When a new file is detected a external program. +Additional directories can be added to the damons watch list using a simple +unix socket based command interface. + + +OPTIONS +------- + +The following options can be passed to the *rhdropbox* daemon: + +*-D, --nodaemonize*:: + This option instructs *rhdropbox* to run in foreground + instead of becoming a daemon which is the default. + +*-u, --username <username>*:: + run as this user. If no group is specified (*-g*) the default group of + the user is used. The default is to not drop privileges. + +*-g, --groupname <groupname>*:: + run as this group. If no username is specified (*-u*) this gets ignored. + The default is to not drop privileges. + +*-C, --chroot <path>*:: + Instruct *rhdropbox* to run in a chroot jail. The default is + to not run in chroot. + +*-P, --write-pid <filename>*:: + Instruct *rhdropbox* to write it's pid to this file. The default is + to not create a pid file. + +*-L, --log <target>:<level>[,<param1>[,<param2>[..]]]*:: + add log target to logging system. This can be invoked several times + in order to log to different targets at the same time. Every target + hast its own log level which is a number between 0 and 5. Where 0 means + disabling log and 5 means debug messages are enabled. + + The file target can be used more the once with different levels. + If no target is provided at the command line a single target with the + config *syslog:3,uanytun,daemon* is added. + + The following targets are supported: + + *syslog*;; log to syslog daemon, parameters <level>[,<logname>[,<facility>]] + *file*;; log to file, parameters <level>[,<path>] + *stdout*;; log to standard output, parameters <level> + *stderr*;; log to standard error, parameters <level> + +*-s|--command-sock <unix sock>*:: + *rhdropbox* will listen on this unix socket for incoming commands. See next + chapter for details. The default is /var/run/rhdropbox/cmd.sock + +*-x|--script <script>*:: + The script which should be called when a new file is found. The following parameter + are passed to the scipt: + + *<path>*;; the path to the folder containing the new file + *<filename>*;; the name of the new file relative to <path> + *<filesize>*;; the size of the file right after the event was received, this can be + used to determine wheter the file is complete. The script should + consider a file to be complete when it size doesn't change 3-5seconds + after the event got received. + + +COMMAND INTERFACE +----------------- + +*rhdropbox* is listening for incoming commands at the unix socket speciefied by the +-s|--command-sock parameter. You can connect to this socket for example using +socat: + + # socat UNIX-CONNECT:/var/run/rhdropbox/rhdropbox.sock STDIO + +All commands have to end with '\n'. The following commands are supported: + +*add <path>*:: + Add a path to the list of directories to be watched. If the command succeds nothing + is returned. In case of an error a string of the form "Error: <reason>\n" is returned. + +*remove <path>*:: + Remove the path from the list of directories. If the command succeds nothing + is returned. In case of an error a string of the form "Error: <reason>\n" is returned. + +*status*:: + Returns the complete list of all directories from the wath list. + +*listen [request|status|none]*:: + Add the client to the status and or request listeners. When no parameter is passed to + this command the client listens to all messages. + A status listener gets a list of all directories whenever somebody else adds or removes + a path to the watch list. It also receives the list when somebody sends a status command + to the daemon. + A request listener also receives add and remove requests by other clients connected to + the command interface. + +*log <text>*:: + Print <text> to the logtargets of the daemon. + + +BUGS +---- +Most likely there are some bugs in *rhdropbox*. If you find a bug, please let +the developers know at equinox@helsinki.at. Of course, patches are preferred. + + +AUTHORS +------- + +Christian Pointner <equinox@heslinki.at> + + +COPYING +------- + +Copyright \(C) 2009 Christian Pointner.
