We will add sync support for jotta-cli.
I don't have an eta but we are working on it.
It'd be awesome to have this supported. Right now, working with the client on Linux for "regular user" activities (just a simply sync) is finicky at best.
When is the jotta-cli sync support coming? I found an old thread from 2018(!) where people were asking for this.
Would be really awesome !!! Im also waiting for this feature for a while. All my computers and soon clients will be using Linux systems....and this would be mandatory for such a system setup, cant install an extra computer with OSX ....and for sure not a windows pc !!
Any updates on when we can expect the sync feature for jotta-cli? This is the missing feature that prevents me from switching to Jottacloud for all my devices? Do you need any help from the community? Maybe go open source? There are several people out there both capable and willing to contribute. :) Hope to see the feature soon!
Great that sync is in the works! I'd like to add that I find it especially useful for a sync feature to allow the user to specify which folders will synchronize with which folders. That's to say, it'd be really nice to be able to tell Jottacloud to sync folder A (computer 1) with folder B (computer 2) rather than have a single sync folder that both computers function with.
More info on sync support for jotta-cli would be most welcome!
Hi all, you can now test sync on the unstable channel (version 0.9.40199). It is currently in beta and we'll release it to stable once we're sure it's ready.
If you would like to give it a try, have a look at the README to find out how to get unstable. Then run jotta-cli sync
to see how to get started.
Awesome, running it now!
Where's the docs on this? I'm running version 0.11.44593 and I can't see anything on this... jotta-cli sync
doesn't do anything.
EDIT: Alright, I misunderstood the logic here. I assumed that version 0.11.x would have merged with the sync branch but apparently it hasn't, sync functionality is still exclusively a part of the unstable repo: https://github.com/jotta/jotta-cli-issues#using-unstable-with-aptdeb
Make sure you are running the latest version of jotta-cli before reporting an issue.
jotta-cli release (
jotta-cli version
): jottad version : 0.6.21799 jotta-cli version : 0.6.21799Description of problem: Can't synchronize files between Ubuntu desktop and Android phone because I can't find out how to add a synchronization folder to Ubuntu Desktop. None of the available commands in jotta-cli (output of jotta-cli --help) mentions synchronization folder.
Expected: Can synchronize files between all systems as advertised: https://docs.jottacloud.com/en/articles/1292897-what-is-the-jottacloud-synchronization-folder "The Jottacloud sync folder is a unique folder that is automatically synchronizes to all your computers and devices.
This means that files and folders you move or store in the Sync-folder, will automatically be uploaded to Jottacloud. All actions done locally (renaming, deleting, moving etc.) will also be done/mirrored on Jottacloud.
Folders that you would like to synchronize, can be drag and dropped into the Jottacloud sync folder, that you find under "Favorites" in your computers file browser."
