# rclone config update
|
|
|
|
Update options in an existing remote.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
Update an existing remote's options. The options should be passed in
|
|
pairs of `key` `value` or as `key=value`.
|
|
|
|
For example, to update the env_auth field of a remote of name myremote
|
|
you would do:
|
|
|
|
rclone config update myremote env_auth true
|
|
rclone config update myremote env_auth=true
|
|
|
|
If the remote uses OAuth the token will be updated, if you don't
|
|
require this add an extra parameter thus:
|
|
|
|
rclone config update myremote env_auth=true config_refresh_token=false
|
|
|
|
Note that if the config process would normally ask a question the
|
|
default is taken (unless `--non-interactive` is used). Each time
|
|
that happens rclone will print or DEBUG a message saying how to
|
|
affect the value taken.
|
|
|
|
If any of the parameters passed is a password field, then rclone will
|
|
automatically obscure them if they aren't already obscured before
|
|
putting them in the config file.
|
|
|
|
**NB** If the password parameter is 22 characters or longer and
|
|
consists only of base64 characters then rclone can get confused about
|
|
whether the password is already obscured or not and put unobscured
|
|
passwords into the config file. If you want to be 100% certain that
|
|
the passwords get obscured then use the `--obscure` flag, or if you
|
|
are 100% certain you are already passing obscured passwords then use
|
|
`--no-obscure`. You can also set obscured passwords using the
|
|
`rclone config password` command.
|
|
|
|
The flag `--non-interactive` is for use by applications that wish to
|
|
configure rclone themselves, rather than using rclone's text based
|
|
configuration questions. If this flag is set, and rclone needs to ask
|
|
the user a question, a JSON blob will be returned with the question in
|
|
it.
|
|
|
|
This will look something like (some irrelevant detail removed):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"State": "*oauth-islocal,teamdrive,,",
|
|
"Option": {
|
|
"Name": "config_is_local",
|
|
"Help": "Use web browser to automatically authenticate rclone with remote?\n * Say Y if the machine running rclone has a web browser you can use\n * Say N if running rclone on a (remote) machine without web browser access\nIf not sure try Y. If Y failed, try N.\n",
|
|
"Default": true,
|
|
"Examples": [
|
|
{
|
|
"Value": "true",
|
|
"Help": "Yes"
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
"Value": "false",
|
|
"Help": "No"
|
|
}
|
|
],
|
|
"Required": false,
|
|
"IsPassword": false,
|
|
"Type": "bool",
|
|
"Exclusive": true,
|
|
},
|
|
"Error": "",
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The format of `Option` is the same as returned by `rclone config
|
|
providers`. The question should be asked to the user and returned to
|
|
rclone as the `--result` option along with the `--state` parameter.
|
|
|
|
The keys of `Option` are used as follows:
|
|
|
|
- `Name` - name of variable - show to user
|
|
- `Help` - help text. Hard wrapped at 80 chars. Any URLs should be clicky.
|
|
- `Default` - default value - return this if the user just wants the default.
|
|
- `Examples` - the user should be able to choose one of these
|
|
- `Required` - the value should be non-empty
|
|
- `IsPassword` - the value is a password and should be edited as such
|
|
- `Type` - type of value, eg `bool`, `string`, `int` and others
|
|
- `Exclusive` - if set no free-form entry allowed only the `Examples`
|
|
- Irrelevant keys `Provider`, `ShortOpt`, `Hide`, `NoPrefix`, `Advanced`
|
|
|
|
If `Error` is set then it should be shown to the user at the same
|
|
time as the question.
|
|
|
|
rclone config update name --continue --state "*oauth-islocal,teamdrive,," --result "true"
|
|
|
|
Note that when using `--continue` all passwords should be passed in
|
|
the clear (not obscured). Any default config values should be passed
|
|
in with each invocation of `--continue`.
|
|
|
|
At the end of the non interactive process, rclone will return a result
|
|
with `State` as empty string.
|
|
|
|
If `--all` is passed then rclone will ask all the config questions,
|
|
not just the post config questions. Any parameters are used as
|
|
defaults for questions as usual.
|
|
|
|
Note that `bin/config.py` in the rclone source implements this protocol
|
|
as a readable demonstration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rclone config update name [key value]+ [flags]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--all Ask the full set of config questions

|
|
--non-interactive Don't interact with user and return questions

|
|
```
