Papad Monitor

Scripts to manage export import from papad database to handover to syncthing folders.

main.py is the watcher for changes in the configured (syncthing folders) and if any changes will import_json() content into db
dump.py exports the contents of db and saves into json file in the configured path (syncthing folders), this should be run in a crontab to run in intervals
The dumped JSON file naming convention is macid.json
load.py is where import_json() is defined, and manages the merging of content, ex. tags.

Device A and Device B are running papad web application (api server and frontend client)
User X and Y access papad through Device A via the url https://deviceA.local
User Z access papad through Device B via the url https://deviceB.local
User X adds a tag "gulab jamoon recipe" to jamoon.mp3 at https://deviceA.local
User Y adds a image jamoon.png to jamoon.mp3 at https://deviceA.local
User Z should be able to see jamoon.mp3 with the tags and images User X and Y at https://deviceB.local

The dry run user stories, and other test cases are documented in the below document with diagrams. https://hackmd.io/@sagesalus/ByUUI1BT8
