Configuring onedrive options

Currently there are 5 options configurable options for onedrive:

  • client_id & client_secret: application identifiers necessary during the authentication
    
  • sync_dir: directory where the files will be synced
    
  • skip_file: any files that match this pattern will be skipped during sync
    
  • skip_dir: any directories that match this pattern will be skipped during sync
    

Edit the config file located at ~/.config/onedrive/config to change them. After changing the filters (skip_file or skip_dir in your configs) you must execute onedrive --resync.

Below shows what a the default config file would look like (client_id & client_secret excluded):

sync_dir = "~/OneDrive"
skip_file = ".*|~*"
skip_dir = ".*"

By default, onedrive skips dot-files, dot-folders, and files starting with a tilde (~).
