More than one FTP interval

Post by prodata »

Apologies if this is an old question, but how difficult would it be for Cumulus to offer the option of more than one FTP upload interval? Actually I only want two different intervals to be set (for two different sets of files), but I guess in principle the request is about multiple intervals. (In fact it's even simpler than that for my present purpose: I want to upload one file at e.g. 1-minute intervals (but different from the real-time setting) and all others at another longer interval. Or have I overlooked a way in which this can already be done - other than doing it externally from Cumulus?

This would be similar to the Weatherlink profiles concept where each profile can be assigned a separate upload interval (from a list of preset values).

Edit: But it wouldn't need to be as comprehensive as WL, eg in the files dialogue there could be an extra parameter/column which would be the required upload interval for each file. But maybe the architecture of Cumulus doesn't make this an easy change to implement?

I'm pretty sure there are one or more enhancement requests for this already. And yes, one day I will get around to doing it.
