# rclone serve webdav
|
|
|
|
Serve remote:path over WebDAV.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
Run a basic WebDAV server to serve a remote over HTTP via the
|
|
WebDAV protocol. This can be viewed with a WebDAV client, through a web
|
|
browser, or you can make a remote of type WebDAV to read and write it.
|
|
|
|
## WebDAV options
|
|
|
|
### --etag-hash
|
|
|
|
This controls the ETag header. Without this flag the ETag will be
|
|
based on the ModTime and Size of the object.
|
|
|
|
If this flag is set to "auto" then rclone will choose the first
|
|
supported hash on the backend or you can use a named hash such as
|
|
"MD5" or "SHA-1". Use the [hashsum](/commands/rclone_hashsum/) command
|
|
to see the full list.
|
|
|
|
## Access WebDAV on Windows
|
|
WebDAV shared folder can be mapped as a drive on Windows, however the default settings prevent it.
|
|
Windows will fail to connect to the server using insecure Basic authentication.
|
|
It will not even display any login dialog. Windows requires SSL / HTTPS connection to be used with Basic.
|
|
If you try to connect via Add Network Location Wizard you will get the following error:
|
|
"The folder you entered does not appear to be valid. Please choose another".
|
|
However, you still can connect if you set the following registry key on a client machine:
|
|
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters\BasicAuthLevel to 2.
|
|
The BasicAuthLevel can be set to the following values:
|
|
0 - Basic authentication disabled
|
|
1 - Basic authentication enabled for SSL connections only
|
|
2 - Basic authentication enabled for SSL connections and for non-SSL connections
|
|
If required, increase the FileSizeLimitInBytes to a higher value.
|
|
Navigate to the Services interface, then restart the WebClient service.
|
|
|
|
## Access Office applications on WebDAV
|
|
Navigate to following registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\[14.0/15.0/16.0]\Common\Internet
|
|
Create a new DWORD BasicAuthLevel with value 2.
|
|
0 - Basic authentication disabled
|
|
1 - Basic authentication enabled for SSL connections only
|
|
2 - Basic authentication enabled for SSL and for non-SSL connections

## Server options
|
|
|
|
Use `--addr` to specify which IP address and port the server should
|
|
listen on, eg `--addr 1.2.3.4:8000` or `--addr :8080` to listen to all
|
|
IPs. By default it only listens on localhost. You can use port
|
|
:0 to let the OS choose an available port.
|
|
|
|
If you set `--addr` to listen on a public or LAN accessible IP address
|
|
then using Authentication is advised - see the next section for info.
|
|
|
|
You can use a unix socket by setting the url to `unix:///path/to/socket`
|
|
or just by using an absolute path name. Note that unix sockets bypass the
|
|
authentication - this is expected to be done with file system permissions.
|
|
|
|
`--addr` may be repeated to listen on multiple IPs/ports/sockets.
|
|
|
|
`--server-read-timeout` and `--server-write-timeout` can be used to
|
|
control the timeouts on the server. Note that this is the total time
|
|
for a transfer.
|
|
|
|
`--max-header-bytes` controls the maximum number of bytes the server will
|
|
accept in the HTTP header.
|
|
|
|
`--baseurl` controls the URL prefix that rclone serves from. By default
|
|
rclone will serve from the root. If you used `--baseurl "/rclone"` then
|
|
rclone would serve from a URL starting with "/rclone/". This is
|
|
useful if you wish to proxy rclone serve. Rclone automatically
|
|
inserts leading and trailing "/" on `--baseurl`, so `--baseurl "rclone"`,
|
|
`--baseurl "/rclone"` and `--baseurl "/rclone/"` are all treated
|
|
identically.
|
|
|
|
### TLS (SSL)
|
|
|
|
By default this will serve over http. If you want you can serve over
|
|
https. You will need to supply the `--cert` and `--key` flags.
|
|
If you wish to do client side certificate validation then you will need to
|
|
supply `--client-ca` also.
|
|
|
|
`--cert` should be a either a PEM encoded certificate or a concatenation
|
|
of that with the CA certificate. `--key` should be the PEM encoded
|
|
private key and `--client-ca` should be the PEM encoded client
|
|
certificate authority certificate.
|
|
|
|
--min-tls-version is minimum TLS version that is acceptable. Valid
|
|
values are "tls1.0", "tls1.1", "tls1.2" and "tls1.3" (default
|
|
"tls1.0").
|
|
|
|
### Template
|
|
|
|
`--template` allows a user to specify a custom markup template for HTTP
|
|
and WebDAV serve functions. The server exports the following markup
|
|
to be used within the template to server pages:
|
|
|
|
| Parameter | Description |
|
|
| :---------- | :---------- |
|
|
| .Name | The full path of a file/directory. |
|
|
| .Title | Directory listing of .Name |
|
|
| .Sort | The current sort used. This is changeable via ?sort= parameter |
|
|
| | Sort Options: namedirfirst,name,size,time (default namedirfirst) |
|
|
| .Order | The current ordering used. This is changeable via ?order= parameter |
|
|
| | Order Options: asc,desc (default asc) |
|
|
| .Query | Currently unused. |
|
|
| .Breadcrumb | Allows for creating a relative navigation |
|
|
|-- .Link | The relative to the root link of the Text. |
|
|
|-- .Text | The Name of the directory. |
|
|
| .Entries | Information about a specific file/directory. |
|
|
|-- .URL | The 'url' of an entry. |
|
|
|-- .Leaf | Currently same as 'URL' but intended to be 'just' the name. |
|
|
|-- .IsDir | Boolean for if an entry is a directory or not. |
|
|
|-- .Size | Size in Bytes of the entry. |
|
|
|-- .ModTime | The UTC timestamp of an entry. |
|
|
|
|
The server also makes the following functions available so that they can be used within the
|
|
template. These functions help extend the options for dynamic rendering of HTML. They can
|
|
be used to render HTML based on specific conditions.
|
|
|
|
| Function | Description |
|
|
| :---------- | :---------- |
|
|
| afterEpoch | Returns the time since the epoch for the given time. |
|
|
| contains | Checks whether a given substring is present or not in a given string. |
|
|
| hasPrefix | Checks whether the given string begins with the specified prefix. |
|
|
| hasSuffix | Checks whether the given string end with the specified suffix. |
|
|
|
|
### Authentication
|
|
|
|
By default this will serve files without needing a login.
|
|
|
|
You can either use an htpasswd file which can take lots of users, or
|
|
set a single username and password with the `--user` and `--pass` flags.
|
|
|
|
If no static users are configured by either of the above methods, and client
|
|
certificates are required by the `--client-ca` flag passed to the server, the
|
|
client certificate common name will be considered as the username.
|
|
|
|
Use `--htpasswd /path/to/htpasswd` to provide an htpasswd file. This is
|
|
in standard apache format and supports MD5, SHA1 and BCrypt for basic
|
|
authentication. Bcrypt is recommended.
|
|
|
|
To create an htpasswd file:
|
|
|
|
touch htpasswd
|
|
htpasswd -B htpasswd user
|
|
htpasswd -B htpasswd anotherUser
|
|
|
|
The password file can be updated while rclone is running.
|
|
|
|
Use `--realm` to set the authentication realm.
|
|
|
|
Use `--salt` to change the password hashing salt from the default.
|
|
## VFS - Virtual File System
|
|
|
|
This command uses the VFS layer. This adapts the cloud storage objects
|
|
that rclone uses into something which looks much more like a disk
|
|
filing system.
|
|
|
|
Cloud storage objects have lots of properties which aren't like disk
|
|
files - you can't extend them or write to the middle of them, so the
|
|
VFS layer has to deal with that. Because there is no one right way of
|
|
doing this there are various options explained below.
|
|
|
|
The VFS layer also implements a directory cache - this caches info
|
|
about files and directories (but not the data) in memory.
|
|
|
|
## VFS Directory Cache
|
|
|
|
Using the `--dir-cache-time` flag, you can control how long a
|
|
directory should be considered up to date and not refreshed from the
|
|
backend. Changes made through the VFS will appear immediately or
|
|
invalidate the cache.
|
|
|
|
--dir-cache-time duration Time to cache directory entries for (default 5m0s)
|
|
--poll-interval duration Time to wait between polling for changes. Must be smaller than dir-cache-time. Only on supported remotes. Set to 0 to disable (default 1m0s)
|
|
|
|
However, changes made directly on the cloud storage by the web
|
|
interface or a different copy of rclone will only be picked up once
|
|
the directory cache expires if the backend configured does not support
|
|
polling for changes. If the backend supports polling, changes will be
|
|
picked up within the polling interval.
|
|
|
|
You can send a `SIGHUP` signal to rclone for it to flush all
|
|
directory caches, regardless of how old they are. Assuming only one
|
|
rclone instance is running, you can reset the cache like this:
|
|
|
|
kill -SIGHUP $(pidof rclone)
|
|
|
|
If you configure rclone with a [remote control](/rc) then you can use
|
|
rclone rc to flush the whole directory cache:
|
|
|
|
rclone rc vfs/forget
|
|
|
|
Or individual files or directories:
|
|
|
|
rclone rc vfs/forget file=path/to/file dir=path/to/dir
|
|
|
|
## VFS File Buffering
|
|
|
|
The `--buffer-size` flag determines the amount of memory,
|
|
that will be used to buffer data in advance.
|
|
|
|
Each open file will try to keep the specified amount of data in memory
|
|
at all times. The buffered data is bound to one open file and won't be
|
|
shared.
|
|
|
|
This flag is a upper limit for the used memory per open file. The
|
|
buffer will only use memory for data that is downloaded but not not
|
|
yet read. If the buffer is empty, only a small amount of memory will
|
|
be used.
|
|
|
|
The maximum memory used by rclone for buffering can be up to
|
|
`--buffer-size * open files`.
|
|
|
|
## VFS File Caching
|
|
|
|
These flags control the VFS file caching options. File caching is
|
|
necessary to make the VFS layer appear compatible with a normal file
|
|
system. It can be disabled at the cost of some compatibility.
|
|
|
|
For example you'll need to enable VFS caching if you want to read and
|
|
write simultaneously to a file. See below for more details.
|
|
|
|
Note that the VFS cache is separate from the cache backend and you may
|
|
find that you need one or the other or both.
|
|
|
|
--cache-dir string Directory rclone will use for caching.
|
|
--vfs-cache-mode CacheMode Cache mode off|minimal|writes|full (default off)
|
|
--vfs-cache-max-age duration Max time since last access of objects in the cache (default 1h0m0s)
|
|
--vfs-cache-max-size SizeSuffix Max total size of objects in the cache (default off)
|
|
--vfs-cache-min-free-space SizeSuffix Target minimum free space on the disk containing the cache (default off)
|
|
--vfs-cache-poll-interval duration Interval to poll the cache for stale objects (default 1m0s)
|
|
--vfs-write-back duration Time to writeback files after last use when using cache (default 5s)
|
|
|
|
If run with `-vv` rclone will print the location of the file cache. The
|
|
files are stored in the user cache file area which is OS dependent but
|
|
can be controlled with `--cache-dir` or setting the appropriate
|
|
environment variable.
|
|
|
|
The cache has 4 different modes selected by `--vfs-cache-mode`.
|
|
The higher the cache mode the more compatible rclone becomes at the
|
|
cost of using disk space.
|
|
|
|
Note that files are written back to the remote only when they are
|
|
closed and if they haven't been accessed for `--vfs-write-back`
|
|
seconds. If rclone is quit or dies with files that haven't been
|
|
uploaded, these will be uploaded next time rclone is run with the same
|
|
flags.
|
|
|
|
If using `--vfs-cache-max-size` or `--vfs-cache-min-free-size` note
|
|
that the cache may exceed these quotas for two reasons. Firstly
|
|
because it is only checked every `--vfs-cache-poll-interval`. Secondly
|
|
because open files cannot be evicted from the cache. When
|
|
`--vfs-cache-max-size` or `--vfs-cache-min-free-size` is exceeded,
|
|
rclone will attempt to evict the least accessed files from the cache
|
|
first. rclone will start with files that haven't been accessed for the
|
|
longest. This cache flushing strategy is efficient and more relevant
|
|
files are likely to remain cached.
|
|
|
|
The `--vfs-cache-max-age` will evict files from the cache
|
|
after the set time since last access has passed. The default value of
|
|
1 hour will start evicting files from cache that haven't been accessed
|
|
for 1 hour. When a cached file is accessed the 1 hour timer is reset to 0
|
|
and will wait for 1 more hour before evicting. Specify the time with
|
|
standard notation, s, m, h, d, w .
|
|
|
|
You **should not** run two copies of rclone using the same VFS cache
|
|
with the same or overlapping remotes if using `--vfs-cache-mode > off`.
|
|
This can potentially cause data corruption if you do. You can work
|
|
around this by giving each rclone its own cache hierarchy with
|
|
`--cache-dir`. You don't need to worry about this if the remotes in
|
|
use don't overlap.
|
|
|
|
### --vfs-cache-mode off
|
|
|
|
In this mode (the default) the cache will read directly from the remote and write
|
|
directly to the remote without caching anything on disk.
|
|
|
|
This will mean some operations are not possible
|
|
|
|
* Files can't be opened for both read AND write
|
|
* Files opened for write can't be seeked
|
|
* Existing files opened for write must have O_TRUNC set
|
|
* Files open for read with O_TRUNC will be opened write only
|
|
* Files open for write only will behave as if O_TRUNC was supplied
|
|
* Open modes O_APPEND, O_TRUNC are ignored
|
|
* If an upload fails it can't be retried
|
|
|
|
### --vfs-cache-mode minimal
|
|
|
|
This is very similar to "off" except that files opened for read AND
|
|
write will be buffered to disk. This means that files opened for
|
|
write will be a lot more compatible, but uses the minimal disk space.
|
|
|
|
These operations are not possible
|
|
|
|
* Files opened for write only can't be seeked
|
|
* Existing files opened for write must have O_TRUNC set
|
|
* Files opened for write only will ignore O_APPEND, O_TRUNC
|
|
* If an upload fails it can't be retried
|
|
|
|
### --vfs-cache-mode writes
|
|
|
|
In this mode files opened for read only are still read directly from
|
|
the remote, write only and read/write files are buffered to disk
|
|
first.
|
|
|
|
This mode should support all normal file system operations.
|
|
|
|
If an upload fails it will be retried at exponentially increasing
|
|
intervals up to 1 minute.
|
|
|
|
### --vfs-cache-mode full
|
|
|
|
In this mode all reads and writes are buffered to and from disk. When
|
|
data is read from the remote this is buffered to disk as well.
|
|
|
|
In this mode the files in the cache will be sparse files and rclone
|
|
will keep track of which bits of the files it has downloaded.
|
|
|
|
So if an application only reads the starts of each file, then rclone
|
|
will only buffer the start of the file. These files will appear to be
|
|
their full size in the cache, but they will be sparse files with only
|
|
the data that has been downloaded present in them.
|
|
|
|
This mode should support all normal file system operations and is
|
|
otherwise identical to `--vfs-cache-mode` writes.
|
|
|
|
When reading a file rclone will read `--buffer-size` plus
|
|
`--vfs-read-ahead` bytes ahead. The `--buffer-size` is buffered in memory
|
|
whereas the `--vfs-read-ahead` is buffered on disk.
|
|
|
|
When using this mode it is recommended that `--buffer-size` is not set
|
|
too large and `--vfs-read-ahead` is set large if required.
|
|
|
|
**IMPORTANT** not all file systems support sparse files. In particular
|
|
FAT/exFAT do not. Rclone will perform very badly if the cache
|
|
directory is on a filesystem which doesn't support sparse files and it
|
|
will log an ERROR message if one is detected.
|
|
|
|
### Fingerprinting
|
|
|
|
Various parts of the VFS use fingerprinting to see if a local file
|
|
copy has changed relative to a remote file. Fingerprints are made
|
|
from:
|
|
|
|
- size
|
|
- modification time
|
|
- hash
|
|
|
|
where available on an object.
|
|
|
|
On some backends some of these attributes are slow to read (they take
|
|
an extra API call per object, or extra work per object).
|
|
|
|
For example `hash` is slow with the `local` and `sftp` backends as
|
|
they have to read the entire file and hash it, and `modtime` is slow
|
|
with the `s3`, `swift`, `ftp` and `qinqstor` backends because they
|
|
need to do an extra API call to fetch it.
|
|
|
|
If you use the `--vfs-fast-fingerprint` flag then rclone will not
|
|
include the slow operations in the fingerprint. This makes the
|
|
fingerprinting less accurate but much faster and will improve the
|
|
opening time of cached files.
|
|
|
|
If you are running a vfs cache over `local`, `s3` or `swift` backends
|
|
then using this flag is recommended.
|
|
|
|
Note that if you change the value of this flag, the fingerprints of
|
|
the files in the cache may be invalidated and the files will need to
|
|
be downloaded again.
|
|
|
|
## VFS Chunked Reading
|
|
|
|
When rclone reads files from a remote it reads them in chunks. This
|
|
means that rather than requesting the whole file rclone reads the
|
|
chunk specified. This can reduce the used download quota for some
|
|
remotes by requesting only chunks from the remote that are actually
|
|
read, at the cost of an increased number of requests.
|
|
|
|
These flags control the chunking:
|
|
|
|
--vfs-read-chunk-size SizeSuffix Read the source objects in chunks (default 128M)
|
|
--vfs-read-chunk-size-limit SizeSuffix Max chunk doubling size (default off)
|
|
|
|
Rclone will start reading a chunk of size `--vfs-read-chunk-size`,
|
|
and then double the size for each read. When `--vfs-read-chunk-size-limit` is
|
|
specified, and greater than `--vfs-read-chunk-size`, the chunk size for each
|
|
open file will get doubled only until the specified value is reached. If the
|
|
value is "off", which is the default, the limit is disabled and the chunk size
|
|
will grow indefinitely.
|
|
|
|
With `--vfs-read-chunk-size 100M` and `--vfs-read-chunk-size-limit 0`
|
|
the following parts will be downloaded: 0-100M, 100M-200M, 200M-300M, 300M-400M and so on.
|
|
When `--vfs-read-chunk-size-limit 500M` is specified, the result would be
|
|
0-100M, 100M-300M, 300M-700M, 700M-1200M, 1200M-1700M and so on.
|
|
|
|
Setting `--vfs-read-chunk-size` to `0` or "off" disables chunked reading.
|
|
|
|
## VFS Performance
|
|
|
|
These flags may be used to enable/disable features of the VFS for
|
|
performance or other reasons. See also the [chunked reading](#vfs-chunked-reading)
|
|
feature.
|
|
|
|
In particular S3 and Swift benefit hugely from the `--no-modtime` flag
|
|
(or use `--use-server-modtime` for a slightly different effect) as each
|
|
read of the modification time takes a transaction.
|
|
|
|
--no-checksum Don't compare checksums on up/download.
|
|
--no-modtime Don't read/write the modification time (can speed things up).
|
|
--no-seek Don't allow seeking in files.
|
|
--read-only Only allow read-only access.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes rclone is delivered reads or writes out of order. Rather
|
|
than seeking rclone will wait a short time for the in sequence read or
|
|
write to come in. These flags only come into effect when not using an
|
|
on disk cache file.
|
|
|
|
--vfs-read-wait duration Time to wait for in-sequence read before seeking (default 20ms)
|
|
--vfs-write-wait duration Time to wait for in-sequence write before giving error (default 1s)
|
|
|
|
When using VFS write caching (`--vfs-cache-mode` with value writes or full),
|
|
the global flag `--transfers` can be set to adjust the number of parallel uploads of
|
|
modified files from the cache (the related global flag `--checkers` has no effect on the VFS).
|
|
|
|
--transfers int Number of file transfers to run in parallel (default 4)
|
|
|
|
## VFS Case Sensitivity
|
|
|
|
Linux file systems are case-sensitive: two files can differ only
|
|
by case, and the exact case must be used when opening a file.
|
|
|
|
File systems in modern Windows are case-insensitive but case-preserving:
|
|
although existing files can be opened using any case, the exact case used
|
|
to create the file is preserved and available for programs to query.
|
|
It is not allowed for two files in the same directory to differ only by case.
|
|
|
|
Usually file systems on macOS are case-insensitive. It is possible to make macOS
|
|
file systems case-sensitive but that is not the default.
|
|
|
|
The `--vfs-case-insensitive` VFS flag controls how rclone handles these
|
|
two cases. If its value is "false", rclone passes file names to the remote
|
|
as-is. If the flag is "true" (or appears without a value on the
|
|
command line), rclone may perform a "fixup" as explained below.
|
|
|
|
The user may specify a file name to open/delete/rename/etc with a case
|
|
different than what is stored on the remote. If an argument refers
|
|
to an existing file with exactly the same name, then the case of the existing
|
|
file on the disk will be used. However, if a file name with exactly the same
|
|
name is not found but a name differing only by case exists, rclone will
|
|
transparently fixup the name. This fixup happens only when an existing file
|
|
is requested. Case sensitivity of file names created anew by rclone is
|
|
controlled by the underlying remote.
|
|
|
|
Note that case sensitivity of the operating system running rclone (the target)
|
|
may differ from case sensitivity of a file system presented by rclone (the source).
|
|
The flag controls whether "fixup" is performed to satisfy the target.
|
|
|
|
If the flag is not provided on the command line, then its default value depends
|
|
on the operating system where rclone runs: "true" on Windows and macOS, "false"
|
|
otherwise. If the flag is provided without a value, then it is "true".
|
|
|
|
The `--no-unicode-normalization` flag controls whether a similar "fixup" is
|
|
performed for filenames that differ but are [canonically
|
|
equivalent](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_equivalence) with respect to
|
|
unicode. Unicode normalization can be particularly helpful for users of macOS,
|
|
which prefers form NFD instead of the NFC used by most other platforms. It is
|
|
therefore highly recommended to keep the default of `false` on macOS, to avoid
|
|
encoding compatibility issues.
|
|
|
|
In the (probably unlikely) event that a directory has multiple duplicate
|
|
filenames after applying case and unicode normalization, the `--vfs-block-norm-dupes`
|
|
flag allows hiding these duplicates. This comes with a performance tradeoff, as
|
|
rclone will have to scan the entire directory for duplicates when listing a
|
|
directory. For this reason, it is recommended to leave this disabled if not
|
|
needed. However, macOS users may wish to consider using it, as otherwise, if a
|
|
remote directory contains both NFC and NFD versions of the same filename, an odd
|
|
situation will occur: both versions of the file will be visible in the mount,
|
|
and both will appear to be editable, however, editing either version will
|
|
actually result in only the NFD version getting edited under the hood. `--vfs-block-
|
|
norm-dupes` prevents this confusion by detecting this scenario, hiding the
|
|
duplicates, and logging an error, similar to how this is handled in `rclone
|
|
sync`.
|
|
|
|
## VFS Disk Options
|
|
|
|
This flag allows you to manually set the statistics about the filing system.
|
|
It can be useful when those statistics cannot be read correctly automatically.
|
|
|
|
--vfs-disk-space-total-size Manually set the total disk space size (example: 256G, default: -1)
|
|
|
|
## Alternate report of used bytes
|
|
|
|
Some backends, most notably S3, do not report the amount of bytes used.
|
|
If you need this information to be available when running `df` on the
|
|
filesystem, then pass the flag `--vfs-used-is-size` to rclone.
|
|
With this flag set, instead of relying on the backend to report this
|
|
information, rclone will scan the whole remote similar to `rclone size`
|
|
and compute the total used space itself.
|
|
|
|
_WARNING._ Contrary to `rclone size`, this flag ignores filters so that the
|
|
result is accurate. However, this is very inefficient and may cost lots of API
|
|
calls resulting in extra charges. Use it as a last resort and only with caching.
|
|
|
|
## Auth Proxy
|
|
|
|
If you supply the parameter `--auth-proxy /path/to/program` then
|
|
rclone will use that program to generate backends on the fly which
|
|
then are used to authenticate incoming requests. This uses a simple
|
|
JSON based protocol with input on STDIN and output on STDOUT.
|
|
|
|
**PLEASE NOTE:** `--auth-proxy` and `--authorized-keys` cannot be used
|
|
together, if `--auth-proxy` is set the authorized keys option will be
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
There is an example program
|
|
[bin/test_proxy.py](https://github.com/rclone/rclone/blob/master/bin/test_proxy.py)
|
|
in the rclone source code.
|
|
|
|
The program's job is to take a `user` and `pass` on the input and turn
|
|
those into the config for a backend on STDOUT in JSON format. This
|
|
config will have any default parameters for the backend added, but it
|
|
won't use configuration from environment variables or command line
|
|
options - it is the job of the proxy program to make a complete
|
|
config.
|
|
|
|
This config generated must have this extra parameter
|
|
- `_root` - root to use for the backend
|
|
|
|
And it may have this parameter
|
|
- `_obscure` - comma separated strings for parameters to obscure
|
|
|
|
If password authentication was used by the client, input to the proxy
|
|
process (on STDIN) would look similar to this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"user": "me",
|
|
"pass": "mypassword"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If public-key authentication was used by the client, input to the
|
|
proxy process (on STDIN) would look similar to this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"user": "me",
|
|
"public_key": "AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQDuwESFdAe14hVS6omeyX7edc...JQdf"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And as an example return this on STDOUT
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"type": "sftp",
|
|
"_root": "",
|
|
"_obscure": "pass",
|
|
"user": "me",
|
|
"pass": "mypassword",
|
|
"host": "sftp.example.com"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This would mean that an SFTP backend would be created on the fly for
|
|
the `user` and `pass`/`public_key` returned in the output to the host given. Note
|
|
that since `_obscure` is set to `pass`, rclone will obscure the `pass`
|
|
parameter before creating the backend (which is required for sftp
|
|
backends).
|
|
|
|
The program can manipulate the supplied `user` in any way, for example
|
|
to make proxy to many different sftp backends, you could make the
|
|
`user` be `user@example.com` and then set the `host` to `example.com`
|
|
in the output and the user to `user`. For security you'd probably want
|
|
to restrict the `host` to a limited list.
|
|
|
|
Note that an internal cache is keyed on `user` so only use that for
|
|
configuration, don't use `pass` or `public_key`. This also means that if a user's
|
|
password or public-key is changed the cache will need to expire (which takes 5 mins)
|
|
before it takes effect.
|
|
|
|
This can be used to build general purpose proxies to any kind of
|
|
backend that rclone supports.
