Choose the appropriate script based on your operating system:\n   - `photo_sync.sh` for Unix (Linux, macOS)\n   - `photo_sync.ps1` for Windows\n\n2. Edit the script to set the correct values for:\n   - `SOURCE_DIR`: The directory containing your photos\n   - `S3_BUCKET`: Your rclone remote configuration and S3 bucket path\n\n3. Ensure the script has executable permissions (for Unix):\n   ```\n   chmod +x photo_sync.sh\n   ```\n\n## Usage\n\nBoth scripts support the following commands:\n\n- `start`: Begin the sync process\n- `stop`: Stop the running sync process\n- `restart`: Restart the sync process\n- `status`: Check if a sync process is currently running\n\n### Bash Script (Unix)\n\n```bash\n./photo_sync.sh {start|stop|restart|status}\n```\n\n### PowerShell Script (Windows)\n\n```powershell\n.\\photo_sync.ps1 {start|stop|restart|status}\n```\n\n## Script Details\n\n### photo_sync.sh (Bash)\n\nKey features:\n- Uses Rclone to sync photos to an S3 bucket\n- Manages the sync process with start, stop, restart, and status functions\n- Logs sync activities\n- Handles graceful termination and force killing if necessary\n\n### photo_sync.ps1 (PowerShell)\n\nThis script is designed for Windows systems. It uses PowerShell to manage the sync process.\n\nKey features:\n- Uses Rclone to sync photos to an S3 bucket\n- Manages the sync process with start, stop, restart, and status functions\n- Logs sync activities\n- Handles graceful termination and force killing if necessary\n\n## Customisation\n\nYou can customise the following variables in both scripts:\n\n- `SOURCE_DIR`: Set this to the directory containing your photos\n- `S3_BUCKET`: Set this to your rclone remote configuration and S3 bucket path\n- Adjust rclone parameters in the `start_sync` function to fine-tune the sync process\n\n## Troubleshooting\n\n- If the sync doesn't start, check the log file (`photo_sync.log`) for error messages\n- Ensure rclone is properly configured with your S3 bucket\n- Verify that the source directory exists and is accessible\n- Check that you have the necessary IAM permissions to run the script and access the required S3 bucket\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdenismurphy%2Frclone-photo-sync","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdenismurphy%2Frclone-photo-sync","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdenismurphy%2Frclone-photo-sync/lists"}
