|

---------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Paths are specified as `remote:path`
|
||||
|
||||
Dropbox paths may be as deep as required, eg
|
||||
`remote:directory/subdirectory`.
|
||||
|
||||
The initial setup for dropbox involves getting a token from Dropbox
|
||||
which you need to do in your browser. `rclone config` walks you
|
||||
through it.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is an example of how to make a remote called `remote`. First run:
|
||||
|
||||
rclone config
|
||||
|
||||
This will guide you through an interactive setup process:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
n) New remote
|
||||
d) Delete remote
|
||||
q) Quit config
|
||||
e/n/d/q> n
|
||||
name> remote
|
||||
What type of source is it?
|
||||
Choose a number from below
|
||||
1) swift
|
||||
2) s3
|
||||
3) local
|
||||
4) google cloud storage
|
||||
5) dropbox
|
||||
6) drive
|
||||
type> 5
|
||||
Dropbox App Key - leave blank to use rclone's.
|
||||
app_key>
|
||||
Dropbox App Secret - leave blank to use rclone's.
|
||||
app_secret>
|
||||
Remote config
|
||||
Please visit:
|
||||
https://www.dropbox.com/1/oauth2/authorize?client_id=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&response_type=code
|
||||
Enter the code: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX_XXXXXXXXXX
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
[remote]
|
||||
app_key =
|
||||
app_secret =
|
||||
token = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX_XXXX_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
y) Yes this is OK
|
||||
e) Edit this remote
|
||||
d) Delete this remote
|
||||
y/e/d> y
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can then use it like this,
|
||||
|
||||
List directories in top level of your dropbox
|
||||
|
||||
rclone lsd remote:
|
||||
|
||||
List all the files in your dropbox
|
||||
|
||||
rclone ls remote:
|
||||
|
||||
To copy a local directory to a dropbox directory called backup
|
||||
|
||||
rclone copy /home/source remote:backup
|
||||
|
||||
Modified time
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
Md5sums and timestamps in RFC3339 format accurate to 1ns are stored in
|
||||
a Dropbox datastore called "rclone". Dropbox datastores are limited
|
||||
to 100,000 rows so this is the maximum number of files rclone can
|
||||
manage on Dropbox.
