[rclone rcd --rc-web-gui] Entire folders can be saved or exported via the gui interface.

I use rclone with command-line encryption and it works perfectly.

On the other hand, I'm trying to show friends who aren't used to the command line that they can use rclone too, via a launcher on gnome that I've made for them:

cat /usr/share/applications/rclone.desktop

root@debian:~# rclone --version
rclone v1.66.0

  • os/version: debian 12.5 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 6.1.0-21-amd64 (x86_64)
  • os/type: linux
  • os/arch: amd64
  • go/version: go1.22.1
  • go/linking: static
  • go/tags: none

Everything works perfectly and they're very happy with it.

But the web interface currently only allows you to save or restore a file by a file.

If we could save a folder or restore a folder, the gui interface would be much more pleasant for users unfamiliar with the command line.

Because, quite frankly, the gui interface is very pleasant and easy to use, it's really a missing feature for people to regain control of their storage clouds :slight_smile:

Good news that it looks like somebody decided to work on this:)

So maybe new features can be added in time too.

Watch the space or if you have right skills you can also always help.
