A small wrapper script for unison that uses libnotify to indicate when unison started and how it completed.
The script can be called via cron or anacron to automate data synchronisation.
Preview 1 (Ubuntu)
Preview 2 (Ubuntu)
The only requirement for the main script is unison (should be on the system PATH) and the python-notify package.
On ubuntu or debian run:
apt-get install python-notify unison
Create unison profiles for the folders you want to
synchronize and optionally add scripts to /etc/cron.hourly to automatically
run the synchronisation with anacron:
#!/bin/sh # run unison sync as user foo for profile bar sudo -u foo -H /home/foo/.local/bin/Unisonotify/unisonotify.py bar
