Aleksandar Mastilovic requested to merge feature/Initial-Version into main Sep 17, 2024

In this version, the following functionality is supported:

Configuration of supported repositories through storagesync.toml
Configuration of target HDFS (or other!) filesystems through artifacts.yaml
A REST API endpoint that accepts repository label as path parameter and performs the synchronization if the repository is configured

What's missing:

Unit tests
Delegating synchronization tasks to an external worker and support for a ticketing system so that the caller can initiate synchronization and then keep checking for results in a loop
