Synronice between Servers / Sync tool Libary #47

Description

@Creymore

The idea is to have the ability to synchronize between two servers.

I had some thoughts of how it could work from a User perspective:
Step 0:
Have Account A on Server S1
Have Account B on Server S2
Be logged in on both

Step 1:
Open the synchronize Accounts feature on both accounts.

Step 2:
Copy the "synchronization link" from Account A on S1

Step 3:
Past the "synchronization link" into the Synchronize with filed of Account B on S2

Step 4.0:
Confirm the connection attamt from Account B Server S2 to Account A Server S1 on Account A Server S1
(for extra safety)

Step 4.1:
Now the Login prompt opens for Account A through Server S2. Log in

Step 5:
Choose between synchronization options:

  • Couple (A => B and B => A)
  • One way (A => B or B =>)
  • One time

Step 6: Confirm and be happy, you can Change it at any time from both accounts

How would this be useful ?
Migration of a Makerspace Hosted or FPA Server to a Personal or the other way around.
Synchronization of Tool library like the nibbler bot, although this should work easier.

Additional needed features:
Organization Owners can disable this for any Data Associated with their Organization.
A tool Libary can be shared without having two accounts, maybe a public sharing link. Or a "synchronization link" on the homepage of the lens server.

Additional information:
"synchronization link" = A string that tells the Server where to Synchronize to, maybe Server IP or website name and user name.
