omarchy-proton-drive-sync

Hourly sync for your local Proton Drive folder on Omarchy, with a bar widget to force a sync on click.

• Hourly sync — a systemd user timer mirrors ~/Proton Drive/root up to Proton Drive /my-files.
• Bar widget — cloud icon showing sync state; left-click to sync now, right-click for a status notification.

Install

Requires Omarchy and the Proton Drive CLI (proton-drive-cli-bin), signed in (proton-drive auth login).

omarchy plugin add https://git.cyfrowynomada.com/CyfrowyNomada/omarchy-proton-drive-sync.git
~/.config/omarchy/plugins/com.cyfrowynomada.proton-drive-sync/install.sh

Then add the Proton Drive sync widget to your bar (omarchy bar move com.cyfrowynomada.proton-drive-sync --section right, or via the bar settings).

Standalone (without the bar widget): clone the repo and run ./install.sh.

What syncs

Uploading is a one-way mirror of ~/Proton Drive/root → Proton Drive /my-files:

• new files are uploaded,
• changed files become new revisions,
• unchanged files are skipped (content hash),
• local deletions/renames do not propagate — the cloud copy keeps everything (the safe direction).

Files added from other devices are not downloaded.

Usage

Action	Result
Bar icon left-click	Sync now
Bar icon right-click	Status notification
systemctl --user start proton-drive-sync	Sync now (terminal)

State: ~/.local/state/proton-drive-sync/state — syncing, ok <time>, or error <time>. Log: ~/.local/state/proton-drive-sync/sync.log. Timer: systemctl --user list-timers proton-drive-sync.timer.

Icon: cloud = synced, spinner = syncing, warning = last sync failed.
