Description

Could this eventually be a python module, rather than being geared more towards a command line tool? Specific features that would be really useful would be non-blocking behaviors (such as an upload/download manager that could be monitored by other code). Imagine this being part of a python GUI with a progress-bar or similar. What about progress based on bytes uploaded/downloaded versus file count. Finally, what about a continuous scan of an upload path where files are being progressively added, and then uploaded by the manager? Nice job on the code!

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how to refactor the CLI code into a reusable Python module with async support for non blocking upload/download, progress callbacks, and directory monitoring using libraries like asyncio or watchdog.
