# rclone lsf
List directories and objects in remote:path formatted for parsing.
## Synopsis
List the contents of the source path (directories and objects) to
standard output in a form which is easy to parse by scripts. By
default this will just be the names of the objects and directories,
one per line. The directories will have a / suffix.
Eg
$ rclone lsf swift:bucket
bevajer5jef
canole
diwogej7
ferejej3gux/
fubuwic
Use the `--format` option to control what gets listed. By default this
is just the path, but you can use these parameters to control the
output:
p - path
s - size
t - modification time
h - hash
i - ID of object
o - Original ID of underlying object
m - MimeType of object if known
e - encrypted name
T - tier of storage if known, e.g. "Hot" or "Cool"
M - Metadata of object in JSON blob format, eg {"key":"value"}
So if you wanted the path, size and modification time, you would use
`--format "pst"`, or maybe `--format "tsp"` to put the path last.
Eg
$ rclone lsf --format "tsp" swift:bucket

If you specify "h" in the format you will get the MD5 hash by default,
use the `--hash` flag to change which hash you want. Note that this
can be returned as an empty string if it isn't available on the object
(and for directories), "ERROR" if there was an error reading it from
the object and "UNSUPPORTED" if that object does not support that hash
type.
For example, to emulate the md5sum command you can use
rclone lsf -R --hash MD5 --format hp --separator " " --files-only .
Eg
$ rclone lsf -R --hash MD5 --format hp --separator " " --files-only swift:bucket

(Though "rclone md5sum ." is an easier way of typing this.)
By default the separator is ";" this can be changed with the
`--separator` flag. Note that separators aren't escaped in the path so
putting it last is a good strategy.
Eg
$ rclone lsf --separator "," --format "tshp" swift:bucket

You can output in CSV standard format. This will escape things in "
if they contain ,
Eg
$ rclone lsf --csv --files-only --format ps remote:path
test.log,22355
test.sh,449
"this file contains a comma, in the file name.txt",6
Note that the `--absolute` parameter is useful for making lists of files
to pass to an rclone copy with the `--files-from-raw` flag.
For example, to find all the files modified within one day and copy
those only (without traversing the whole directory structure):
rclone lsf --absolute --files-only --max-age 1d /path/to/local > new_files
rclone copy --files-from-raw new_files /path/to/local remote:path
The default time format is `'2006-01-02 15:04:05'`.
[Other formats](https://pkg.go.dev/time#pkg-constants) can be specified with the `--time-format` flag.
Examples:
rclone lsf remote:path --format pt --time-format 'Jan 2, 2006 at 3:04pm (MST)'
rclone lsf remote:path --format pt --time-format '2006-01-02 15:04:05.000000000'
rclone lsf remote:path --format pt --time-format '2006-01-02T15:04:05.999999999Z07:00'
rclone lsf remote:path --format pt --time-format RFC3339
rclone lsf remote:path --format pt --time-format DateOnly
rclone lsf remote:path --format pt --time-format max
`--time-format max` will automatically truncate '`2006-01-02 15:04:05.000000000`'
to the maximum precision supported by the remote.
Any of the filtering options can be applied to this command.
There are several related list commands
* `ls` to list size and path of objects only
* `lsl` to list modification time, size and path of objects only
* `lsd` to list directories only
* `lsf` to list objects and directories in easy to parse format
* `lsjson` to list objects and directories in JSON format
`ls`,`lsl`,`lsd` are designed to be human-readable.
`lsf` is designed to be human and machine-readable.
`lsjson` is designed to be machine-readable.
Note that `ls` and `lsl` recurse by default - use `--max-depth 1` to stop the recursion.
The other list commands `lsd`,`lsf`,`lsjson` do not recurse by default - use `-R` to make them recurse.
Listing a nonexistent directory will produce an error except for
remotes which can't have empty directories (e.g. s3, swift, or gcs -
the bucket-based remotes).
