You can also use the extension point’s API to add a toolbar button to the Finder window or a sidebar icon for the monitored folder.įinder Sync supports apps that synchronize the contents of a local folder with a remote data source. Your Finder Sync extension then sets badges, labels, and contextual menus for any items in the monitored folders. With a Finder Sync extension you register one or more folders for the system to monitor. Instead, it lets you modify the behavior of the Finder itself.
Unlike most extension points, Finder Sync does not add features to a host app. In OS X, the Finder Sync extension point lets you cleanly and safely modify the Finder’s user interface to express file synchronization status and control.
