rclone

• Official Site

Rclone is a command line program to manage files on cloud storage.

• I followed the steps for Storj here

• To add/edit a cloud provider

  rclone config
  

  and follow the prompts

Bucket commands

• Create a bucket

  rclone mkdir <provider>:<new-bucker-name>
  

• List all buckets

  rclone lsf <provider>:
  

• Delete an empty bucket

  rclone rmdir <provider>:<bucket-name>
  

• Delete non-empty bucket

  rclone purge <provider>:<bucket-name>
  

Object commands

• Copy an object from SRC to DST

  rclone copy [--progress] SRC DST
  

  • SRC/DST can be local/remote.

• List objects

  rclone ls <provider>:<bucker>/path
  

  • use lsf for non-recursive

• Delete an object

  rclone delete[file] <provider>:<bucket>/path
  

• Sync SRC and DST

  Use the sync command to sync the source to the destination, changing the destination only. Doesn’t transfer unchanged files, testing by size and modification time or MD5SUM. Destination is updated to match source, including deleting files if necessary.

  rclone sync [--progress] SRC DST
