**resync** is a ResourceSync client and library in python. `ResourceSync
|
|
<http://www.openarchives.org/rs/>`_ is a synchronization framework for
|
|
the web consisting of various capabilities that allow third party
|
|
systems to remain synchronized with a server's evolving resources.
|
|
The capabilities can be combined in a modular manner to meet local
|
|
or community requirements.
|
|
|
|
Client usage
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Typical client usage to synchronize from a source at
|
|
``http://source.example.com/`` to a set of local files would be::
|
|
|
|
resync http://source.example.com/
|
|
|
|
which will create or update a local directory ``./source.example.com``.
|
|
Alternatively, the destination directory may be specified explicitly::
|
|
|
|
resync http://source.example.com/ /tmp/my_copy
|
|
|
|
Option details and a number of different modes are described with::
|
|
|
|
resync -h
|
|
|
|
Library usage
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Typical library usage in a source::
|
|
|
|
from resync.resource_list import ResourceList
|
|
from resync.resource import Resource
|
|
|
|
rl = ResourceList()
|
|
rl.add( Resource('http://example.com/res1', lastmod='2013-01-01') )
|
|
rl.add( Resource('http://example.com/res2', lastmod='2013-01-02') )
|
|
print rl.as_xml()
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The client and library are designed to work with Python 2.6 or 2.7.
|
|
|
|
**Automatic installation**::
|
|
|
|
easy_install resync
|
|
|
|
rsync is listed in `PyPI
|
|
<http://pypi.python.org/pypi/resync>`_ and can be installed with
|
|
``pip`` or ``easy_install``.
|
|
|
|
**Manual installation from github**::
|
|
|
|
cd /tmp
|
|
git clone git://github.com/resync/resync.git
|
|
cd resync/
|
|
python setup.py build
|
|
sudo python setup.py install
|
|
|
|
This will install the library code in the appropriate place within
|
|
your python setup, and the client ``resync`` in an appropriate system
|
|
path (perhaps ``/usr/local/bin`` or ``/usr/bin`` depending on your system).
|
|
|
|
The source code is maintained on `Github
|
|
<https://github.com/resync/resync>`_
|
|
and there may be branches/versions available there that are not
|
|
yet packaged for `PyPI
|
|
<http://pypi.python.org/pypi/resync>`_.
