Add docs #1

Hi,

I am very happy to see you are working on a SmugMug uploader. It seems you abandon the integration with rclone. And I think this is a good decision. Could you please add some docs on how to set this up? Can this recursively synchronize a folder to SM? This is a similar tool.

Thanks, Trung

Or may I suggest to join forces with graveljp/smugcli rather than making a new one from scratch?

Hi Trung,

Thanks for getting in touch!

I've actually not given up on rclone (in the scheme of things, that would be a better fit for my personal setup), but this is more of a learning exercise to better understand how the SmugMug API works. I'm still wondering whether the API maps to the needs of rclone, and this is a way to find out.

It's still very much in development (it actually doesn't upload anything yet! it just creates folders recursively :-)). So, if you're looking for something you can use today, I'd suggest looking elsewhere (or submitting a PR :-))

Also, thanks for pointing out smugcli, I'll check it out. I'll keep on making my version, for my own reasons, but I may find a way to join forces with graveljp at some point as well.

Kind regards, Ed

Thanks for the swift reply. Shameless plug for my own tool: pbtrung/fisheye - Turn an arbitrary file into an 8-bit grayscale encrypted PNG image. Well, SM offers unlimited storage for images. With fisheye, every kind of abuse is possibble :) (e.g., turn SM into a cloud backup for your files). I would love to see more testing/code review/abuse of this tool. Please!
