overly.sh

A small script to save your SSD based on OverlayFS. Moves browser profile and browser cache to /tmp

Why?

Yes, there is a profile-sync-daemon, but it often breaks the profile and is unstable (how, if it's just a bash script?). This little script was created for that reason.

Install

git clone https://github.com/LexSerest/overly.sh
cd overly.sh
make install

Config

To change folders, use /usr/share/overly/config.conf.

Uses folders by default:
Profile: $HOME/.config/google-chrome.
Cache: $HOME/.cache/google-chrome.

Run

systemctl --user enable overly
systemctl --user start overly

# for automatic synchronization once per hour
systemctl --user enable overly-sync

Usage

Synchronization is performed automatically when the computer is turned off.

Get information on mounted folders and how much memory is used in /tmp: overly info

Synchronize folders: overly sync

Mount folders: overly mount

Umount folders: overly umount

Unistall

make unistall
