ftp-sync-python

Opensource, A way to safe your data, avoid lost data by Virus, Randsomware

Some functions:

• Upload a folder automatically to FTP server
• Loop sleep 1 hour to scan new file an upload
• Retry when connection is error
• Resume upload a file if remote filesize smaller than local filesize
• Source code file from 001...007... is step by step from very simple to complete this program
• Minizime to TrayIcon
• Python, so cross platform? It can build and run on Linux, MacOS? I only build and run on Windows

This is simple program for my work, so it's not designed a nice UI!

The story

I find many softwares to sync file to FTP Server (or other server like google, s3 amazon), but all are not free and ofcourse no source code. So I make one to my need. I use this to backup my PC to a FTP server.

I'am afraid of Virus, Ransomware, it may be attack my PC, so backup to remote server is a good way to safe data! I saw some people who are victim of virus, ransomware encrypted data ... hacker required pay money to decrypt data... it's really a nightmare.

I keep all my data of my PC more than 20 years to now. I always think about the case if my HDD is die, then data will be lost, so I research many way to backup. This tool is belong series of tool in my backup system. I will update here when I have time to complete other documents about backup (it will be: Build ftp server, use Veeam Software...)
