nextcloudcmd(1) —————

SYNOPSIS

nextcloudcmd [OPTIONS...] sourcedir nextcloudurl

DESCRIPTION

nextcloudcmd is the command line tool used for the nextCloud file synchronization desktop utility.

Contrary to the :manpage:`nextcloud(1)` GUI client, nextcloudcmd only performs a single sync run and then exits. In so doing, nextcloudcmd replaces the ocsync binary used for the same purpose in earlier releases.

A sync run synchronizes a single local directory using a WebDAV share on a remote nextCloud server.

To invoke the command line client, provide the local and the remote repository: The first parameter is the local directory. The second parameter is the server URL.

Note

Prior to the 1.6 release of nextcloudcmd, the tool only accepted nextcloud:// or nextclouds:// in place of http:// and https:// as a scheme. See Examples for details.

OPTIONS

—user, -u [user]
Use user as the login name.
—password, -p [password]
Use password as the password.
-n
Use netrc (5) for login.
—non-interactive

—silent, —s
Inhibits verbose log output.
—trust
Trust any SSL certificate, including invalid ones.
—httpproxy http://[user@pass:]<server>:<port>
Uses server as HTTP proxy.
—nonshib
Uses Non Shibboleth WebDAV Authentication
—davpath [path]
Overrides the WebDAV Path with path
—exclude [file]
Exclude list file
—unsyncedfolders [file]
File containing the list of unsynced folders (selective sync)
—max-sync-retries [n]

-h

Example

To synchronize the nextCloud directory Music to the local directory media/music through a proxy listening on port 8080 on the gateway machine 192.168.178.1, the command line would be:

$ nextcloudcmd —httpproxy http://192.168.178.1:8080 \
              $HOME/media/music \
              https://server/nextcloud/remote.php/webdav/Music

nextcloudcmd will enquire user name and password, unless they have been specified on the command line or -n (see netrc(5)) has been passed.

Using the legacy scheme, it would be:

$ nextcloudcmd —httpproxy http://192.168.178.1:8080 \
              $HOME/media/music \
              nextclouds://server/nextcloud/remote.php/webdav/Music
