The application has only been tested on Python 3.7.3 x86_64 on Windows. However, I don't see why it wouldn't work on *NIX as well.
|
||||
Note that Windows' default conhost terminal emulator may have problem displaying unicode characters. I personally run it in PyCharm CE or Visual Studio Code Terminal.

1. Install dependencies requirements.
|
||||
1. Create a [virtual environment](https://packaging.python.org/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/) and activate it (optional / recommended)
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 -m venv /path/to/new/venv
|
||||
*NIX: source /path/to/new/venv/bin/activate
|

Windows: C:\path\to\new\env\Scripts\activate

1. Install dependencies requirements.
|
||||
```Shell
|
||||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||||
```

If you don't like to install packages to global/user scopes, you can also setup [virtual environment](https://packaging.python.org/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/)

|
||||
1. Changing the settings in `sync_settings.json`. Please validate the JSON files and make sure all the fields are populated with correct value. Incorrect settings are undefined behaviour which means anything can happens from functioning correctly to causing nuclear bomb.
|
||||
1. Navigate to `conf/` directory and make a copy of each `.sample.json` files renaming each to remove `.sample` (ie, rename the copy to `sync_settings.json`).
|
||||
Edit those files to populate the correct values.
|
||||
|
||||
## Run the code
|
||||
|
||||
Run `main.py` in the terminal to start the application.
|
||||
|
||||
The program accept three optional positional parameters
|
||||
- Remote base ItemID (such as `ABC12345678DEFG!1234567`). If not provided, will use jobs in `sync_settings.json`.
|
||||
- Remote base directory. leave empty or `/` for root.
|
||||
- Local base directory. leave empty for working directory. For Windows, please only use `/`, such as `D:/downloads/OneDrive`.
|
||||
|
||||
On launch, the program will interactively ask for confirmation before starting any action, unless overridden with `-y` or `--yes`.
|
||||
- Remote ItemID (such as `87654321012`). This can be found on the URL when browsing on box.com website. User's root directory is `0`. If not provided, will use jobs in `sync_settings.json`.
|
||||
- Local directory that will represent the remote directory. Leave empty or use `.` for working directory (not tested).
|
||||
|
||||
See `--help` for more information.
