# Syncthing Mesh Setup
|
||||
|
||||
Shared file synchronization across all Timmy VPS nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Syncthing provides peer-to-peer, encrypted file synchronization between all wizard VPS nodes. No central server required.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
┌─────────────────┐ P2P Sync ┌─────────────────┐
|
||||
│ Allegro VPS │ ◄──────────────► │ Ezra VPS │
|
||||
│ 143.198.27.163 │ │ 167.99.126.228 │
|
||||
│ ~/shared/ │ │ ~/shared/ │
|
||||
└─────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
### On Each VPS Node
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Run the setup script
|
||||
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Timmy_Foundation/timmy-home/main/scripts/setup-syncthing.sh | bash
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or manually:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Download and run setup script
|
||||
wget -O /tmp/setup-syncthing.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Timmy_Foundation/timmy-home/main/scripts/setup-syncthing.sh
|
||||
chmod +x /tmp/setup-syncthing.sh
|
||||
/tmp/setup-syncthing.sh <node-name>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Node Status
|
||||
|
||||
| Node | IP | Device ID | Status |
|
||||
|------|-----|-----------|--------|
|
||||
| Allegro | 143.198.27.163 | MK6G5KV-VLTY7KS-FJ6ZN63-RV5ZIRG-7C2GSRS-OSJUDWA-IC6A7UP-NIGMQAE | ✅ Running |
|
||||
| Ezra | 167.99.126.228 | TBD | ⏳ Awaiting setup |
|
||||
| Future Timmy | TBD | TBD | ⏳ Future |
|
||||
|
||||
## Peering Nodes
|
||||
|
||||
After setup on each node:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Get device ID from each node:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
syncthing --device-id
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. On Allegro VPS, add Ezra's device:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
syncthing cli config devices add --device-id=<EZRA_DEVICE_ID> --name=ezra
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. On Ezra VPS, add Allegro's device:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
syncthing cli config devices add --device-id=MK6G5KV-VLTY7KS-FJ6ZN63-RV5ZIRG-7C2GSRS-OSJUDWA-IC6A7UP-NIGMQAE --name=allegro
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. Share the `shared` folder with the peer device via web UI or CLI.
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Sync
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# On Allegro
|
||||
echo "Test from Allegro" > ~/shared/test-allegro.txt
|
||||
|
||||
# On Ezra (after 60 seconds)
|
||||
cat ~/shared/test-allegro.txt # Should show "Test from Allegro"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Web UI Access
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# SSH tunnel to access web UI locally
|
||||
ssh -L 8384:localhost:8384 root@<vps-ip>
|
||||
# Then open http://localhost:8384 in browser
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
| Issue | Solution |
|
||||
|-------|----------|
|
||||
| Nodes not connecting | Check firewall allows port 22000/tcp |
|
||||
| Web UI not accessible | Verify bound to 127.0.0.1:8384 |
|
||||
| Files not syncing | Check folder paths match on both nodes |
|
||||
| Service not starting | Check `systemctl status syncthing@root` |
|
||||
|
||||
## Security
|
||||
|
||||
- Web UI bound to localhost only (no external exposure)
|
||||
- All sync traffic is encrypted
|
||||
- Device IDs required for peering (no unauthorized access)
|
||||
- No central server - direct peer-to-peer only
