If the modification time needs to be updated rclone will attempt to perform a server side copy to update the modification if the object can be copied in a single part. In the case the object is larger than 5Gb or is in Glacier or Glacier Deep Archive storage the object will be uploaded rather than copied. Note that reading this from the object takes an additional `HEAD` request as the metadata isn't returned in object listings. ### Reducing costs #### Avoiding HEAD requests to read the modification time By default rclone will use the modification time of objects stored in S3 for syncing. This is stored in object metadata which unfortunately takes an extra HEAD request to read which can be expensive (in time and money). The modification time is used by default for all operations that require checking the time a file was last updated. It allows rclone to treat the remote more like a true filesystem, but it is inefficient on S3 because it requires an extra API call to retrieve the metadata. The extra API calls can be avoided when syncing (using `rclone sync` or `rclone copy`) in a few different ways, each with its own tradeoffs. - `--size-only` - Only checks the size of files. - Uses no extra transactions. - If the file doesn't change size then rclone won't detect it has changed. - `rclone sync --size-only /path/to/source s3:bucket` - `--checksum` - Checks the size and MD5 checksum of files. - Uses no extra transactions. - The most accurate detection of changes possible. - Will cause the source to read an MD5 checksum which, if it is a local disk, will cause lots of disk activity. - If the source and destination are both S3 this is the **recommended** flag to use for maximum efficiency. - `rclone sync --checksum /path/to/source s3:bucket` - `--update --use-server-modtime` - Uses no extra transactions. - Modification time becomes the time the object was uploaded. - For many operations this is sufficient to determine if it needs uploading. - Using `--update` along with `--use-server-modtime`, avoids the extra API call and uploads files whose local modification time is newer than the time it was last uploaded. - Files created with timestamps in the past will be missed by the sync. - `rclone sync --update --use-server-modtime /path/to/source s3:bucket` These flags can and should be used in combination with `--fast-list` - see below. If using `rclone mount` or any command using the VFS (eg `rclone serve`) commands then you might want to consider using the VFS flag `--no-modtime` which will stop rclone reading the modification time for every object. You could also use `--use-server-modtime` if you are happy with the modification times of the objects being the time of upload. #### Avoiding GET requests to read directory listings Rclone's default directory traversal is to process each directory individually. This takes one API call per directory. Using the `--fast-list` flag will read all info about the the objects into memory first using a smaller number of API calls (one per 1000 objects). See the [rclone docs](/docs/#fast-list) for more details. rclone sync --fast-list --checksum /path/to/source s3:bucket `--fast-list` trades off API transactions for memory use. As a rough guide rclone uses 1k of memory per object stored, so using `--fast-list` on a sync of a million objects will use roughly 1 GiB of RAM. If you are only copying a small number of files into a big repository then using `--no-traverse` is a good idea. This finds objects directly instead of through directory listings. You can do a "top-up" sync very cheaply by using `--max-age` and `--no-traverse` to copy only recent files, eg rclone copy --min-age 24h --no-traverse /path/to/source s3:bucket You'd then do a full `rclone sync` less often. Note that `--fast-list` isn't required in the top-up sync. #### Avoiding HEAD requests after PUT By default rclone will HEAD every object it uploads. It does this to check the object got uploaded correctly. You can disable this with the [--s3-no-head](#s3-no-head) option - see there for more details. Setting this flag increases the chance for undetected upload failures. ### Hashes ### For small objects which weren't uploaded as multipart uploads (objects sized below `--s3-upload-cutoff` if uploaded with rclone) rclone uses the `ETag:` header as an MD5 checksum. However for objects which were uploaded as multipart uploads or with server side encryption (SSE-AWS or SSE-C) the `ETag` header is no longer the MD5 sum of the data, so rclone adds an additional piece of metadata `X-Amz-Meta-Md5chksum` which is a base64 encoded MD5 hash (in the same format as is required for `Content-MD5`). For large objects, calculating this hash can take some time so the addition of this hash can be disabled with `--s3-disable-checksum`. This will mean that these objects do not have an MD5 checksum. Note that reading this from the object takes an additional `HEAD` request as the metadata isn't returned in object listings. ### Cleanup ### If you run `rclone cleanup s3:bucket` then it will remove all pending multipart uploads older than 24 hours. You can use the `-i` flag to see exactly what it will do. If you want more control over the expiry date then run `rclone backend cleanup s3:bucket -o max-age=1h` to expire all uploads older than one hour. You can use `rclone backend list-multipart-uploads s3:bucket` to see the pending multipart uploads. #### Restricted filename characters S3 allows any valid UTF-8 string as a key. Invalid UTF-8 bytes will be [replaced](/overview/#invalid-utf8), as they can't be used in XML. The following characters are replaced since these are problematic when dealing with the REST API: | Character | Value | Replacement | | --------- |:-----:|:-----------:| | NUL | 0x00 | ␀ | | / | 0x2F | / | The encoding will also encode these file names as they don't seem to work with the SDK properly: | File name | Replacement | | --------- |:-----------:| | . | . | | .. | .. | ### Multipart uploads ### rclone supports multipart uploads with S3 which means that it can upload files bigger than 5 GiB. Note that files uploaded *both* with multipart upload *and* through crypt remotes do not have MD5 sums. rclone switches from single part uploads to multipart uploads at the point specified by `--s3-upload-cutoff`. This can be a maximum of 5 GiB and a minimum of 0 (ie always upload multipart files). The chunk sizes used in the multipart upload are specified by `--s3-chunk-size` and the number of chunks uploaded concurrently is specified by `--s3-upload-concurrency`. Multipart uploads will use `--transfers` * `--s3-upload-concurrency` * `--s3-chunk-size` extra memory. Single part uploads to not use extra memory. Single part transfers can be faster than multipart transfers or slower depending on your latency from S3 - the more latency, the more likely single part transfers will be faster. Increasing `--s3-upload-concurrency` will increase throughput (8 would be a sensible value) and increasing `--s3-chunk-size` also increases throughput (16M would be sensible). Increasing either of these will use more memory. The default values are high enough to gain most of the possible performance without using too much memory. ### Buckets and Regions ### With Amazon S3 you can list buckets (`rclone lsd`) using any region, but you can only access the content of a bucket from the region it was created in. If you attempt to access a bucket from the wrong region, you will get an error, `incorrect region, the bucket is not in 'XXX' region`. ### Authentication ### There are a number of ways to supply `rclone` with a set of AWS credentials, with and without using the environment. The different authentication methods are tried in this order: - Directly in the rclone configuration file (`env_auth = false` in the config file): - `access_key_id` and `secret_access_key` are required. - `session_token` can be optionally set when using AWS STS. - Runtime configuration (`env_auth = true` in the config file): - Export the following environment variables before running `rclone`: - Access Key ID: `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` or `AWS_ACCESS_KEY` - Secret Access Key: `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` or `AWS_SECRET_KEY` - Session Token: `AWS_SESSION_TOKEN` (optional) - Or, use a [named profile](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-multiple-profiles.html): - Profile files are standard files used by AWS CLI tools - By default it will use the profile in your home directory (e.g. `~/.aws/credentials` on unix based systems) file and the "default" profile, to change set these environment variables: - `AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE` to control which file. - `AWS_PROFILE` to control which profile to use. - Or, run `rclone` in an ECS task with an IAM role (AWS only). - Or, run `rclone` on an EC2 instance with an IAM role (AWS only). - Or, run `rclone` in an EKS pod with an IAM role that is associated with a service account (AWS only). If none of these option actually end up providing `rclone` with AWS credentials then S3 interaction will be non-authenticated (see below). ### S3 Permissions ### When using the `sync` subcommand of `rclone` the following minimum permissions are required to be available on the bucket being written to: * `ListBucket` * `DeleteObject` * `GetObject` * `PutObject` * `PutObjectACL` When using the `lsd` subcommand, the `ListAllMyBuckets` permission is required. Example policy: ``` { "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Principal": { "AWS": "arn:aws:iam::USER_SID:user/USER_NAME" }, "Action": [ "s3:ListBucket", "s3:DeleteObject", "s3:GetObject", "s3:PutObject", "s3:PutObjectAcl" ], "Resource": [ "arn:aws:s3:::BUCKET_NAME/*", "arn:aws:s3:::BUCKET_NAME" ] }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": "s3:ListAllMyBuckets", "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::*" } ] } ``` Notes on above: 1. This is a policy that can be used when creating bucket. It assumes that `USER_NAME` has been created. 2. The Resource entry must include both resource ARNs, as one implies the bucket and the other implies the bucket's objects. For reference, [here's an Ansible script](https://gist.github.com/ebridges/ebfc9042dd7c756cd101cfa807b7ae2b) that will generate one or more buckets that will work with `rclone sync`. ### Key Management System (KMS) ### If you are using server-side encryption with KMS then you must make sure rclone is configured with `server_side_encryption = aws:kms` otherwise you will find you can't transfer small objects - these will create checksum errors. ### Glacier and Glacier Deep Archive ### You can upload objects using the glacier storage class or transition them to glacier using a [lifecycle policy](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/user-guide/create-lifecycle.html). The bucket can still be synced or copied into normally, but if rclone tries to access data from the glacier storage class you will see an error like below. 2017/09/11 19:07:43 Failed to sync: failed to open source object: Object in GLACIER, restore first: path/to/file In this case you need to [restore](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/user-guide/restore-archived-objects.html) the object(s) in question before using rclone. Note that rclone only speaks the S3 API it does not speak the Glacier Vault API, so rclone cannot directly access Glacier Vaults. {{< rem autogenerated options start" - DO NOT EDIT - instead edit fs.RegInfo in backend/s3/s3.go then run make backenddocs" >}} ### Standard Options Here are the standard options specific to s3 (Amazon S3 Compliant Storage Providers including AWS, Alibaba, Ceph, Digital Ocean, Dreamhost, IBM COS, Minio, SeaweedFS, and Tencent COS). #### --s3-provider Choose your S3 provider. - Config: provider - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_PROVIDER - Type: string - Default: "" - Examples: - "AWS" - Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 - "Alibaba" - Alibaba Cloud Object Storage System (OSS) formerly Aliyun - "Ceph" - Ceph Object Storage - "DigitalOcean" - Digital Ocean Spaces - "Dreamhost" - Dreamhost DreamObjects - "IBMCOS" - IBM COS S3 - "Minio" - Minio Object Storage - "Netease" - Netease Object Storage (NOS) - "Scaleway" - Scaleway Object Storage - "SeaweedFS" - SeaweedFS S3 - "StackPath" - StackPath Object Storage - "TencentCOS" - Tencent Cloud Object Storage (COS) - "Wasabi" - Wasabi Object Storage - "Other" - Any other S3 compatible provider #### --s3-env-auth Get AWS credentials from runtime (environment variables or EC2/ECS meta data if no env vars).

The minimum is 0 and the maximum is 5 GiB. - Config: upload_cutoff - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_UPLOAD_CUTOFF - Type: SizeSuffix - Default: 200M #### --s3-chunk-size Chunk size to use for uploading. When uploading files larger than upload_cutoff or files with unknown size (e.g. from "rclone rcat" or uploaded with "rclone mount" or google photos or google docs) they will be uploaded as multipart uploads using this chunk size. Note that "--s3-upload-concurrency" chunks of this size are buffered in memory per transfer. If you are transferring large files over high-speed links and you have enough memory, then increasing this will speed up the transfers. Rclone will automatically increase the chunk size when uploading a large file of known size to stay below the 10,000 chunks limit. Files of unknown size are uploaded with the configured chunk_size. Since the default chunk size is 5 MiB and there can be at most 10,000 chunks, this means that by default the maximum size of a file you can stream upload is 48 GiB. If you wish to stream upload larger files then you will need to increase chunk_size. - Config: chunk_size - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_CHUNK_SIZE - Type: SizeSuffix - Default: 5M #### --s3-max-upload-parts Maximum number of parts in a multipart upload. This option defines the maximum number of multipart chunks to use when doing a multipart upload. This can be useful if a service does not support the AWS S3 specification of 10,000 chunks. Rclone will automatically increase the chunk size when uploading a large file of a known size to stay below this number of chunks limit. - Config: max_upload_parts - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_MAX_UPLOAD_PARTS - Type: int - Default: 10000 #### --s3-copy-cutoff Cutoff for switching to multipart copy Any files larger than this that need to be server-side copied will be copied in chunks of this size. The minimum is 0 and the maximum is 5 GiB. - Config: copy_cutoff - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_COPY_CUTOFF - Type: SizeSuffix - Default: 4.656G #### --s3-disable-checksum Don't store MD5 checksum with object metadata Normally rclone will calculate the MD5 checksum of the input before uploading it so it can add it to metadata on the object. This is great for data integrity checking but can cause long delays for large files to start uploading. - Config: disable_checksum - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_DISABLE_CHECKSUM - Type: bool - Default: false #### --s3-shared-credentials-file Path to the shared credentials file If env_auth = true then rclone can use a shared credentials file. If this variable is empty rclone will look for the "AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE" env variable. If the env value is empty it will default to the current user's home directory. Linux/OSX: "$HOME/.aws/credentials" Windows: "%USERPROFILE%\.aws\credentials" - Config: shared_credentials_file - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE - Type: string - Default: "" #### --s3-profile Profile to use in the shared credentials file If env_auth = true then rclone can use a shared credentials file. This variable controls which profile is used in that file. If empty it will default to the environment variable "AWS_PROFILE" or "default" if that environment variable is also not set. - Config: profile - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_PROFILE - Type: string - Default: "" #### --s3-session-token An AWS session token - Config: session_token - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_SESSION_TOKEN - Type: string - Default: "" #### --s3-upload-concurrency Concurrency for multipart uploads. This is the number of chunks of the same file that are uploaded concurrently. If you are uploading small numbers of large files over high-speed links and these uploads do not fully utilize your bandwidth, then increasing this may help to speed up the transfers. - Config: upload_concurrency - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_UPLOAD_CONCURRENCY - Type: int - Default: 4 #### --s3-force-path-style If true use path style access if false use virtual hosted style. If this is true (the default) then rclone will use path style access, if false then rclone will use virtual path style. See [the AWS S3 docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/UsingBucket.html#access-bucket-intro) for more info. Some providers (e.g. AWS, Aliyun OSS, Netease COS, or Tencent COS) require this set to false - rclone will do this automatically based on the provider setting. - Config: force_path_style - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_FORCE_PATH_STYLE - Type: bool - Default: true #### --s3-v2-auth If true use v2 authentication. If this is false (the default) then rclone will use v4 authentication. If it is set then rclone will use v2 authentication. Use this only if v4 signatures don't work, e.g. pre Jewel/v10 CEPH. - Config: v2_auth - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_V2_AUTH - Type: bool - Default: false #### --s3-use-accelerate-endpoint If true use the AWS S3 accelerated endpoint. See: [AWS S3 Transfer acceleration](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/transfer-acceleration-examples.html) - Config: use_accelerate_endpoint - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_USE_ACCELERATE_ENDPOINT - Type: bool - Default: false #### --s3-leave-parts-on-error If true avoid calling abort upload on a failure, leaving all successfully uploaded parts on S3 for manual recovery. It should be set to true for resuming uploads across different sessions. WARNING: Storing parts of an incomplete multipart upload counts towards space usage on S3 and will add additional costs if not cleaned up. - Config: leave_parts_on_error - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_LEAVE_PARTS_ON_ERROR - Type: bool - Default: false #### --s3-list-chunk Size of listing chunk (response list for each ListObject S3 request). This option is also known as "MaxKeys", "max-items", or "page-size" from the AWS S3 specification. Most services truncate the response list to 1000 objects even if requested more than that. In AWS S3 this is a global maximum and cannot be changed, see [AWS S3](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3/ls.html). In Ceph, this can be increased with the "rgw list buckets max chunk" option. - Config: list_chunk - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_LIST_CHUNK - Type: int - Default: 1000 #### --s3-no-check-bucket If set, don't attempt to check the bucket exists or create it This can be useful when trying to minimise the number of transactions rclone does if you know the bucket exists already. It can also be needed if the user you are using does not have bucket creation permissions. Before v1.52.0 this would have passed silently due to a bug. - Config: no_check_bucket - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_NO_CHECK_BUCKET - Type: bool - Default: false #### --s3-no-head If set, don't HEAD uploaded objects to check integrity This can be useful when trying to minimise the number of transactions rclone does. Setting it means that if rclone receives a 200 OK message after uploading an object with PUT then it will assume that it got uploaded properly. In particular it will assume: - the metadata, including modtime, storage class and content type was as uploaded - the size was as uploaded It reads the following items from the response for a single part PUT: - the MD5SUM - The uploaded date For multipart uploads these items aren't read. If an source object of unknown length is uploaded then rclone **will** do a HEAD request. Setting this flag increases the chance for undetected upload failures, in particular an incorrect size, so it isn't recommended for normal operation. In practice the chance of an undetected upload failure is very small even with this flag. - Config: no_head - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_NO_HEAD - Type: bool - Default: false #### --s3-encoding This sets the encoding for the backend. See: the [encoding section in the overview](/overview/#encoding) for more info. - Config: encoding - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_ENCODING - Type: MultiEncoder - Default: Slash,InvalidUtf8,Dot #### --s3-memory-pool-flush-time How often internal memory buffer pools will be flushed. Uploads which requires additional buffers (f.e multipart) will use memory pool for allocations. This option controls how often unused buffers will be removed from the pool. - Config: memory_pool_flush_time - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_MEMORY_POOL_FLUSH_TIME - Type: Duration - Default: 1m0s #### --s3-memory-pool-use-mmap Whether to use mmap buffers in internal memory pool. - Config: memory_pool_use_mmap - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_MEMORY_POOL_USE_MMAP - Type: bool - Default: false #### --s3-disable-http2 Disable usage of http2 for S3 backends There is currently an unsolved issue with the s3 (specifically minio) backend and HTTP/2. HTTP/2 is enabled by default for the s3 backend but can be disabled here. When the issue is solved this flag will be removed. See: https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/4673, https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/3631 - Config: disable_http2 - Env Var: RCLONE_S3_DISABLE_HTTP2 - Type: bool - Default: false ### Backend commands Here are the commands specific to the s3 backend. Run them with rclone backend COMMAND remote: The help below will explain what arguments each command takes. See [the "rclone backend" command](/commands/rclone_backend/) for more info on how to pass options and arguments. These can be run on a running backend using the rc command [backend/command](/rc/#backend/command). #### restore Restore objects from GLACIER to normal storage rclone backend restore remote: [options] [+] This command can be used to restore one or more objects from GLACIER to normal storage. Usage Examples: rclone backend restore s3:bucket/path/to/object [-o priority=PRIORITY] [-o lifetime=DAYS] rclone backend restore s3:bucket/path/to/directory [-o priority=PRIORITY] [-o lifetime=DAYS] rclone backend restore s3:bucket [-o priority=PRIORITY] [-o lifetime=DAYS] This flag also obeys the filters. Test first with -i/--interactive or --dry-run flags rclone -i backend restore --include "*.txt" s3:bucket/path -o priority=Standard All the objects shown will be marked for restore, then rclone backend restore --include "*.txt" s3:bucket/path -o priority=Standard It returns a list of status dictionaries with Remote and Status keys. The Status will be OK if it was successful or an error message if not. [ { "Status": "OK", "Path": "test.txt" }, { "Status": "OK", "Path": "test/file4.txt" } ] Options: - "description": The optional description for the job. - "lifetime": Lifetime of the active copy in days - "priority": Priority of restore: Standard|Expedited|Bulk #### list-multipart-uploads List the unfinished multipart uploads rclone backend list-multipart-uploads remote: [options] [+] This command lists the unfinished multipart uploads in JSON format. rclone backend list-multipart s3:bucket/path/to/object It returns a dictionary of buckets with values as lists of unfinished multipart uploads. You can call it with no bucket in which case it lists all bucket, with a bucket or with a bucket and path. { "rclone": [ { "Initiated": "2020-06-26T14:20:36Z", "Initiator": { "DisplayName": "XXX", "ID": "arn:aws:iam::XXX:user/XXX" }, "Key": "KEY", "Owner": { "DisplayName": null, "ID": "XXX" }, "StorageClass": "STANDARD", "UploadId": "XXX" } ], "rclone-1000files": [], "rclone-dst": [] } #### cleanup Remove unfinished multipart uploads. rclone backend cleanup remote: [options] [+] This command removes unfinished multipart uploads of age greater than max-age which defaults to 24 hours. Note that you can use -i/--dry-run with this command to see what it would do. rclone backend cleanup s3:bucket/path/to/object rclone backend cleanup -o max-age=7w s3:bucket/path/to/object Durations are parsed as per the rest of rclone, 2h, 7d, 7w etc. Options: - "max-age": Max age of upload to delete {{< rem autogenerated options stop >}} ### Anonymous access to public buckets ### If you want to use rclone to access a public bucket, configure with a blank `access_key_id` and `secret_access_key`. Your config should end up looking like this: ``` [anons3] type = s3 provider = AWS env_auth = false access_key_id = secret_access_key = region = us-east-1 endpoint = location_constraint = acl = private server_side_encryption = storage_class = ``` Then use it as normal with the name of the public bucket, e.g. rclone lsd anons3:1000genomes You will be able to list and copy data but not upload it. ### Ceph ### [Ceph](https://ceph.com/) is an open source unified, distributed storage system designed for excellent performance, reliability and scalability. It has an S3 compatible object storage interface. To use rclone with Ceph, configure as above but leave the region blank and set the endpoint. You should end up with something like this in your config: ``` [ceph] type = s3 provider = Ceph env_auth = false access_key_id = XXX secret_access_key = YYY region = endpoint = https://ceph.endpoint.example.com location_constraint = acl = server_side_encryption = storage_class = ``` If you are using an older version of CEPH, e.g. 10.2.x Jewel, then you may need to supply the parameter `--s3-upload-cutoff 0` or put this in the config file as `upload_cutoff 0` to work around a bug which causes uploading of small files to fail. Note also that Ceph sometimes puts `/` in the passwords it gives users. If you read the secret access key using the command line tools you will get a JSON blob with the `/` escaped as `\/`. Make sure you only write `/` in the secret access key. Eg the dump from Ceph looks something like this (irrelevant keys removed). ``` { "user_id": "xxx", "display_name": "xxxx", "keys": [ { "user": "xxx", "access_key": "xxxxxx", "secret_key": "xxxxxx\/xxxx" } ], } ``` Because this is a json dump, it is encoding the `/` as `\/`, so if you use the secret key as `xxxxxx/xxxx` it will work fine. ### Dreamhost ### Dreamhost [DreamObjects](https://www.dreamhost.com/cloud/storage/) is an object storage system based on CEPH. To use rclone with Dreamhost, configure as above but leave the region blank and set the endpoint. You should end up with something like this in your config: ``` [dreamobjects] type = s3 provider = DreamHost env_auth = false access_key_id = your_access_key secret_access_key = your_secret_key region = endpoint = objects-us-west-1.dream.io location_constraint = acl = private server_side_encryption = storage_class = ``` ### DigitalOcean Spaces ### [Spaces](https://www.digitalocean.com/products/object-storage/) is an [S3-interoperable](https://developers.digitalocean.com/documentation/spaces/) object storage service from cloud provider DigitalOcean. To connect to DigitalOcean Spaces you will need an access key and secret key. These can be retrieved on the "[Applications & API](https://cloud.digitalocean.com/settings/api/tokens)" page of the DigitalOcean control panel. They will be needed when prompted by `rclone config` for your `access_key_id` and `secret_access_key`. When prompted for a `region` or `location_constraint`, press enter to use the default value. The region must be included in the `endpoint` setting (e.g. `nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com`). The default values can be used for other settings. Going through the whole process of creating a new remote by running `rclone config`, each prompt should be answered as shown below: ``` Storage> s3 env_auth> 1 access_key_id> YOUR_ACCESS_KEY secret_access_key> YOUR_SECRET_KEY region> endpoint> nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com location_constraint> acl> storage_class> ``` The resulting configuration file should look like: ``` [spaces] type = s3 provider = DigitalOcean env_auth = false access_key_id = YOUR_ACCESS_KEY secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET_KEY region = endpoint = nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com location_constraint = acl = server_side_encryption = storage_class = ``` Once configured, you can create a new Space and begin copying files. For example: ``` rclone mkdir spaces:my-new-space rclone copy /path/to/files spaces:my-new-space ``` ### IBM COS (S3) ### Information stored with IBM Cloud Object Storage is encrypted and dispersed across multiple geographic locations, and accessed through an implementation of the S3 API. This service makes use of the distributed storage technologies provided by IBM’s Cloud Object Storage System (formerly Cleversafe). For more information visit: (http://www.ibm.com/cloud/object-storage) To configure access to IBM COS S3, follow the steps below: 1.

This acl is available on IBM Cloud (Infra) and On-Premise IBM COS \ "authenticated-read" acl> 1 ``` 12. Review the displayed configuration and accept to save the "remote" then quit. The config file should look like this ``` [xxx] type = s3 Provider = IBMCOS access_key_id = xxx secret_access_key = yyy endpoint = s3-api.us-geo.objectstorage.softlayer.net location_constraint = us-standard acl = private ``` 13. Execute rclone commands ``` 1) Create a bucket. rclone mkdir IBM-COS-XREGION:newbucket 2) List available buckets. rclone lsd IBM-COS-XREGION: -1 2017-11-08 21:16:22 -1 test -1 2018-02-14 20:16:39 -1 newbucket 3) List contents of a bucket. rclone ls IBM-COS-XREGION:newbucket 18685952 test.exe 4) Copy a file from local to remote. rclone copy /Users/file.txt IBM-COS-XREGION:newbucket 5) Copy a file from remote to local. rclone copy IBM-COS-XREGION:newbucket/file.txt . 6) Delete a file on remote. rclone delete IBM-COS-XREGION:newbucket/file.txt ``` ### Minio ### [Minio](https://minio.io/) is an object storage server built for cloud application developers and devops. It is very easy to install and provides an S3 compatible server which can be used by rclone. To use it, install Minio following the instructions [here](https://docs.minio.io/docs/minio-quickstart-guide). When it configures itself Minio will print something like this ``` Endpoint: http://192.168.1.106:9000 http://172.23.0.1:9000 AccessKey: USWUXHGYZQYFYFFIT3RE SecretKey: MOJRH0mkL1IPauahWITSVvyDrQbEEIwljvmxdq03 Region: us-east-1 SQS ARNs: arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:redis arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:2:redis Browser Access: http://192.168.1.106:9000 http://172.23.0.1:9000 Command-line Access: https://docs.minio.io/docs/minio-client-quickstart-guide $ mc config host add myminio http://192.168.1.106:9000 USWUXHGYZQYFYFFIT3RE MOJRH0mkL1IPauahWITSVvyDrQbEEIwljvmxdq03 Object API (Amazon S3 compatible): Go: https://docs.minio.io/docs/golang-client-quickstart-guide Java: https://docs.minio.io/docs/java-client-quickstart-guide Python: https://docs.minio.io/docs/python-client-quickstart-guide JavaScript: https://docs.minio.io/docs/javascript-client-quickstart-guide .NET: https://docs.minio.io/docs/dotnet-client-quickstart-guide Drive Capacity: 26 GiB Free, 165 GiB Total ``` These details need to go into `rclone config` like this. Note that it is important to put the region in as stated above. ``` env_auth> 1 access_key_id> USWUXHGYZQYFYFFIT3RE secret_access_key> MOJRH0mkL1IPauahWITSVvyDrQbEEIwljvmxdq03 region> us-east-1 endpoint> http://192.168.1.106:9000 location_constraint> server_side_encryption> ``` Which makes the config file look like this ``` [minio] type = s3 provider = Minio env_auth = false access_key_id = USWUXHGYZQYFYFFIT3RE secret_access_key = MOJRH0mkL1IPauahWITSVvyDrQbEEIwljvmxdq03 region = us-east-1 endpoint = http://192.168.1.106:9000 location_constraint = server_side_encryption = ``` So once set up, for example to copy files into a bucket ``` rclone copy /path/to/files minio:bucket ``` ### Scaleway {#scaleway} [Scaleway](https://www.scaleway.com/object-storage/) The Object Storage platform allows you to store anything from backups, logs and web assets to documents and photos. Files can be dropped from the Scaleway console or transferred through our API and CLI or using any S3-compatible tool. Scaleway provides an S3 interface which can be configured for use with rclone like this: ``` [scaleway] type = s3 provider = Scaleway env_auth = false endpoint = s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud access_key_id = SCWXXXXXXXXXXXXXX secret_access_key = 1111111-2222-3333-44444-55555555555555 region = nl-ams location_constraint = acl = private server_side_encryption = storage_class = ``` ### SeaweedFS ### [SeaweedFS](https://github.com/chrislusf/seaweedfs/) is a distributed storage system for blobs, objects, files, and data lake, with O(1) disk seek and a scalable file metadata store. It has an S3 compatible object storage interface. Assuming the SeaweedFS are configured with `weed shell` as such: ``` > s3.bucket.create -name foo > s3.configure -access_key=any -secret_key=any -buckets=foo -user=me -actions=Read,Write,List,Tagging,Admin -apply { "identities": [ { "name": "me", "credentials": [ { "accessKey": "any", "secretKey": "any" } ], "actions": [ "Read:foo", "Write:foo", "List:foo", "Tagging:foo", "Admin:foo" ] } ] } ``` To use rclone with SeaweedFS, above configuration should end up with something like this in your config: ``` [seaweedfs_s3] type = s3 provider = SeaweedFS access_key_id = any secret_access_key = any endpoint = localhost:8333 ``` So once set up, for example to copy files into a bucket ``` rclone copy /path/to/files seaweedfs_s3:foo ``` ### Wasabi ### [Wasabi](https://wasabi.com) is a cloud-based object storage service for a broad range of applications and use cases. Wasabi is designed for individuals and organizations that require a high-performance, reliable, and secure data storage infrastructure at minimal cost. Wasabi provides an S3 interface which can be configured for use with rclone like this. ``` No remotes found - make a new one n) New remote s) Set configuration password n/s> n name> wasabi Type of storage to configure.

This will automatically set `force_path_style = false` which is necessary for it to run properly. ### Limitations `rclone about` is not supported by the S3 backend. Backends without this capability cannot determine free space for an rclone mount or use policy `mfs` (most free space) as a member of an rclone union remote. See [List of backends that do not support rclone about](https://rclone.org/overview/#optional-features) See [rclone about](https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_about/)
