syncspirit v.0.4.0 release!

I’m glad to announce v0.4.0 release!

The major feature of the new release is fltk-frontend and improvements BEP protocol implementation.

You can download ready-to-use binaries for Linux x86_64, Windows (WindowsXP is supported!) and Mac OS X (Apple silicon).

Syncspirit is a syncthing-compatible synchronization program that implements BEP-protocol. Syncspirit is a syncthing-compatible is written from the scratch software in C++ as classical desktop application, which had different technical decisions on its foundation to overcome syncthing limitations.

Sync

  • I think it will always stay compatible on protocol level.

  • That tools does what I always think was possible to do, or am I missing something?

    I think the problem is that they do not share the whole communication protocol/model with GUI/client and it has only feature to block something aposteriory masks, while the whole folder with all files is already shared with client's device. The original syncthing database scheme also seems does not supporting this.

    Technically, from a protocol view level, there is no problem just to ask a single file to download and share only it.

  • I think because of that they do not implement "selective sync" feature, i.e. when you need to sync only a slice of remote directory.

    syncspirit v.0.3.0 release!

    I’m glad to announce v0.3.0 release!

    The major feature of the new release is the implementation of complete file synchronization, i.e., the ability to send and receive files. To identify local changes, a periodical folder full scan is performed.

    You can download ready-to-use binaries for Linux and Windows as well as the source code.
