add to syncd
--rsh \"ssh -p $PORT\"
in
COMMAND="rsync $RSYNC_OPTIONS --exclude=$RSYNC_EXCLUDE --delete $WATCH_DIR/ --rsh \"ssh -p $PORT\" $SSH_USER@$SSH_HOST:$REMOTE_TARGET_DIR"

To syncd.conf add
PORT=22

And in syncd change line to

run)
     eval $COMMAND && echo Done.
    ;;

I'm having an issue with syncd, where having set it up as per the ReadMe, on making any changes I am not given any time to enter my ssh password and get an error.

Steps to replicate:

1. Run syncd start
2. Make changes to a file (with file and terminal open side by side)
3. Go to terminal, (see pasted output below)

The password prompt appears mulitple times, but automatically goes straight to permission denied a number of times, without me having had the chance to enter my ssh password. As expected this causes rsync to fail.

Syncd then appears to hang, and there is no further updates to the output. However, while further changes do get added to the log, nothing gets synced.

Output from command:

FYI
Made several improvements and will maintain

Just want to use syncd locally but script is only set up for ssh.

I just changed this line

COMMAND="rsync $RSYNC_OPTIONS --exclude=$RSYNC_EXCLUDE --delete $WATCH_DIR/ $SSH_USER@$SSH_HOST:$REMOTE_TARGET_DIR"

to

COMMAND="rsync $RSYNC_OPTIONS --exclude=$RSYNC_EXCLUDE --delete $WATCH_DIR/ $REMOTE_TARGET_DIR"

Would be sweet if the SSH setting were not supplied (commented out) then the script would assume local.

Would be even sweeter if I made a PR. Bash is not my bag but I'll give it a shot when I have some "spare time".

Thx...great little repo!

This looks exactly like what I need. I'm going to be using something like this in development, since I need to sync with a development server. The lack of activity on this PR is a little concerning though. Is this project still actively maintained?

I would like to make use of this script to sync the single source directory to multiple hosts that share the same destination directory.

If I present a list of host names in the config file, ideally it would iterate over them and issue the rsync command to each one.

SSH_HOST = fileserver-1.dm.com, fileserver-2.dm.com something like this possible?

Not every rsync setting should includes --delete option to rsync.
It's like I don't want much clutter to be downloaded from a remote site.
If I'm not very carefull of adding every folder to the --exclude options then I'll be in big big trouble.
