| + | ===== [[synchronize_any]] Shortcut to synchronize any local file with remote directory ===== | ||
| + | You may want to have script that synchronizes any local directory with a same-named subdirectory of fixed remote path, e.g.: | ||
| + | * ''c:\www\gallery'' with ''/home/user/www/gallery''; | ||
| + | * ''c:\documents and settings\martin\www\forum'' with ''/home/user/www/forum'. | ||
| + | Such script is particularly useful for integrating with Windows Explorer's 'Send To' menu. | ||
| + | First create wrapper batch file to store the paths you want to synchronize into environment variables (change ''/home/user/www/'' to remote path root you want to synchronize against): | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | set LOCAL=%1 | ||
| + | set REMOTE="/home/user/www/%~n1%~x1" | ||
| + | winscp.com /script=example.txt | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | The script ''example.txt'' may look like: | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code winscp> | ||
| + | # Being intended for interactive session, we are not enabling batch mode | ||
| + | # Connect | ||
| + | open session | ||
| + | # Synchronize paths provided via environment variables | ||
| + | synchronize remote %LOCAL% %REMOTE% | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Then you can make a shortcut to the batch file: | ||
| + | * When placed on desktop, you can drop any local directory to it to start synchronization; | ||
| + | * When placed to ''C:\Documents and Settings\username\SendTo'', you can use //Send To > Your Shortcut'' from context menu of any local directory. | ||
