# rclone serve restic
|
|
|
|
Serve the remote for restic's REST API.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
rclone serve restic implements restic's REST backend API
|
|
over HTTP. This allows restic to use rclone as a data storage
|
|
mechanism for cloud providers that restic does not support directly.
|
|
|
|
[Restic](https://restic.net/) is a command line program for doing
|
|
backups.
|
|
|
|
The server will log errors. Use -v to see access logs.
|
|
|
|
--bwlimit will be respected for file transfers. Use --stats to
|
|
control the stats printing.
|
|
|
|
## Setting up rclone for use by restic ###
|
|
|
|
First [set up a remote for your chosen cloud provider](/docs/#configure).
|
|
|
|
Once you have set up the remote, check it is working with, for example
|
|
"rclone lsd remote:". You may have called the remote something other
|
|
than "remote:" - just substitute whatever you called it in the
|
|
following instructions.
|
|
|
|
Now start the rclone restic server
|
|
|
|
rclone serve restic -v remote:backup
|
|
|
|
Where you can replace "backup" in the above by whatever path in the
|
|
remote you wish to use.
|
|
|
|
By default this will serve on "localhost:8080" you can change this
|
|
with use of the "--addr" flag.
|
|
|
|
You might wish to start this server on boot.
|
|
|
|
Adding --cache-objects=false will cause rclone to stop caching objects
|
|
returned from the List call. Caching is normally desirable as it speeds
|
|
up downloading objects, saves transactions and uses very little memory.
|
|
|
|
## Setting up restic to use rclone ###
|
|
|
|
Now you can [follow the restic
|
|
instructions](http://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/030_preparing_a_new_repo.html#rest-server)
|
|
on setting up restic.
|
|
|
|
Note that you will need restic 0.8.2 or later to interoperate with
|
|
rclone.
|
|
|
|
For the example above you will want to use "http://localhost:8080/" as
|
|
the URL for the REST server.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
$ export RESTIC_REPOSITORY=rest:http://localhost:8080/
|
|
$ export RESTIC_PASSWORD=yourpassword
|
|
$ restic init
|
|
created restic backend 8b1a4b56ae at rest:http://localhost:8080/
|
|
|
|
Please note that knowledge of your password is required to access
|
|
the repository. Losing your password means that your data is
|
|
irrecoverably lost.
|
|
$ restic backup /path/to/files/to/backup
|
|
scan [/path/to/files/to/backup]
|
|
scanned 189 directories, 312 files in 0:00
|
|
[0:00] 100.00% 38.128 MiB / 38.128 MiB 501 / 501 items 0 errors ETA 0:00
|
|
duration: 0:00

### Multiple repositories ####
|
|
|
|
Note that you can use the endpoint to host multiple repositories. Do
|
|
this by adding a directory name or path after the URL. Note that
|
|
these **must** end with /. Eg
|
|
|
|
$ export RESTIC_REPOSITORY=rest:http://localhost:8080/user1repo/
|
|
# backup user1 stuff
|
|
$ export RESTIC_REPOSITORY=rest:http://localhost:8080/user2repo/
|
|
# backup user2 stuff
|
|
|
|
### Private repositories ####
|
|
|
|
The "--private-repos" flag can be used to limit users to repositories starting
|
|
with a path of `/<username>/`.
|
|
|
|
## Server options
|
|
|
|
Use --addr to specify which IP address and port the server should
|
|
listen on, e.g. --addr 1.2.3.4:8000 or --addr :8080 to listen to all
|
|
IPs. By default it only listens on localhost. You can use port
|
|
:0 to let the OS choose an available port.
|
|
|
|
If you set --addr to listen on a public or LAN accessible IP address
|
|
then using Authentication is advised - see the next section for info.
|
|
|
|
--server-read-timeout and --server-write-timeout can be used to
|
|
control the timeouts on the server. Note that this is the total time
|
|
for a transfer.
|
|
|
|
--max-header-bytes controls the maximum number of bytes the server will
|
|
accept in the HTTP header.
|
|
|
|
--baseurl controls the URL prefix that rclone serves from. By default
|
|
rclone will serve from the root. If you used --baseurl "/rclone" then
|
|
rclone would serve from a URL starting with "/rclone/". This is
|
|
useful if you wish to proxy rclone serve. Rclone automatically
|
|
inserts leading and trailing "/" on --baseurl, so --baseurl "rclone",
|
|
--baseurl "/rclone" and --baseurl "/rclone/" are all treated
|
|
identically.
|
|
|
|
--template allows a user to specify a custom markup template for http
|
|
and webdav serve functions. The server exports the following markup
|
|
to be used within the template to server pages:
|
|
|
|
| Parameter | Description |
|
|
| :---------- | :---------- |
|
|
| .Name | The full path of a file/directory. |
|
|
| .Title | Directory listing of .Name |
|
|
| .Sort | The current sort used. This is changeable via ?sort= parameter |
|
|
| | Sort Options: namedirfirst,name,size,time (default namedirfirst) |
|
|
| .Order | The current ordering used. This is changeable via ?order= parameter |
|
|
| | Order Options: asc,desc (default asc) |
|
|
| .Query | Currently unused. |
|
|
| .Breadcrumb | Allows for creating a relative navigation |
|
|
|-- .Link | The relative to the root link of the Text. |
|
|
|-- .Text | The Name of the directory. |
|
|
| .Entries | Information about a specific file/directory. |
|
|
|-- .URL | The 'url' of an entry. |
|
|
|-- .Leaf | Currently same as 'URL' but intended to be 'just' the name. |
|
|
|-- .IsDir | Boolean for if an entry is a directory or not. |
|
|
|-- .Size | Size in Bytes of the entry. |
|
|
|-- .ModTime | The UTC timestamp of an entry. |
|
|
|
|
### Authentication
|
|
|
|
By default this will serve files without needing a login.
|
|
|
|
You can either use an htpasswd file which can take lots of users, or
|
|
set a single username and password with the --user and --pass flags.
|
|
|
|
Use --htpasswd /path/to/htpasswd to provide an htpasswd file. This is
|
|
in standard apache format and supports MD5, SHA1 and BCrypt for basic
|
|
authentication. Bcrypt is recommended.
|
|
|
|
To create an htpasswd file:
|
|
|
|
touch htpasswd
|
|
htpasswd -B htpasswd user
|
|
htpasswd -B htpasswd anotherUser
|
|
|
|
The password file can be updated while rclone is running.
|
|
|
|
Use --realm to set the authentication realm.
|
|
|
|
### SSL/TLS
|
|
|
|
By default this will serve over http. If you want you can serve over
|
|
https. You will need to supply the --cert and --key flags. If you
|
|
wish to do client side certificate validation then you will need to
|
|
supply --client-ca also.
|
|
|
|
--cert should be either a PEM encoded certificate or a concatenation
|
|
of that with the CA certificate. --key should be the PEM encoded
|
|
private key and --client-ca should be the PEM encoded client
|
|
certificate authority certificate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rclone serve restic remote:path [flags]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
