# GUI (Experimental)
|
|
|
|
Rclone can serve a web based GUI (graphical user interface). This is
|
|
somewhat experimental at the moment so things may be subject to
|
|
change.
|
|
|
|
Run this command in a terminal and rclone will download and then
|
|
display the GUI in a web browser.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rclone rcd --rc-web-gui
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will produce logs like this and rclone needs to continue to run to serve the GUI:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|

```
|
|
|
|
This assumes you are running rclone locally on your machine. It is
|
|
possible to separate the rclone and the GUI - see below for details.
|
|
|
|
If you wish to check for updates then you can add `--rc-web-gui-update`
|
|
to the command line.
|
|
|
|
If you find your GUI broken, you may force it to update by add `--rc-web-gui-force-update`.
|
|
|
|
By default, rclone will open your browser. Add `--rc-web-gui-no-open-browser`
|
|
to disable this feature.
|
|
|
|
## Using the GUI
|
|
|
|
Once the GUI opens, you will be looking at the dashboard which has an overall overview.
|
|
|
|
On the left hand side you will see a series of view buttons you can click on:
|
|
|
|
- Dashboard - main overview
|
|
- Configs - examine and create new configurations
|
|
- Explorer - view, download and upload files to the cloud storage systems
|
|
- Backend - view or alter the backend config
|
|
- Log out
|
|
|
|
(More docs and walkthrough video to come!)
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
When you run the `rclone rcd --rc-web-gui` this is what happens
|
|
|
|
- Rclone starts but only runs the remote control API ("rc").
|
|
- The API is bound to localhost with an auto generated username and password.
|
|
- If the API bundle is missing then rclone will download it.
|
|
- rclone will start serving the files from the API bundle over the same port as the API
|
|
- rclone will open the browser with a `login_token` so it can log straight in.
|
|
|
|
## Advanced use
|
|
|
|
The `rclone rcd` may use any of the [flags documented on the rc page](https://rclone.org/rc/#supported-parameters).
|
|
|
|
The flag `--rc-web-gui` is shorthand for
|
|
|
|
- Download the web GUI if necessary
|
|
- Check we are using some authentication
|
|
- `--rc-user gui`
|
|
- `--rc-pass <random password>`
|
|
- `--rc-serve`
|
|
|
|
These flags can be overidden as desired.
|
|
|
|
See also the [rclone rcd documentation](https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_rcd/).
|
|
|
|
### Example: Running a public GUI
|
|
|
|
For example the GUI could be served on a public port over SSL using an htpasswd file using the following flags:
|
|
|
|
- `--rc-web-gui`
|
|
- `--rc-addr :443`
|
|
- `--rc-htpasswd /path/to/htpasswd`
|
|
- `--rc-cert /path/to/ssl.crt`
|
|
- `--rc-key /path/to/ssl.key`
|
|
|
|
### Example: Running a GUI behind a proxy
|
|
|
|
If you want to run the GUI behind a proxy at `/rclone` you could use these flags:
|
|
|
|
- `--rc-web-gui`
|
|
- `--rc-baseurl rclone`
|
|
- `--rc-htpasswd /path/to/htpasswd`
|
|
|
|
Or instead of htpassword if you just want a single user and password:
|
|
|
|
- `--rc-user me`
|
|
- `--rc-pass mypassword`
|
|
|
|
## Project
|
|
|
