Does not recurse by default. Use the -R flag to recurse. This command lists the total size of the directory (if known, -1 if not), the modification time (if known, the current time if not), the number of objects in the directory (if known, -1 if not) and the name of the directory, Eg $ rclone lsd swift: 494000 2018-04-26 08:43:20 10000 10000files 65 2018-04-26 08:43:20 1 1File Or $ rclone lsd drive:test -1 2016-10-17 17:41:53 -1 1000files -1 2017-01-03 14:40:54 -1 2500files -1 2017-07-08 14:39:28 -1 4000files If you just want the directory names use "rclone lsf --dirs-only". Any of the filtering options can be applied to this command. There are several related list commands * `ls` to list size and path of objects only * `lsl` to list modification time, size and path of objects only * `lsd` to list directories only * `lsf` to list objects and directories in easy to parse format * `lsjson` to list objects and directories in JSON format `ls`,`lsl`,`lsd` are designed to be human readable. `lsf` is designed to be human and machine readable. `lsjson` is designed to be machine readable. Note that `ls` and `lsl` recurse by default - use "--max-depth 1" to stop the recursion. The other list commands `lsd`,`lsf`,`lsjson` do not recurse by default - use "-R" to make them recurse. Listing a non existent directory will produce an error except for remotes which can't have empty directories (eg s3, swift, gcs, etc - the bucket based remotes). ``` rclone lsd remote:path [flags] ``` ### Options ``` -h, --help help for lsd -R, --recursive Recurse into the listing. ``` ### SEE ALSO * [rclone](/commands/rclone/) - Show help for rclone commands, flags and backends. ###### Auto generated by spf13/cobra on 10-May-2019
