Starting and Stopping Sync

Required only once, initiating the sync process automatically connects you with the mesh network. Once connected, you immediately begin receiving updates from set sync subscriptions and sending updates to subscribing remote peers.

Read more about how data synchronization works in Syncing Data.

Starting Sync

To initiate the sync process:

Swift

try! ditto.startSync()

Ensure the sync process remains active throughout your app’s lifecycle by starting the sync process (startSync) in the top-most scope of your code.

Stopping Sync

To stop the sync process, call the stopSync function. Once called, you will be disconnect from any peers and all active sync subscriptions will be paused.

Swift

try! ditto.stopSync()
