Developer Request: Full Cloud Sync Access via iClone & incond
Wondering if any developers have looked at enabling a full cloud syncing add-onfor OS6 using rClone (http://rclone.org/) which can sync with practically all cloud base systems and triggering the sync using incrond (http://www.linux-magazine.com/Issues/2014/158/Monitoring-with-incron)?
I'm seriously considering using this solution but wondering if others have tried it. Obviously would be lovely to get this in an add-on with a GUI rather than command line.
Right now the only problem I can see is that unlike the commercial apps for GoogleDrive, Dropbox etc. without polling it won't be possible to proactively push changes in the cloud back down to the ReadyNAS. rClone can be setup using regular crond to do the polling - but its not very eligant or efficient.
Wondering if a ReadyNAS app developer would be interested in putting together a UI for a rClone / incrond solution? (Will post to that forum shortly)
This would be far more complete far more quickly than the services slowly appearing on the Cloud Tab...
