syncthing

This is a set of scripts to package a DroboApp from scratch, i.e., download sources, unpackage, compile, install, and package in a TGZ file.

Using precompiled binary

This makes use of the precompiled binary for arm processors. This means using Syncthing's built in auto-update should work fine. Also this was only tested on Drobo 5N.

Configuration notes

Don't be surprised if this isn't being kept up to date with latest version. Syncthing comes with an auto-update function and will bring you up to the latest version
Because of how DroboApps are contained in the DroboApps share, this does not setup the default Sync folder that's created on new installations since it would be within that DroboApps folder.
Web address is hard coded to 0.0.0.0:8384 or else it would have started listening on 127.0.0.1 which wouldn't be too helpful
When sharing folders can use /mnt/DroboFS/Shares/ to get to all your current shares and can then specify a directory.

I just want to install the DroboApp, what do I do?

Check the releases page. If there are no releases available, then you have to compile.

Place the compiled tgz file in the DroboApps share, or scp the file to /mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps.
Either run /usr/bin/DroboApps.sh install on command line or restart drobo to install

How to compile

First make sure that you have a working cross-compiling VM.

git clone https://github.com/vrillusions/droboapp-syncthing.git
cd droboapp-syncthing
./build.sh
ls -la *.tgz

Each invocation creates a log file with all the generated output.

./build.sh distclean removes everything, including downloaded files.
./build.sh clean removes everything but downloaded files.
./build.sh package repackages the DroboApp, without recompiling.
