syncthing
Run conditions prohibit running with no connection
When I am no on wifi and have mobile data disabled, the app will never run regardless of the set run conditions. My use case to run syncthing even though there will be no connection is scanning: It can take a long time if there is significant changed data, so I'd like that to happen even in between wifi connectivity.
There's two options that would work for me: Invert the run conditions, i.e. checkboxes meaning do not run on... Or add another option like "Always run" which when activated does just that and all other options are grayed out.
Hi @imsodin Can you work around the problem by "ticking run in flight mode"? This was intended to cover the no connection case.
@Catfriend1 Indeed, that works. In my opinion is definitely not intuitive (I looked at it but didn't even try it, as I was never in flight mode).
Ok I'd suggest renaming that option by changing the language strings to make more clear that it covers flight mode and no network connected case.
I second this request. I'm operating a wifi hotspot which is not connected to the internet for good reason and would still like to use Syncthing to synchronize machines locally within this network (with run condition "run on WiFi"). If it wasn't for @imsodin, I would still be wondering what's going on and would have reported the issue myself.
[UPDATE]: Turns out the "flight mode" setting does not do the trick in my case (Syncthing still thinks it's connected through mobil networks and hence does not run), so this seems to be a separate issue. Should I open up a new Github issue for this?
