Paying 'omage to the uncelebrated explorer. rsync convenience wrapper util.

What is does

Don't want to develop remotely? This gem is a convenient rsync wrapper to keep remote and local directories in sync.

• actions - up | down | sync | init
• check local and remote branch name match

Only supports git for now.

Use init to make a new directory with a fresh journey.json.

The sync option first executes a down. It watches for changes on your local filesystem, triggering an up each time.

Check --help.

Installation

Needs Node and npm

~> npm install -g amerigo
~> amerigo -h

Config file syntax

journey.json

{
  "host": "<ssh remote host>",
  "root": "<repo root dir>",
  "user": "<ssh remote username>",
  "expeditions": [
    {
      "remote": "<remote dir>",
      "local": "<local dir>"
    },
    ..
  ],
  "ignores": [
    "<folder-or-filename>",
    ..
  ]
}

• host is the hostname of the server that you are accessing.
• user is your username on the host server
• root is directory that all remote filepaths will be accessed relative to. So if you have a folder project in your home directory, that should be ~/project, and remote: "foo" will resolve to ~/project/foo on the server.
• local is the path to the local directory. Similarly.
