I am using this Rclone manger available at rclone-manager - GNOME Shell Extensions for Gnome desktop that creates a nice way to bi-direction sync folders.
I have added "/Meet Recordings/**" from it "Files to be ignored" in the intention that this configuration is the --exclude files filter but didn't worked.
Someone already used this extension or can help me?
hi,
filters are very confusing and there is a lot of documeantion to go thru
https://rclone.org/filtering/#exclude-exclude-files-matching-pattern
"For other operating systems single quotes are required"
so might try using single quote, not double quote
--exclude='/Meet Recordings/**'
--- the best way to test filters is using rclone ls
somethine like rclone ls remote: --exclude='/Meet Recordings/**' -vv
Rclone and its filters are working fine. I just having some troubles to configure the Gnome extension.
can you post a screen snippet of the filter you are using?
what is the output of rclone version
rclone v1.60.0
- os/version: ubuntu 20.04 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 5.15.0-52-generic (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.19.2
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: none
The configuration screen of rclone-manager (Gnome Extension) v7
for Filenames to be ignored, is that for rclone or inotify?
might need to add --exclude to the actual rclone command itself.

"Comma separed filenames to be ignored by inotify"
if the extension is passing the ignore info to rclone, the rclone debug log would show that.
Yes.
I didn't check the extension source code to see if it break by , each argument. I just added ,/Bak/**,/Classroom/** after the argument that it was already using.
ok, at this point, do you need any additional help?
