grunt-webdav-sync

> Synchronizes a local folder to a remote webdav folder

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

``shell
npm install grunt-webdav-sync --save-dev
`

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

`js
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-webdav-sync');
`

The "webdav_sync" task

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named webdav_sync to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

`js
grunt.initConfig({
webdav_sync: {
options: {
// Task-specific options go here.
},
your_target: {
// Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
},
},
})
`

#### options.local_path
Type: String
Default value: none

A local path pattern to load files from. the local_path is relative from the Gruntfile.js root. The files from local_path will be copied from the ** directory so if upload contains for example test.json and the remote_path is http://user:password@localhost:9001/path/to it will upload to http://user:password@localhost:9001/path/to/test.json.

#### options.remote_path
Type: String
Default value: none

The server to upload the file to. This accepts all default URL's so you can add username, password or a port.

#### options.sendImmediately
Type: Boolean
Default value: false

sendImmediately defaults to false, which means request will retry with a proper authentication header after receiving a 401 response from the server (which must contain a WWW-Authenticate header indicating the required authentication method). When setting it to true a basic authentication header is sent.

#### options.strictSSL
Type: Boolean
Default value: false

If true, requires SSL certificates be valid. Note: to use your own certificate authority, you need to specify an agent that was created with that CA as an option.

#### Default Options
In this example, the default options are used to copy files from a directory to a remote webdav server.

`js
grunt.initConfig({
webdav_sync: {
default: {
options: {
local_path: 'test/assets/upload/**',
remote_path: 'http://user:password@localhost:9001/path/to'
sendImmediately: true,
strictSSL: false
}
}
},
})
