The app has been available on Android devices for a little over a month now, but made its iOS debut recently, making it all the more valuable by expanding the amount of devices you can sync files across. But none do it like BitTorrent Sync does. It’s a pretty common need and there are about 18,000 different services that do it. Sync uses JSON format for the configuration file.Chances are, if you need an app to sync the photos and videos from your phone to your computer, you’ve already found a few options to get the job done. If you wish for this module to locate it automatically, you need to name it btconfig and add its path to the environment path variable. The config file may be located in any directory on your drive. On Mac and Linux, run the Sync executable with -config path_to_file argument. This can be achieved either through the function start_btsync, or manually: To enable the API, you must run BitTorrent Sync with the config file. Once BitTorrent Sync is installed, either add its executable's location to the system path, or pass the location of the executable and the config file to the start_btsync function. You will need an API key, for which you'll need to apply here: No other non-perl requirements are needed.

In order to run these commands you must have a running instance of the BitTorrent Sync client, available for download here. or by any third party, including the US Government or any Agency on behalf of the US Government. Therefore, there is no guarantee whatsoever that the communication between nodes is not being monitored by BitTorrent Inc. The BitTorrent Sync technology and the existing BitTorrent Sync client are not open source or free software, nor are their specs available in any shape or form other than the API. It can be used to connect your Perl application to a running BitTorrent Sync instance, in order to perform any action such as adding, removing folders/files, querying them, setting preferences, and fetch information about the BitTorrent Sync instance. This is a complete wrapper of the published BitTorrent Sync API. In addition, folders and files can be shared as read-only, or as read and write. The more nodes the network has, the faster the data will be synched between the nodes, allowing for very fast exchange rates. It uses "secrets", a unique hash string given for each folder that replaces the need for a tracker machine. Remove_folder($folders->->) DESCRIPTIONīitTorrent Sync uses the BitTorrent protocol to sync files between two or more machines, or nodes (computers or mobile phones) without the need of a server.
