try rclone #60 (comment)
from dbxcli.
It should behave like rsync
does. Checking which files to upload and then upload them.
Like I was doing a rsync --checksum local/folder/ dropbox://folder/inside/dropbox/
or vice versa…
from dbxcli.
I also want this feature because my Dropbox account has so many files that the desktop app can't handle well (over 700k files).
With this feature, I can synchronize the folders only when needed, disabling synchronizing folders with many files but infrequently updated (and I want to have the contents both at the local and remote).
from dbxcli.
I created dbxcli-extras as a CLI that calls dbxcli
to solve this and sync a local directory to a dropbox directory.
from dbxcli.
What exactly would happen if I execute sync? Upload all files from source to destination? Or am I misinterpreting your proposal?
from dbxcli.
A command called sync
, to me, would also download each of the files that are missing locally. But then there's the issue of conflicts. How would you be able to figure out whether the local version or the remote version should be the one that gets uploaded? This seems like it would get into the territory of the official dropbox client, which continually syncs things to get closer to avoiding that problem.

Hi all,
dbxcli put
search brought me here. So, I am just putting in an example command for uploading files that I figured:
dbxcli put myfile /myfolder/myfile
- I had to create
myfolder
in my dropbox account first - Specification of the last
myfile
was necessary
Then, follow the instruction on the command line for authentication. I hope it helps folks like me reaching here.
