rclone-backup

Graphical user interface to rclone for backups to cloud-storages like Amazon, Dropbox, Google, FTP, SCP, ... with support for end-to-end-encryption.

Configuration

Configuration has to be made in rclone-backup.ini accordingly to the rclone-API-documentation and is divided into 3 sections

• config/create: https://rclone.org/rc/#config-create
• mount: https://rclone.org/rc/#mount-mount
• sync: https://rclone.org/rc/#sync-sync

For each section multiple entries can be specified.

Example cloud-storage at SCP-server:

[config/create]
name=Cloud type=sftp  parameters={ "host":"scp.example.com", "user":"username", "pass":"password", "disable_hashcheck":true }

[mount]
fs=Cloud: mountPoint=X: vfsOpt={ "CacheMode":"writes", "CacheMaxSize":"1000M" } mountOpt={ "VolumeName":"Cloud" }          _config={ "ModifyWindow":1000000000 }

[sync]
srcFs=D:\data\photos dstFs=Cloud:photos    createEmptySrcDirs=true _config={ "ModifyWindow":1000000000 }
srcFs=E:\documents   dstFs=Cloud:documents createEmptySrcDirs=true _config={ "ModifyWindow":1000000000 }

Example cloud-storage at SCP-server with end-to-end-encryption:

[config/create]
name=CloudRemote type=sftp  parameters={ "host":"scp.example.com", "user":"username", "pass":"password", "disable_hashcheck":true }
name=Cloud       type=crypt parameters={ "remote":"CloudRemote:/path1/path2", "password":"encryption-password" }

[mount]
fs=Cloud:                   mountPoint=X: vfsOpt={ "CacheMode":"writes", "CacheMaxSize":"1000M" } mountOpt={ "VolumeName":"Cloud" }          _config={ "ModifyWindow":1000000000 }
fs=CloudRemote:/path1/path2 mountPoint=Y: vfsOpt={ "CacheMode":"writes", "CacheMaxSize":"1000M" } mountOpt={ "VolumeName":"CloudEncrypted" } _config={ "ModifyWindow":1000000000 }

[sync]
srcFs=D:\data\photos dstFs=Cloud:photos    createEmptySrcDirs=true _config={ "ModifyWindow":1000000000 }
srcFs=E:\documents   dstFs=Cloud:documents createEmptySrcDirs=true _config={ "ModifyWindow":1000000000 }

To store the password obscured in the configuration-file rclone can be used to obscure the password:
rclone obscure password

Known errors

"Queue" may still show entries at mount, although transfer is completed.
