You should copy the default config file into your home directory before making changes:

mkdir -p ~/.config/onedrive
cp ./config ~/.config/onedrive/config

Available options:

• sync_dir: directory where the files will be synced
• skip_file: any files or directories that match this pattern will be skipped during sync

Pattern are case insensitive. * and ? wildcards characters are supported. Use | to separate multiple patterns.

Selective sync

Selective sync allows you to sync only specific files and directories. To enable selective sync create a file named sync_list in ~/.config/onedrive. Each line represents a path to a file or directory relative from your sync_dir.

$ cat ~/.config/onedrive/sync_list
Backup
Documents/report.odt
Work/ProjectX
notes.txt

The first time you run the program you will be asked to sign in. The procedure requires a web browser.

Service

If you want to sync your files automatically, enable and start the systemd service:

systemctl --user enable onedrive
systemctl --user start onedrive

To see the logs run:

journalctl --user-unit onedrive -f
