• List files in a directory including properties of the files.
• List available remotes.
• Generate hashes from files or validate them with their hashsum.
• Create new remotes
• Check available remotes
• Create and manage public links.
• Check the currently installed rclone versions and if updates are available.

Installation 💾

rclone_python can be installed using pip

pip install rclone-python

or by cloning this repository and running from within the root of the project

pip install .

How to use 💡

All functionally of this wrapper is accessible through rclone. The following example checks if rclone is installed.

from rclone_python import rclone

print(rclone.is_installed())

True

Create new remote

Create a new rclone remote connection with rclone's default client-id and client-secret.

from rclone_python import rclone
from rclone_python.remote_types import RemoteTypes

rclone.create_remote('onedrive', RemoteTypes.onedrive)

Additionally, client-id and client-secret can be used with many cloud providers.

from rclone_python import rclone
from rclone_python.remote_types import RemoteTypes

rclone.create_remote('onedrive', RemoteTypes.onedrive, client_id='YOUR_CLIENT_ID', client_secret='YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET')

Copy

from rclone_python import rclone

# copy all file in the test_dir on OneDrive to the local data folder.
rclone.copy('onedrive:data', 'data', ignore_existing=True, args=['--create-empty-src-dirs'])

Delete

Delete a file or a directory. When deleting a directory, only the files in the directory (and all it's subdirectories) are deleted, but the folders remain.

from rclone_python import rclone

# delete a specific file on onedrive
rclone.delete('onedrive:data/video1.mp4')

Prune

from rclone_python import rclone

# remove the entire test_dir folder (and all files contained in it and it's subdirectories) on onedrive
rclone.purge('onedrive:test_dir')

Get Hash

from rclone_python import rclone
from rclone_python.hash_types import HashTypes

print(rclone.hash(HashTypes.sha1, "box:data")

{'video1.webm': '3ef08d895f25e8b7d84d3a1ac58f8f302e33058b', 'video3.webm': '3ef08d895f25e8b7d84d3a1ac58f8f302e33058b', 'video2.webm': '3ef08d895f25e8b7d84d3a1ac58f8f302e33058b'}

Custom Progressbar

You can use your own rich progressbar with all transfer operations. This allows you to customize the columns to be displayed. A list of all rich-progress columns can be found here.

from rclone_python import rclone

from rich.progress import (
    Progress,
    TextColumn,
    BarColumn,
    TaskProgressColumn,
    TransferSpeedColumn,
)

pbar = Progress(
    TextColumn("[progress.description]{task.description}"),
    BarColumn(),
    TaskProgressColumn(),
    TransferSpeedColumn(),
)
rclone.copy("data", "box:rclone_test/data1", pbar=pbar)

Debug

For debugging progress related functionality, set the DEBUG flag to true:

rclone.DEBUG = True

This will make the wrapper print the raw rclone progress.
