grunt-webdav-sync's Issues

Support digest authentication

Hi,

first of all thanks for the plugin. I'm attempting to use a WebDAV server using the digest authentication method. The current version of the grunt-webdav-sync task doesn't seem to support this method, because I got the following error message when attempting the creation of a directory:

Resource requires authorization or authorization was denied. For url: http://abc:[email protected]:8887/test

File sync'ing didn't work even though there doesn't seem to be any useful message coming back from the server to indicate that there was a problem because the plugin returns:

Searching for files in: src/**
>> Found 1 files, Start uploading files to http://abc:abc@localhost:8887/

Done, without errors.
Completed in 0.786s at Sun Nov 03 2013 18:27:19 GMT+0100 (CET) - Waiting...
OK

When changing my WebDAV server's authentication method to basic, suddenly everything started working as expected.

I'm not an expert on how to add support for the digest authentication method, but it would be great if it existed. :-)

Thanks,
Jakob.

Sync issues with sub folders

Hi. Trying Grunt for the first time and need to sync folders on my local and a webdav server. single file uploads are working perfectly. When I try to sync folders and sub folders, according to webdav_sync.js (lines 178 to 197), deletes any subfolders if exists and creates a new one. I believe synchronization needs to check for folders/subfolders in the entire tree and then check for newer files. I have a big tree both on my local and the webdav server and I need to upload/overwrite only files with newer version. Is it possible to sync the folders like this ? Am I missing any configuration ?
(Hope this is the correct forum to ask this question. Let me know if otherwise)

Thanks,
Augustine

Support for https ?- getting Fatal error: Cannot read property 'statusCode' of undefined

This is more of a question.
Does this task support https WebDav connections by chance ? (443)

The example on this repo uses http (80)

Thanks :)

The binary formats are hardcoded

Pull request #6 fixed issues with binary encoded files, but it hardcoded binary files this should be detected.

sendImmediately=false

Hi,

Why is the sendImmediately set to false in the auth settings ?

I can't think of a reason to wait to send the auth header.
Changing it to true solved my webdav uploading issues.

Create directories as needed

It would be nice if the plugin would not complain if a remote directory does not exist, but instead created needed directories like mkdirp does. If this is not possible due to access-right problems, an exception would be fine.

Grunt task fails when trying to target files only, not subfolders

Hi there,

I have a folder which I'm trying to upload via grunt-webdav-sync. The folder contains a mixture of files and subfolders. I'm trying to upload just the files, not the subfolders. I have so far tried the following:

local_path: 'dist/*', and local_path: 'dist/*.*',

A message appears saying 'Found 5 files', but the Grunt task then fails before the uploading begins (despite the 'Start uploading files to' message appearing).

Specifying the default local_path: 'dist/**', (all files and subfolders) works absolutely fine.

Thanks

Latest version not in npm repository

Like the comment says, the latest code (including the fix for windows paths) is not pulled from the npm repository. Probably just need to bump the version number in package.json

option to exclude certain file extensions/folders

It would be really helpful if there were an option to exclude certain file types and certain folders from being synced to the webdav.

Authentication Error

Thanks for the awesome module! I'm excited to get it working cause it's going to save a lot of work for my team and I with this particular CMS we are using. Unfortunately I'm getting an authorization error when using the module.

I can log in with the same webdav url just fine via Finder.

I'm using https://username:[email protected]/path

Error: Resource requires authorization or authorization was denied For url: ... ...

Any ideas on what could be causing this?

Erroring on sync

Hey,
So we're getting a consistent error when we run our grunt sync task

Fatal error: Cannot read property 'statusCode' of undefined

Any ideas?

Best,
Steven

Make better use of the file api for grunt plugins

Most plugins use the same file api, grunt-webdav-sync should use it too: http://gruntjs.com/api/grunt.file

Add support for storing usernames and passwords in a separate 'key' file

Feature request: It would be great if the plugin could support the storing of usernames and passwords in a separate 'key' file that could then be omitted from source control. Like grunt-sftp-deploy does.

Is this something that's been considered?
