# librclone
|
|
|
|
This directory contains code to build rclone as a C library and the
|
|
shims for accessing rclone from C and other languages.
|
|
|
|
**Note** for the moment, the interfaces defined here are experimental
|
|
and may change in the future. Eventually they will stabilse and this
|
|
notice will be removed.
|
|
|
|
## C
|
|
|
|
The shims are a thin wrapper over the rclone RPC.
|
|
|
|
Build a shared library like this:
|
|
|
|
go build --buildmode=c-shared -o librclone.so github.com/rclone/rclone/librclone
|
|
|
|
Build a static library like this:
|
|
|
|
go build --buildmode=c-archive -o librclone.a github.com/rclone/rclone/librclone
|
|
|
|
Both the above commands will also generate `librclone.h` which should
|
|
be `#include`d in `C` programs wishing to use the library.
|
|
|
|
The library will depend on `libdl` and `libpthread`.
|
|
|
|
### Documentation
|
|
|
|
For documentation see the Go documentation for:
|
|
|
|
- [RcloneInitialize](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rclone/rclone/librclone#RcloneInitialize)
|
|
- [RcloneFinalize](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rclone/rclone/librclone#RcloneFinalize)
|
|
- [RcloneRPC](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rclone/rclone/librclone#RcloneRPC)
|
|
|
|
### C Example
|
|
|
|
There is an example program `ctest.c` with `Makefile` in the `ctest` subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
## gomobile
|
|
|
|
The `gomobile` subdirectory contains the equivalent of the C binding but
|
|
suitable for using with [gomobile](https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/mobile/cmd/gomobile)
|
|
using something like this.
|
|
|
|
gomobile bind -v -target=android -javapkg=org.rclone github.com/rclone/rclone/librclone/gomobile
|
|
|
|
The command generates an Android library (`aar`) that can be imported
|
|
into an Android application project. Librclone will be contained
|
|
within `libgojni.so` and loaded automatically.
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
// imports
|
|
import org.rclone.gomobile.Gomobile;
|
|
import org.rclone.gomobile.RcloneRPCResult;
|
|
|
|
// initialize rclone
|
|
Gomobile.rcloneInitialize();
|
|
|
|
// call RC method and log response.
|
|
RcloneRPCResult response = Gomobile.rcloneRPC("core/version", "{}");
|
|
Log.i("rclone", "response status: " + response.getStatus());
|
|
Log.i("rclone", "output: " + response.getOutput());
|
|
|
|
// Clean up when finished.
|
|
Gomobile.rcloneFinalize();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This is a low level interface - serialization, job management etc must
|
|
be built on top of it.
|
|
|
|
iOS has not been tested (but should probably work).

## python
|
|
|
|
The `python` subdirectory contains a simple Python wrapper for the C
|
|
API using rclone linked as a shared library with `ctypes`.
|
|
|
|
You are welcome to use this directly.
|
|
|
|
This needs expanding and submitting to pypi...
|
|
|
|
## TODO
|
|
|
|
- Async jobs must currently be cancelled manually at the moment - RcloneFinalize doesn't do it.
|
|
- This will use the rclone config system and rclone logging system.
|
|
- Need examples showing how to configure things,
