![]() ![]() Method 3: uses Resilio Sync in place of Chronosyncġ: Mac: Resilio Sync, Obsidian app, iCloud The disadvantage is you cannot get the goodies of Obsidian on the iPad. The advantage of the Devonthink approach is that you don't need Wifi to sync the folders. This approach seems more reliable and to the extent that DT is a very capable application edit markdown files, it works really great with Obsidian of the desktop. Devonthink on the mac can index the local folder inside Dropbox, and sync them to the iPad. But, Syncovery doesn't support iCloud.Īnother alternative for the iPad is to use Devonthink in place of Obsidian. Another great option to push the folder to clouds would have been Syncovery. The reason why I prefer Chronosync is that it allows fine-tuning (scheduling) of the syncing task. Once you created your vault there, go to Chronosync and tell it to sync the local folder (the one inside Dropbox folder) with that of the iCloud. Make the Obsidian app inside the iPad to create its vault inside iCloud. Changes made inside the iPad is pulled back to my mac by Chronosync (via icloud), and changes made inside the Android phone is pushed to Dropbox and finally back to mac by the FolderSync and Dropbox client.įor the iCloud setup, you need to start from the iPad. Now, any change made inside mac is distributed both to Dropbox cloud and iCloud by the Dropbox client and Chronosync respectively. Inside the Mac, open Chronosync and configure one local folder (the folder inside the Dropbox), and one remote folder, which is the folder inside the iCloud folder. Now, the trick is to connect the folder inside the iCloud with the folder inside Dropbox. Any change made inside the ipad will be pushed to the Icloud. ![]() What I did is create my Vault inside iCloud folder inside my iPad. Now, the challenge has been on the IOS side. The FolderSync app on my Android phone catches the changes from the Dropbox cloud and updates them to a folder on my phone. The Dropbox client uploads files to the Dropbox cloud when I make changes. I set up my Vault inside my Dropbox folder on the mac. This system works for syncing Obsidian across 3 types of devices:ġ: Mac: Chronosync, Dropbox client, Obsidian app This uses Chronosync to push local Vault to iCloud: ![]() It might be cool to have a chmod/ chown equivalent on Windows, perhaps written in some scripting language, which in turn calls attrib and cacls (or successors), but I don't have one.3 different alternative systems for the Sync in Obsidian across multiple operating systems (ios, mac/windows, and android) The DOS file attribute R (read-only) is the one which might be considered to have an equivalent: this attribute set is roughly like the w attribute for all being missing but the permission to change this attribute is subject to ACLs. ACLs (like used by Windows) are even more flexible, but more complicated as well, and the commandline syntax is a PITA (in my humble opinion, of course) In Linux file systems, every entry is owned by exactly one user and exactly one group, and read/write/execution can be allowed for each of them, and for others.There is an equivalent to the Windows "directory" ( D) attribute (but it can't be changed anyway).There is no equivalent to the "executable" ( x) Linux attributes in the DOS/Windows file attributes.There is no equivalent to the Windows "archive" ( A) attribute, either.In Windows file systems, there are "hidden" ( H) and "system" ( S) attributes which don't have an equivalent in Linux there, files are hidden by prepending the name with a dot (.There (sadly) can't be an exact equivalent, since Linux und DOS/Windows use attributes for different purposes, and (as Chathuranga said before) the security model is different: ![]()
