About rclone
Rclone is a command line tool to manage files on cloud storage. It is a feature rich alternative to cloud vendor's web storage interfaces. Over 40 cloud storage products are supported by rclone including S3 object stores, business & consumer file storage services, as well as standard transfer protocols.
Rclone is a powerful tool the cloud storage equivalent to the
unix commands rsync, cp, mv, mount, ls, ncdu, tree, rm, and
cat. Rclone's familiar syntax includes shell pipeline support, and
--dry-run
protection. It can be used at the command line, in scripts
or via its API.
Users have called it "The Swiss army knife of cloud storage" and "Technology indistinguishable from magic".
Rclone really looks after your data. It preserves timestamps and verifies your data at all times. Transfers over limited bandwidth; intermittent connections, or subject to quota can be restarted, from the last good file transferred. You can check the integrity of your files. Where possible, rclone employs server side transfers to minimise local bandwidth use and can transfer from one provider to another without using your local disk.
Virtual backends can wrap local and cloud file systems to apply encryption, caching, chunking and joining.
Rclone can mount any local, cloud or virtual filesystem so it will appear as a local disk on your Windows, macOS, linux or FreeBSD computer. Rclone can also serve these over SFTP, HTTP, WebDAV, FTP and DLNA.
Rclone is mature, open source software originally inspired by rsync. It is written in Go and is energetically maintained, and supported by a welcoming community with a wide experience of varied use cases. Official repos such as Ubuntu, Debian, Brew and Chocolatey include rclone. For the latest version downloading from rclone.org is recommended.
Rclone is widely used on Linux, Windows and Mac. Third party developers have built innovative backup, restore, GUI and business process solutions using the rclone command line or API.
Let rclone do the heavy lifting of communicating with cloud storage so you can concentrate on your problems.
What can rclone do for you
Rclone can help you:
- Backup (and encrypt) files to cloud storage
- Restore (and decrypt) files from cloud storage
- Mirror cloud data to other cloud services or locally
- Migrate data to cloud, or between cloud storage vendors
- Mount multiple, encrypted, cached or diverse cloud storage as a disk
- Analyse and account for data held on cloud storage using lsf, ljson, size, ncdu
- Union file systems together to present multiple local and/or cloud file systems as one
Features
- Transfers
- MD5, SHA1 hashes are checked at all times for file integrity
- Timestamps are preserved on files
- Operations can be restarted at any time
- Can be to and from network, eg two different cloud providers
- Can use multi-threaded downloads to local disk
- Copy new or changed files to cloud storage
- Sync (one way) to make a directory identical
- Move files to cloud storage deleting the local after verification

Supported providers
Here is a list of providers that rclone supports. This isn't an exhaustive list as there are other providers which support a standard protocol (such as WebDav or S3) which work out of the box.
