I tried this guide [here] (Sync Server - Anki Manual). Under Tools > Preferences > Syncing I have entered the IP of my sync server. How can I see if the syncronisation is working?
Do I have to make any configurations in Docker for it to work? I have created a user.
Yes that would be nice. I was able to start the server and a client. But I can’t see, that the client has a connection to the anki server. Do you know, how I can check this? Has your soliution a multiuser support? And if yes, how can I add the users to system and activate those in the clients?
if you have set the custom sync server url to your local instance, then it should 100% be connected. if you really want to make sure, then you could use network monitors to check this (OS-dependent, but maybe try wireshark).
you can indeed add multiple users, there should be a guide somewhere.
i think its just better if i work on a docker image for the sync server with a couple helper scripts, maybe add actual verbosity to the logs too… i have to do some more research
If I type in the ip of the local anki server, I can’t see any log entries from docker run command. Anki also dont ask for credentials. Im questioned. What is it like for you?
In the /data directory I see only a folder with the username as name. In this folder I see 3 db files. I mean in the terminal promt output I see only one entry, that the anki server is listening on port 8080. But I think, the server doesnt run corrently. Or the configuration for the client is wrong
Sorry, I think I will only have time to have a closer look at this some time in late August/early September. I will let you know.
But as I said, as long as you can see your user in the data folder and sync’ing works then it should be fine.
