[[Now Implemented!] Selective Pause]

UP...

 

Selective sync based on the presence of a file in the root directory would be very cool !!!

 

making the file name configurable per shared folder would be "cooler" ( maybe using regexp)

 

Use cases:

 

- Let's say I use keepassx to store secrets and I'd like to share the .kdb between my computers. with the requested feature implemented, as soon as I open the .kdb file, btsync would stop synching the folder

 

- Dito for sharing a lightroom catalog between computers... as soon as the .lock file is created by lightroom when opening the catalog, the sync would pause and resume when Lightroom closes the catalog.

[Temporarly Pause Sync On A Folder By Folder Basis ( Scripted)]

Hello,

 

I'm currently using btsync to sync my lightroom catalog between my machines.

 

It works very well BUT

 

I NEED to pause synching before starting lightroom else my catalog is at "corruption" risk !

 

I'd like to automate: 

- pause sync of lightroom catalog software

- start lightroom

- as soon as lightroom is finished, unpause sync

 

Is there a way to script that ?

 

for me, the easiest would be a .sync-paused file in the synched folder 

- touch .sync-paused

- start lightroom

- rm .sync-paused ...

Thanks in advance..

Etienne
