Syncthing Bar for OS-X

I just released a new version fixing all known bugs (check changelog).

Furthermore i updated the icon (THX TO Arminius => i mentioned you in the Contributors file - hope that is ok).

I generated a PDF from the AI file and i am now using that as the logo. That should look a lot smoother (got a new Retina Mac this week :wink: ).

I checked the Dark menu bar and it looks okish there as well.

as to the obisdian bar: 10.10s dark theme seems to have replaced the obsidian bar so i didn’t address that problem :open_mouth: (lazy, lazy :O)

Thanks a lot, now everything is working. I thought only, that it should update itselfe? But it had not.

And when you have time, it would be cool when it shows me, if it has a connection (green) or not (red) and if it is syncing (turning circle) :wink: Them Iwould be absolutly happy :stuck_out_tongue: And maby in the dropdown it could show up/down rate.

it will update the bundled syncthing but not itself :slight_smile:

Could you maybe add the option to disable the automatic starting of the program? Currently it’s always starting when a user logs in. I had to remove the appropiate .plist file from /Library/LaunchAgents to disable this.

Moreover, could you use the Syncthing icon as program icon (if there are no copyright issues)? The official icon is available as a vector file, so it should be no problem to get the right sizes.

Apart from these small issues, the program works perfectly so far :).

A new release has been published. Finally a proper appicon :smiley:. Thnx to @shish on github

Thanks for your work! Just one thing, I’ve recognised, that the “show Log” function does not work anymore. It opens nothing.

I can confirm this. It would be nice if this could be fixed.

It seems that the packager forgot to add the logwindow xib file :frowning: I have no idea why that happened. However i just prepared a new release. The bar won’t upgrade syncthing anymore (syncthing has its own mechanism to upgrade) so users can disable autoupgrades in syncthing.

Thank you very much!

Nice work! I don’t know any cocoa / swift either, but I’ll check out your work and see if there is anything I can do to help :smiley: I’m a C++ developer btw if that helps at all.

Works on: MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2013) OS X Yosemite

Does Syncthing Bar work on Mavericks? The install pkg worked fine but I can’t seem to get the application to run beyond showing the icon on the dock and having a single “syncthing-bar” menu item with no contents.

I am using 10.9.5.

no. syncthing-bar requires yosemite. It uses fancy storyboards :S

Any news about support for version 0.11.0 of SyncThing? :smile:

I just tried it with version 0.11.0 of SyncThing: Syncthing Bar stops after a second without a warning so it seems that Syncthing Bar is affected by the API change. Could you please update it when you have the time?

Yes please give us an update! :slight_smile:

Fixed :smile:

This is really nice. Only thing I’ve run into is that when Syncthing restarts after an automatic update, it can pop up an OS X network permissions dialog without warning.

New release has been published :smiley:

Got a new icon which should fix transparency issues :smiley:

also bumped bundled syncthing to 0.11.6

A new release is there :open_mouth:

We now have a settings dialog, containing icon settings and the possibility to pause syncthing when certain applications are running.

You can now stop and start syncthing from within the menu.
