-----------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The memory backend is an in RAM backend. It does not persist its
|
||
|
|
data - use the local backend for that.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The memory backend behaves like a bucket based remote (eg like
|
||
|
|
s3). Because it has no parameters you can just use it with the
|
||
|
|
`:memory:` remote name.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can configure it as a remote like this with `rclone config` too if
|
||
|
|
you want to:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
No remotes found - make a new one
|
||
|
|
n) New remote
|
||
|
|
s) Set configuration password
|
||
|
|
q) Quit config
|
||
|
|
n/s/q> n
|
||
|
|
name> remote
|
||
|
|
Type of storage to configure.
|
||
|
|
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
|
||
|
|
Choose a number from below, or type in your own value
|
||
|
|

|

y) Yes this is OK (default)
|
||
|
|
e) Edit this remote
|
||
|
|
d) Delete this remote

y/e/d> y

```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Because the memory backend isn't persistent it is most useful for
|
||
|
|
testing or with an rclone server or rclone mount, eg
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
rclone mount :memory: /mnt/tmp
|
||
|
|
rclone serve webdav :memory:
|
||
|
|
rclone serve sftp :memory:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Modified time and hashes ###
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The memory backend supports MD5 hashes and modification times accurate to 1 nS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Restricted filename characters
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The memory backend replaces the [default restricted characters
|
||
|
|
set](/overview/#restricted-characters).
