Aloha!
Here is a first draft of the rsync grimoire update. This script is based on
the CVS url handler, so it currently has at least the same limitations.
Simply put the files attached where they belong, and voilĂ , you can now use
rsync://SOURCE::MODULE urls!
To use:
scribe add <grimoire> rsync://<source>::<grimoire>
Things I had to change:
I used the seemingly unused "url_set_options" function to set a "nocache"
attribute [see the add() and do_update() functions in 'scribe']. This
prevents cvs and rsync URLs (updated url_cvs in the attached file) to pack
the downloaded files, which is a useless waste of time on grimoire updates,
enough to negate any time benefits for broadband users. This needed
modifications to scribe which only accepted tar.bz2 archives.
It seems to work, it only needs some testing on your part (and a rsync
server,
obviously).
I configured my test server with the grimoire name as the rsync share name.
