Fast, unlimited & secure file-syncing. Free from the cloud. Sync never stores your files on servers, so they stay safe from data breaches and prying eyes. A more detailed and in depth FAQ and documentation about bittorrent sync can be found on: https://www.bittorrent.com/sync
The btsync cookbook installs bittorrent sync and provides a simple LWRP for adding shared folders that are to be synced between multiple servers. When using a hosted chef install you will be able to use the search feature to automatically find and add additional nodes to bittorrent sync without making any modifications.
Please note btsync on linux requires glibc 2.3 or greater.
TODO: Full attributes will be completed soon.
| Key | Type | Description | Default |

| ['btsync']['setup']['bin_dir'] | String | Where the binary will be installed to (should be in your path) | /usr/local/bin/ |
Just include btsync in your node's run_list:
{
"name":"my_node",
"run_list": [
"recipe[btsync::default]"
]
}Then add a path and options to your server role like so:
{

"chef_type": "role",
"json_class": "Chef::Role",
"description": "Example Role for BTSYNC",
