Will a rclone module let me backup to a cloud?

Hi,

Will Rclone let me choose a cloud storage for syncing my backups to from my local node? The current backup storage providers do not fit my bill.

TIA

Which cloud storage provider do you want to use?

I use the “S3 compatible provider” with Contabo and it works well:

Google Drive, Proton Drive, iCloud, NextCloud. But that is just me, others may have other wishes as supported by rclone.

Wow, rclone really supports a lot of cloud storage systems and it’s already there, see GitHub

[samba1@node state]$ rclone-wrapper 
Usage:
   rclone-wrapper {REPOSITORY_ID|BACKUP_ID} [rclone args...]

The string "REMOTE_PATH" is replaced with the value defined by REPOSITORY_ID
e.g.: rclone-wrapper 1 ls REMOTE_PATH/dokuwiki

Ok…

So when can we expect the full GUI where we can create a zillion rclone jobs of any data of any node in the cluster to any external source? Ofcourse fully tested, fool-proof and certified.

No worries, by the end of this week would be fine. No pressure.
