Adding flags to API command

Help and Support
1

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I'm trying to convert rclone commands to rclone API (rclone rc) commands

What is your rclone version (output from rclone version)

rclone v1.52.3

Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)

Linux 64bit

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

GDrive

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

rclone rc mount/mount fs=gdrive: mountpoint:/local/mountpoint --allow-other --log-level=INFO

A log from the command with the -vv flag

Fatal error: unknown flag: --allow-other

You'll need the latest beta for this then you can pass the flags as here:

Rclone's cloud storage systems as a file system with FUSE.

If no mountType is provided, the priority is given as follows: 1. mount 2.cmount 3.mount2

This takes the following parameters

  • fs - a remote path to be mounted (required)
  • mountPoint: valid path on the local machine (required)
  • mountType: One of the values (mount, cmount, mount2) specifies the mount implementation to use
  • mountOpt: a JSON object with Mount options in.
  • vfsOpt: a JSON object with VFS options in.

Eg

rclone rc mount/mount fs=mydrive: mountPoint=/home/<user>/mountPoint
rclone rc mount/mount fs=mydrive: mountPoint=/home/<user>/mountPoint mountType=mount
rclone rc mount/mount fs=TestDrive: mountPoint=/mnt/tmp vfsOpt='{"CacheMode": 2}' mountOpt='{"AllowOther": true}'

The vfsOpt are as described in options/get and can be seen in the the
"vfs" section when running and the mountOpt can be seen in the "mount" section.

rclone rc options/get
