Syncthing Setup

I am currently using syncthing for my music to be synced across devices.

Installation

Install the Syncthing package from upstream repositories.

Reverse proxy setup [Ref]

Example syncthing reverse proxy setup.

sync.joshuayun.com {
        handle_path /* {
                reverse_proxy http://localhost:8384 {
                        header_up Host {upstream_hostport}
                }
        }
}

Optional: Add a htpasswd to block unauthorized access to the syncthing.

Syncthing system service [Ref]

Enable the syncthing user service.

systemctl enable syncthing@myuser.service
systemctl start syncthing@myuser.service

Syncthing configuration

Done all through the gui. It is recommended to setup a user login, especially if you are making a syncthing that is exposed to the open internet.
