Long option usage

python mSync.py [--mode=(check|upload|download)] --localdir=<local_dir> --url=<midas_url> --email=<midas_user_email>  --apikey=<midas_api_key> --folderid=<midas_folder_id>

Options

Short option Long option Argument Meaning
-h --help N/A
-m --mode check OR upload OR download running mode (if this option is not set, check is used as the default mode)

-u --email midas_url root url of the target Midas instance
-a --apikey midas_api_key Midas user's api key
-f --folderid midas_folder_id target folder id of the Midas instance

Example

  • Root url of the target Midas is http://msyncexmaple.com/midas
