These commands are for implementing backend specific
functionality. They have documentation which is placed automatically
into the backend doc.
There is a simple test for the feature in the backend tests.
Before this change you could only configure the local backend flags
which don't have the local prefix (eg `--copy-links`) with
`RCLONE_LOCAL_COPY_LINKS`.
This change makes `RCLONE_COPY_LINKS` valid too which is much more
logical for the users.
Fixes#3534
Before this change it was possible to make a remote with an invalid
name in the config file, either manually or with `rclone config
create` (but not with `rclone config`).
When this remote was used, because it was invalid, rclone would
presume this remote name was a local directory for a very suprising
user experience!
This change checks remote names more carefully and returns errors
- when the user tries to use an invalid remote name on the command line
- when an invalid remote name is used in `rclone config create/update/password`
- when the user tries to enter an invalid remote name in `rclone config`
This does not prevent the user entering a remote name with invalid
characters in the config manually, but such a remote will fail
immediately when it is used on the command line.
- Change rclone/fs interfaces to accept context.Context
- Update interface implementations to use context.Context
- Change top level usage to propagate context to lover level functions
Context propagation is needed for stopping transfers and passing other
request-scoped values.
Make the pacer package more flexible by extracting the pace calculation
functions into a separate interface. This also allows to move features
that require the fs package like logging and custom errors into the fs
package.
Also add a RetryAfterError sentinel error that can be used to signal a
desired retry time to the Calculator.
This change allows remotes to be created on the fly without a config
file by using the remote type prefixed with a : as the remote name, Eg
:s3: to make an s3 remote.
This assumes the user is supplying the backend config via command line
flags or environment variables.
--max-backlog controls the queue length.
Add statistics for the check/upload/rename queues.
This means that checking can complete before the uploads which will
give rclone the ability to show exactly what is outstanding.
This unifies the 3 methods of reading config
* command line
* environment variable
* config file
And allows them all to be configured in all places. This is done by
making the []fs.Option in the backend registration be the master
source of what the backend options are.
The backend changes are:
* Use the new configmap.Mapper parameter
* Use configstruct to parse it into an Options struct
* Add all config to []fs.Option including defaults and help
* Remove all uses of pflag
* Remove all uses of config.FileGet
Before this copyto would parse windows paths incorrectly.
This change moves the parsing code into fspath and makes sure
fspath.Split calls fspath.Parse which does the parsing correctly for
This also renames fspath.RemoteParse to fspath.Parse for consistency
* Implement about for:
* local, crypt, cache, drive, swift, hubic, onedrive, pcloud, dropbox
* Implement `--json` and `---full` flag for `rclone about`
* change About interface to return a Usage structure
* Remove operations.About as it is too thin an interface
* Implement Integration test
Relates to #1138 and #1564
This introduces a method of making provider specific configuration
within a remote. This is useful particularly in s3.
This commit does the basic configuration in S3 for IBM COS.
The purpose of this is to make it easier to maintain and eventually to
allow the rclone backends to be re-used in other projects without
having to use the rclone configuration system.
The new code layout is documented in CONTRIBUTING.
