python-rclone 0.0.2

Rclone wrapper for python

python-rclone

A Python wrapper for rclone.

rclone must be already installed and discoverable in $PATH.

Status

Work in progress. Experimental.

Usage

import rclone

cfg = """[local]
type = local
nounc = true"""
result = rclone.with_config(cfg).listremotes()

print(result.get('out'))
# b'local:\n'
print(result.get('code'))
# 0
print(result.get('error'))

Implemented commands:

• copy Copy files from source to dest, skipping already copied
• sync Make source and dest identical, modifying destination only.
• listremotes List all the remotes in the config file.
• ls List the objects in the path with size and path.
• lsjson List directories and objects in the path in JSON format.
• delete Remove the contents of path.

Even if not all rclone commands have been exposed, it's possible to invoke any command using run_cmd method directly, as shown in the example bellow:

import rclone

cfg = """[local]
type = local
nounc = true"""
result = rclone.with_config(cfg).run_cmd(command="lsd", extra_args=["local:/tmp", "-v", "--dry-run"])

Logging and Debugging

To see more info about which commands are executed, or what other messages they print, you can enable logging as the example bellow shows:

import logging
logging.basicConfig(
    level=logging.DEBUG,
    format="%(asctime)s %(name)s [%(levelname)s]: %(message)s")

import rclone

cfg = """[local]
type = local
nounc = true"""
result = rclone.with_config(cfg).listremotes()
