- Updated logging messages to include browser mode information when sending and receiving file lists. - Added warnings for cases where the sync directory is not set. - Improved file request and sync logging to provide clearer insights into the synchronization process. - Implemented checks for incomplete file downloads, including size mismatches and chunk counts, with appropriate logging for errors and warnings.
RNS FileSync
P2P file synchronization with delta sync over Reticulum. Only changed blocks are transmitted making it bandwidth efficient.
Installation
pip install rns --break-system-packages
# or
pipx install rns
git clone https://github.com/Sudo-Ivan/RNS-Filesync.git
cd RNS-Filesync
Usage
Start syncing:
python rns_filesync.py -d ~/shared # or whatever directory you want to sync
Connect to peer:
python rns_filesync.py -d ~/shared -p <peer_destination_hash>
Options
-d PATH Directory to sync (required)
-i NAME Identity name
-p HASH Peer to connect (multiple allowed)
-n No monitoring (one-time sync)
--permissions-file Permissions file path
--allow HASH Allow peer
--perms LIST Permissions (read,write,delete)
--no-tui Disable TUI
-v, -vv, -vvv Verbosity
Commands
status Show file and peer count
peers List peers
connect <hash> Connect to peer
browse <peer> Browse peer files
download <file> Download file
download_all Download all from peer
logs View logs
quit Exit
Permissions
Create permissions.conf:
# Full access
a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8 read,write,delete
# Read-only
9876543210fedcba read
# Public read
* read
Use:
python rns_filesync.py -d ~/shared --permissions-file permissions.conf
How It Works
- Files divided into 4KB blocks, each hashed
- Only changed blocks transmitted (delta sync)
- SHA-256 ensures integrity
- Scans directory every 5 seconds
- Mesh distribution (peers relay files)
- Last write wins (no conflict resolution)
