Rsync for Tasker
More projects
An Android app providing Tasker plugin actions to allow running rsync over SSH.
Tasker is a very useful and widely used automation app for Android with a
plugin architecture that allows other apps (such as this one) to add extra
functionality.
This app provides the following actions for use within Tasker:
- Generate Private Key - Generates a private key to use for SSH authentication
- Get Public Key - Retrieves a public key from a previously generated private key
- rsync - Run an rsync command to synchronise files to or from the device
- dbclient - Run an SSH command non-interactively (experimental)
The packaged native binaries of Dropbear and rsync are my own builds
which I keep updated with new releases.
Rsync for Tasker is free to use and open source, licensed under the terms of
the
GPL. You can browse or
download the source at the
GitHub repository.
