rclone config encryption set
Set or change the config file encryption password
Synopsis
This command sets or changes the config file encryption password.
If there was no config password set then it sets a new one, otherwise it changes the existing config password.
Note that if you are changing an encryption password using
--password-command
then this will be called once to decrypt the
config using the old password and then again to read the new
password to re-encrypt the config.
When --password-command
is called to change the password then the
environment variable RCLONE_PASSWORD_CHANGE=1
will be set. So if
changing passwords programatically you can use the environment
variable to distinguish which password you must supply.
Alternatively you can remove the password first (with rclone config encryption remove
), then set it again with this command which may be
easier if you don't mind the unecrypted config file being on the disk
briefly.
