1.Function

SMBSync 2 is a tool for synchronizing files via wireless LAN using SMB1, SMB2 or SMB3 protocol between the internal storage of Android terminal, SDCARD and PC/NAS. Synchronization is a one-way from the master to the target, mirror, move, copy, archive can be used. (Internal storage, SDCARD, SMB, ZIP combination is possible)

You can start the synchronization by external application (Tasker, AutoMagic etc) or SMBSync2 schedule. Please refer to the Starting from other applications for interface with an external application.

 

*         Mirror

If master and target files are different, to copied files from master to the target directory. To delete target files and directories if does not exist in the master.

*         Move

If master and target files are different, to copied files from master to the target directory. To delete the master directories and files copied to the target.

However, the master and target same name, same file modification time and file size, to delete the file on the master without copying files.

*         Copy

If master and target files are different, to copied files from master to the target directory. However, the same file modification time and file size with the same name does not copy the master and target.

*         Archive

Move photos and videos in the directory on the master side to the target under conditions such as shooting date/time than the date and time of archive execution, such as 7 days or earlier or 30 days or earlier. (However, ZIP can not be used for target)

 

If the determination is satisfied and the differential file one of the following three conditions.

*         File does not exist

*         Different file sizes

*         Different over when last updated 3 seconds

 

About the last update time of the synchronized file

*       Internal storage

It is the same as the source file. For some models, the time will be sync.

*       SMB sharing

It is the same as the source file. However, some NAS will be sync time.

*       SDCARD

On Android 7.0 and higher it is the same as the source file. However, some models are sync time.

*       USB media

On Android 7.0 and higher it is the same as the source file. However, some models are sync time.

 

If you want to sync on a schedule sync or background in Android 6.0 or higher, please disable the optimization of the battery. (Menu -> Disable battery optimization)

 

If the response is not returned from the application when displaying the message tab at the time of sync execution, please try setting -> others -> Enable ”Text processing of sync messages”.

5.Starting from other applications

5.1.Starting from other applications

You can initiate synchronization by issuing an intent with “com.sentaroh.android.SMBSync2.ACTION_START_SYNC” from application to action.

Intent Extra allows you to specify the tasks to synchronize.

Synchronizes the autosync task when Extra is not specified.

Code Example 1 (start synchronous tasks test1 and test2)

Intent in=new Intent("com.sentaroh.android.SMBSync2.ACTION_START_SYNC");

String prof= "test1,test2";

in.putExtra("SyncProfile", prof);

startActivity(in);

 

Code Example 2 (Start all auto-sync tasks)

Intent in=new Intent("com.sentaroh.android.SMBSync2.ACTION_START_SYNC");

startActivity(in);
