Custom steps |
|
Easy2Sync can in certain situations before or after the sync execute custom steps. Each line is one step that is executed as Windows command (similar to a batch file).
You can use the place holder %1 (and for some situations %1 and %2) for the path (the paths) of the situation. If you want to simulate keyboard input for the run program (e.g. for "Are you sure (y/n)" confirmations), you can do this by appending "<<Text".
The following situations can trigger the execution of custom steps:
| • | Before checking the folders |
| • | After creating a base folder (Only when one of the base folders was created. Won't be called for normal subdirectories.) |
| • | Before the sync |
| • | After a successful sync (Is run after the sync was completely run, no matter if all objects were copied successfully.) |
| • | After each sync (Is always run, even if the sync was canceled.) |
Example 1:
A base directory created by Easy2Sync has to receive certain user rights:
After creating a base folder: cacls "%1" /P "computer\user1:F" <<Y cacls "%1" /E /P "computer\user2:F" |
(Since the first cacls call will ask for configuration, this automatically answered with <<Y.)
Example 2:
A TrueCrypt has to be mounted before the sync and unmounted afterwards.
Before checking the folders: C:\programme\truecrypt\truecrypt /v c:\mycontainer /lx |
After each sync: C:\programme\truecrypt\truecrypt /d |
Example 3:
A program has to be started without Easy2Sync waiting for it to end:
Start "[NAME]" /B /D "[ProgramPath]" [Program] [ProgramParameter]
