A Syncthing TUI client with nearly-complete feature parity with the Syncthing web GUI.

Note that this app was entirely vibe-engineered from CHAT.txt

Install

go install github.com/evidlo/syncthingtui/cmd/syncthingtui@latest
syncthingtui

Usage

Usage of syncthingtui:
  -address string
    	syncthing GUI address (default: from config.xml)
  -api-key string
    	API key (default: from config.xml)
  -fake
    	use fake data instead of a live syncthing
  -list
    	list static screen names
  -screen string
    	render a named screen statically and exit
  -size string
    	WxH for -screen (default "80x60")

Architecture

  • client/ — minimal syncthing REST client + local config.xml discovery
  • app/ — the TUI
    • app.go — root router (main view ⇄ subview), static screen presets
    • main_view.go — tabs: Folders, This Device, Remote Devices, Alerts, Actions
    • subviews.go — Edit Folder / Edit Device / Settings forms (save → REST)
    • form.go — browse-then-edit form widget (jk browse, enter edit)
    • live.go — polls syncthing, feeds data into the views
  • cmd/syncthingtui — entry point; cmd/mockup — frozen design mockups

Running Tests

# run all tests: UI dispatch + layout width tests, plus full REST integration
# against a temporary syncthing instance in /tmp
go test ./...
# pieces, individually:
./scripts/test_live.sh      # the REST integration suite on its own
go run ./scripts/rocheck    # read-only check against your real instance
go run ./cmd/syncthingtui -list                            # list TUI views
go run ./cmd/syncthingtui -screen main-folders -size 80x30 # render a view
