Install Copy Cloud Sync in Command Line on Arch Linux
Copy Cloud service currently offers 15 GB out of the fox for free. This alone is better than most services. For example if you setup Dropbox on Arch Linux you will only be getting 2 GB to start. With Copy it’s also possible to gain an extra 5 GB per referral up to 25 GB of additional storage compared to 16 GB maximum with Dropbox. Before you install Copy, sign up for a copy account with a referral link which will get you 5 GB extra storage.
Install Copy Cloud Service
Install Packer on Arch Linux, install Yaourt or use another package wrapper.
Install the package with packer.
packer -S copy-agent
Configure Copy
Create a sync directory or use an existing directory.
sudo mkdir /mnt/storage/copy
Set ownership on the sync directory.
sudo chown -R dom:dom /mnt/storage/copy
Set permissions on the sync directory.
sudo chmod -R 770 /mnt/storage/copy
Start Copy Console
Run CopyConsole manually for the first time to save the parameters for the subsequent runs.
CopyConsole -u=xxxxxxxx@gmail.com -p=xxxxxxxx -r=/mnt/storage/copy
Provide the email of the copy.com account with -u parameter and password with -p parameter. Set Copy root sync directory with -r parameter. Issuing this command will begin syncing data from and to the Copy cloud service. This process can be aborted safely with Ctrl + C.
The configuration files are saved in ~/.copy. This command should be executed by every user that will use Copy.
Start the daemon with systemd.
systemctl --user start copy-console
Enable the daemon to start on boot with systemd.
systemctl --user enable copy-console
Copy Console daemon should now run in the background as the current user and synchronise data using the information specified previously. Systemd script should be enabled by every user that wants to use Copy. Unfortunately there is no internal way to limit bandwidth like it can be done in the Desktop application.
