Introduction
|
|
|
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Seafile is a distributed file synchronization client/server. A user
|
|
|
|
|
first creates a synchronized folder on a server, then sync it with any
|
|
|
|
|
local folder. It is distributed in the sense that a client can sync
|
|
|
|
|
with any server, public key authentication is used, no login from
|
|
|
|
|
client is required.

Feature Summary
|
|
|
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Seafile can be used to build a full-fledged cloud storage platform. It
|
|
|
|
|
has following features:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Full web operations like create folders, upload files, move files.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Synchronizing on demand (every client can choose what to sync)
|
|
|
|
|
3. Sync with existing folders
|
|
|
|
|
4. Sharing groups, users can create and join groups.
|
|
|
|
|
5. Full version operation like SyncFolder history, single file history,
|
|
|
|
|
file restore.
|
|
|
|
|
6. Organizations, users can create and join organizations like github.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Seafile uses GIT's version control model, but simplified for automatic
|
|
|
|
|
file synchronization. Every synchronized folder is like a
|
|
|
|
|
GIT repository. It has its own unique history, which consists of a
|
|
|
|
|
list of commits. File history, commit diff, etc., are all supported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Multiple storage backends can be used to store metadatas and files.
