What is Rclone?

Rclone is a command line program used to backup and sync files and directories to cloud storage platforms. Rclone is certified for use with Filebase.

Prerequisites:

1. Edit your rclone.conf file to reflect the following configuration:

[filebase]
type = s3
provider = Other
env_auth = false
access_key_id = access_key_goes_here
secret_access_key = secret_access_key_goes_here
region = us-east-1
endpoint = https://s3.filebase.com

2. To back files up to Filebase, you can use the following command, where filebase-bucket is your bucket name and README.txt is the file you want to backup:

./rclone --config rclone.conf copy README.txt filebase:filebase-bucket -v
