Synchronize data

Mon, 10 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The Synchronize view runs all or selected tasks in a single operation via shortcut actions or toolbar functions.

For a single task, the first double-click initiates a --dry-run estimate; a second double-click executes the actual run.

Shortcut actions within the Synchronize view:

estimate - shortcut ⌘E estimates all or selected tasks
synchronize - shortcut ⌘R synchronizes all or selected tasks without estimation
- no progress bar during synchronization; a progress bar requires estimation first
abort - shortcut ⌘K aborts and halts any ongoing task

RsyncUI opens the Synchronize view at launch. Click the wand and stars (shortcut ⌘E) on the toolbar to estimate all tasks.

URL commands

Deep links provide direct access to app features via URL. Using deep links, you can estimate and synchronize in a single click. Deep links in RsyncUI group actions that typically require multiple steps.

There are three methods of using deep links:

enable RsyncUI widgets
use URL functions direct within RsyncUI
save a URL link in e.g., Notes

One widget is embedded in RsyncUI:

estimating and synchronizing

The widget retrieves a saved URL from storage. In the Tasks view, there is a URL view where you can save the required URL. The widget shows whether a validated URL is present. To enable the widget on macOS, click the date and time icon in the upper right corner of your screen. Edit widgets and select RsyncUI, then add the widget.
