# rsync
> Transfer files either to or from a remote host (not between two remote hosts).
> Can transfer single files, or multiple files matching a pattern.
- Transfer file from local to remote host:
2015-12-29 05:03:08 +00:00
`rsync {{path/to/file}} {{remote_host_name}}:{{remote_host_location}}`
- Transfer file from remote host to local:
2014-01-28 12:00:11 +00:00
`rsync {{remote_host_name}}:{{remote_file_location}} {{local_file_location}}`
- Transfer file in archive (to preserve attributes) and compressed (zipped) mode with verbose and human-readable progress:
`rsync -azvhP {{path/to/file}} {{remote_host_name}}:{{remote_host_location}}`
- Transfer a directory and all its children from a remote to local:
`rsync -r {{remote_host_name}}:{{remote_directory_location}} {{local_directory_location}}`
2015-02-28 18:09:18 +00:00
- Transfer directory contents (but not the directory itself) from a remote to local:
`rsync -r {{remote_host_name}}:{{remote_folder_location}}/ {{local_folder_location}}`
- Transfer only updated files from remote host:
2015-12-29 16:40:29 +00:00
`rsync -ru {{remote_host_name}}:{{remote_directory_location}} {{local_directory_location}}`
2015-12-29 16:40:29 +00:00
- Transfer file over SSH and delete local files that do not exist on remote host:
2015-02-28 18:09:18 +00:00
`rsync -e ssh --delete {{remote_host_name}}:{{remote_file}} {{local_file}}`
2017-12-05 18:37:48 +00:00

`rsync -e ssh --info=progress2 {{remote_host_name}}:{{remote_file}} {{local_file}}`
