NAME¶
nextcloudcmd - Command line Nextcloud client tool. nextcloudcmd(1) —————
nextcloudcmd [OPTIONS...] sourcedir nextcloudurl
nextcloudcmd is the command line tool used for the nextCloud file synchronization desktop utility.
Contrary to the 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:
- --path
- Overrides default remote root folder to a specific subfolder on the server(e.g.: /Documents would sync the Documents subfolder on the server)
- —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
- Do not prompt for questions.
- —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.
- —exclude [file]
- Exclude list file
- —unsyncedfolders [file]
- File containing the list of unsynced folders (selective sync)
- —max-sync-retries [n]
- Retries maximum n times (defaults to 3)
- -h
- Sync hidden files,do not ignore them
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 --path /Music \
$HOME/media/music \
https://server/nextcloud
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 --path /Music \
$HOME/media/music \
ownclouds://server/nextcloud
