Very convenient Rclone bulk backup wrapper

Project description

☁️ easyclone

easyclone is a lightweight, configurable CLI tool that wraps rclone to behave more like Google's Backup and Sync app.

You define what to back up, where to back it up, and EasyClone handles the syncs and copies — clean, fast, and reliable.

🚀 Features

  • 🔁 Sync & Copy support per-path
  • 📁 Backup multiple paths at once
  • 🧠 Human-friendly TOML config
  • 🛠️ IPC-ready architecture for future GUI or monitoring tools
  • 🔊 Optional verbose logging

🛠️ Requirements

  • Python 3.13+
  • rclone installed and accessible in your $PATH
  • pydantic>=2.11.5
  • toml>=0.10.2
  • typer>=0.16.0

🧪 Example Usage

easyclone start-backup

It will:

  • Sync the paths in sync_paths
  • Copy the paths in copy_paths
  • Use the remote_name and root_dir to target your cloud storage

🙋‍♀️ Contributing

PRs welcome. Bug reports even more welcome.

❓ FAQ

Why does it create the folders first?

Because services like Google Drive support multiple folders with the same name in the same directory. So when you try to concurrently backup paths from the same directory, it will create the parent directory more than once, and we don't want that.

📄 License

GPLv3 — do whatever you want, just don't blame me if you sync your / folder to the cloud :)
