Idea: Show sync completion via text file in folder root

Hi,

This just came to my mind when users were asking “is everything in sync at the moment?”. I don’t want the users to fiddle with the rest API or web UI access. This way, they could see a file in

C:/synced_folder/.syncthing_completion

With a content of

“89”

Meaning the folder sync is 89% complete.

It’s not that I need to have that feature as I have my scripts already in place but it would be nice to have.

Plus, other scripts just could look at the file, track when it changes from 100 to something else and back to detect sync completion much more easily.

Of course the file needs to be default-ignored internally just like .stignore

Kind regards, Catfriend1

If you have magic scripts, you can create that file by just curling from the rest API.
