Synology File Station

Core Goal

• Run major Synology File Station file operations with one CLI script.
• Read connection credentials from env instead of hardcoding secrets.
• Return JSON output suitable for automation pipelines.

Workflow

1. Prepare env variables (see references/env.md and assets/config.example.env).
2. Validate config:

python3 scripts/synology_file_station.py check-config

3. Optional connection probe:

python3 scripts/synology_file_station.py check-config --probe

4. Run the required file operation command (see references/commands.md).

Major Operations

• Read/browse: info, list-shares, list, get-info
• Search: search-start, search-list, search-stop, search-clean
• Directory/file mutation: mkdir, rename, copy, move, delete
• Transfer: upload, download
• Archive workflows: extract (compress is temporarily unavailable)
• Background task control: background-list, task-status, task-stop

Environment Contract

Required env:

• SYNOLOGY_BASE_URL
• SYNOLOGY_USERNAME
• SYNOLOGY_PASSWORD

Optional env:

• SYNOLOGY_VERIFY_SSL
• SYNOLOGY_TIMEOUT
• SYNOLOGY_SESSION
• SYNOLOGY_READONLY (default false; set true to block mutation commands)
• SYNOLOGY_MUTATION_ALLOW_PATHS (optional mutation path allowlist)

Output Contract

• Success: JSON object with type=status and operation-specific fields.
• Failure: JSON object with type=error and structured error metadata.
• Exit code:
  • 0: success
  • 1: runtime/API error
  • 2: invalid env configuration
