This Bash script provides a terminal overview of multiple rclone remotes.
It queries each remote using rclone about --json, extracts usage information, and prints a sortable table with:

  • Used (GB) (largest usage at the top)
  • Trashed (GB)
  • Free (GB)
  • Total (GB)
  • Usage % (color-coded: green <60%, yellow 60–85%, red >85%)
  • ASCII bar chart for quick visual usage

:information_source: The script calculates Bytes / 1024³ and labels the result as "GB" to match typical web UI displays (many providers display GiB but label them GB).

Features

  • Displays usage of multiple remotes in one table
  • Sorted by largest usage first
  • Color-coded usage percentage
  • ASCII bar usage visualization
  • Supports custom assumed total capacity (--cap)
  • Works with encrypted rclone.conf via RCLONE_CONFIG_PASS

Requirements

  • rclone (>= v1.53)
  • jq for JSON parsing
  • A configured rclone.conf (can be encrypted)

Usage

# Clone this repo and make the script executable
chmod +x rclone-remotes-overview.sh

# Run for one or more remotes
./rclone-remotes-overview.sh remote1: remote2: remote3:

# Use a custom total capacity (default = 25600 GB)
./rclone-remotes-overview.sh --cap 51200 bigbox:

# Disable colored output
./rclone-remotes-overview.sh --no-color remote:
