Sync process #12

Closed pankus closed 1 year ago

pankus commented 1 year ago

I have a very trivial question about the synchronization process. As I read from the documentation, on the first startup I have to run the flask kerko sync command. In case my Zotero collection is updated, are subsequent updates automatic, or do I have to run the flask kerko sync command again? In the second case, is there any way to automate the process?

Updates only happen when you run the flask kerko sync command. The usual way to automate this is to have a scheduling system to run the command regularly, e.g., cron, anacron. This installation guide, which includes setting up the cron job, could serve as an example.
