The aim of this package is to synchronize a (probably) remote folder and a local folder, in such a way you can perform grid computing over a cluster of computers and automatically synchronize their copy of data. It is suitable for slow network connections, so the idea is to copy the data from the network into local disks. By using a temporary folder you can delete it when no needed or just restart the machine. But if you need more than one execution with the same data, this package ensures it is in sync with the remote resource.
Currently this package has been implemented by means of os.system()
calls to rsync command.
