Configure
---------
First you'll need to configure rclone. As the object storage systems
have quite complicated authentication these are kept in a config file
`.rclone.conf` in your home directory by default. (You can use the
-config option to choose a different config file.)
The easiest way to make the config is to run rclone with the config
option, Eg
rclone config
Here is an example of making an s3 configuration
```
No remotes found - make a new one
n) New remote
q) Quit config
n/q> n
name> remote
What type of source is it?
Choose a number from below
1) swift
2) s3
3) local
4) drive

Usage
-----
FIXME
Rclone syncs a directory tree from local to remote.
Its basic syntax is like this
Syntax: [options] subcommand <parameters> <parameters...>
Each subcommand looks like this. See below for how to specify the
source and destination paths.
rclone copy source://path dest://path
Copy the source to the destination. Doesn't transfer
unchanged files, testing first by modification time then by
MD5SUM. Doesn't delete files from the destination.
rclone sync source://path dest://path
Sync the source to the destination. Doesn't transfer
unchanged files, testing first by modification time then by
MD5SUM. Deletes any files that exist in source that don't
exist in destination. Since this can cause data loss, test
first with the -dry-run flag.
rclone ls [remote://path]
List all the objects in the the path.
rclone lsd [remote://path]
List all directoryes/objects/buckets in the the path.
rclone mkdir remote://path
Make the path if it doesn't already exist
rclone rmdir remote://path
Remove the path. Note that you can't remove a path with
objects in it, use purge for that.
rclone purge remote://path
Remove the path and all of its contents.
rclone check source://path dest://path
Checks the files in the source and destination match. It
compares sizes and MD5SUMs and prints a report of files which
don't match. It doesn't alter the source or destination.
General options:
-config Location of the config file
-transfers=4: Number of file transfers to run in parallel.
-checkers=8: Number of MD5SUM checkers to run in parallel.
-dry-run=false: Do a trial run with no permanent changes
-modify-window=1ns: Max time difference to be considered the same - this is automatically set usually
-quiet=false: Print as little stuff as possible
-stats=1m0s: Interval to print stats
-verbose=false: Print lots more stuff
Developer options:
-cpuprofile="": Write cpu profile to file
Local Filesystem
----------------
Paths are specified as normal filesystem paths, so
rclone sync /home/source /tmp/destination
Will sync source to destination
Swift / Rackspace cloudfiles / Memset Memstore
----------------------------------------------
Paths are specified as remote://container or remote:// for the lsd
command.
So to copy a local directory to a swift container called backup
rclone sync /home/source swift://backup
The modified time is stored as metadata on the object as
'X-Object-Meta-Mtime' as floating point since the epoch.
This is a defacto standard (used in the official python-swiftclient
amongst others) for storing the modification time (as read using
os.Stat) for an object.
Amazon S3
---------
Paths are specified as remote://bucket
So to copy a local directory to a s3 container called backup
rclone sync /home/source s3://backup
The modified time is stored as metadata on the object as
"X-Amz-Meta-Mtime" as floating point since the epoch.
Google drive
------------
Paths are specified as drive://path Drive paths may be as deep as required.
FIXME describe how to set up initially
So to copy a local directory to a drive directory called backup
rclone sync /home/source s3://backup
