github-folder-sync

Description

This library can be used to sync a folder from your device to GitHub. This is a fun project and I do not recommend to push large files.

Usage example

const { homedir } = require('os')
const { join } = require('path')
const { GitHubFolderSync } = require('github-folder-sync')
const gitHubFolderSync = new GitHubFolderSync(
  join(homedir(), 'Desktop', 'my-folder'),
  60_000 * 5, // Sync in every 5 minutes.
  'some-repo',
  'ghp_c23sd2lMESl5nZsDs4Szzsj5Na2SiS1Yu62k',
  'datomarjanidze',
  'main',
)

gitHubFolderSync.start()
