Installation

HostnExtra Sync is installed as a plugin for the HostnExtra CLI.

Requirements

Before installing the plugin, make sure your system has:

The remote server must also have rsync installed.

If the HostnExtra CLI is not already installed:

npm install -g hostnextra

Install the Sync plugin:

hostnextra plugin add sync

List installed plugins:

hostnextra plugin list

You can also check the Sync plugin directly:

hostnextra sync status

Check whether rsync is installed locally:

rsync --version

If rsync is not installed, install it using your operating system's package manager.

sudo apt install rsync

sudo dnf install rsync

sudo pacman -S rsync

HostnExtra Sync requires rsync on the remote server as well.

The plugin checks for remote rsync availability before starting synchronization.

If it is unavailable, install it on the remote server.

sudo apt install rsync

sudo dnf install rsync

sudo pacman -S rsync

Update the Sync plugin to the latest available version:

hostnextra plugin update sync
