<i class="fa fa-link"></i> Alias
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The `alias` remote provides a new name for another remote.
|
|
|
|
Paths may be as deep as required or a local path,
|
|
eg `remote:directory/subdirectory` or `/directory/subdirectory`.
|
|
|
|
During the initial setup with `rclone config` you will specify the target
|
|
remote. The target remote can either be a local path or another remote.
|
|
|
|
Subfolders can be used in target remote. Assume a alias remote named `backup`
|
|
with the target `mydrive:private/backup`. Invoking `rclone mkdir backup:desktop`
|
|
is exactly the same as invoking `rclone mkdir mydrive:private/backup/desktop`.
|
|
|
|
There will be no special handling of paths containing `..` segments.
|
|
Invoking `rclone mkdir backup:../desktop` is exactly the same as invoking
|
|
`rclone mkdir mydrive:private/backup/../desktop`.
|
|
The empty path is not allowed as a remote. To alias the current directory
|
|
use `.` instead.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of how to make a alias called `remote` for local folder.
|
|
First run:
|
|
|
|
rclone config
|
|
|
|
This will guide you through an interactive setup process:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
No remotes found - make a new one
|
|
n) New remote
|
|
s) Set configuration password
|
|
q) Quit config
|
|
n/s/q> n
|
|
name> remote
|
|
Type of storage to configure.
