Info from rsync.net for photo-dash

Overview

The photo-dash project is a series of modules and an endpoint. This repository specifically features some integration with rsync.net, specifically in regards to quotas.

Usage

After setup, run photo-dash-rsync.net.sh.

Requirements

This code is designed around the following:

• Bash
• bc: math
• curl: requests
• jq: JSON parsing
• ssh should already be set up with password-less login, ideally restricting a key to only call the quota command
  • have a look at the example for ideas

Setup

0. Make sure both bc, curl, and jq are installed on your local machine. You should also already have ssh installed and set up on the rsync.net host. You may restrict the command for your key to only call quota. You should also add an entry to ~/.ssh/config for quicker access.
1. Copy and rename the configuration to config.json. Both ssh_host and endpoint are not optional; ssh_user is optional. ssh_host is your host but can be represented in ~/.ssh/config, a more granular approach to host management.
2. Try connecting to the host, preferably with a command like this: ssh rsync.net quota. (In this example, rsync.net is a host configuration with user and server defined.) You will need to accept the fingerprint before your command will continue. If you plan to run this automatically, also make sure that password-less login works.
3. Run photo-dash-rsync.net.sh, preferably with cron.
