# resync

**resync** is a ResourceSync library with supporting client scipts,
written in python.
[ResourceSync](http://www.openarchives.org/rs/) is a synchronization
framework for the web consisting of various capabilities that allow
third party systems to remain synchronized with a server's evolving
resources. The capabilities can be combined in a modular manner to
meet local or community requirements.

## Client usage

Typical client usage to synchronize from a source at
`http://source.example.com/` to a set of local files would be

```
resync-sync http://source.example.com/
```

which will create or update a local directory `./source.example.com`.
Alternatively, the destination directory may be specified explicitly::

```
resync-sync http://source.example.com/ /tmp/my_copy
```

Option details and a number of different modes are described with::

```
resync-sync -h
```

## Python library usage

Typical library use in a source (create and output a Resource List)::

```
from resync import Resource, ResourceList

rl = ResourceList()
rl.add( Resource('http://example.com/res1', lastmod='2013-01-01') )
rl.add( Resource('http://example.com/res2', lastmod='2013-01-02') )
print rl.as_xml()
```

Typical library use in a destination (get and examine a Capability List)::

```
from resync import CapabilityList

# Read Capability List and show supported capabilities
cl = CapabilityList()
cl.read("https://raw.github.com/resync/resync/1.0/resync/test/testdata/examples_from_spec/resourcesync_ex_2_6.xml")
for resource in cl:
    print "supports %s (at %s)" % (resource.capability,resource.uri)
```

## Installation

The client and library are designed to work with Python 3.5 and up. (The
last version supporting Python 2.7 was
[1.0.9, also on PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/resync/1.0.9/))

### Automatic installation

```
pip install resync
```

rsync is listed in [PyPI](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/resync) and can be
installed with `pip` or `easy_install`.

### Manual installation from github

```
cd /tmp
git clone git://github.com/resync/resync.git
cd resync/
python setup.py build
python setup.py install
```

This will install the library code in the appropriate place within
a user-space python setup, including the clients `resync-sync`,
`resync-build` and `resync-explorer`. Use of `sudo` to install in
system spaces is generally discouraged.

The source code is maintained on [Github](https://github.com/resync/resync)
and there may be branches/versions available there that are not
yet packaged for PyPI.
