|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
[Tardigrade](https://tardigrade.io) is an encrypted, secure, and
|
|
cost-effective object storage service that enables you to store, back up, and
|
|
archive large amounts of data in a decentralized manner.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
To make a new Tardigrade configuration you need one of the following:
|
|
* Access Grant that someone else shared with you.
|
|
* [API Key](https://documentation.tardigrade.io/getting-started/uploading-your-first-object/create-an-api-key)
|
|
of a Tardigrade project you are a member of.
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|

## Usage
|
|
|
|
Paths are specified as `remote:bucket` (or `remote:` for the `lsf`
|
|
command.) You may put subdirectories in too, e.g. `remote:bucket/path/to/dir`.
|
|
|
|
Once configured you can then use `rclone` like this.
|
|
|
|
### Create a new bucket
|
|
|
|
Use the `mkdir` command to create new bucket, e.g. `bucket`.
|
|
|
|
rclone mkdir remote:bucket
|
|
|
|
### List all buckets
|
|
|
|
Use the `lsf` command to list all buckets.
|
|
|
|
rclone lsf remote:
|
|
|
|
Note the colon (`:`) character at the end of the command line.
|
|
|
|
### Delete a bucket
|
|
|
|
Use the `rmdir` command to delete an empty bucket.
|
|
|
|
rclone rmdir remote:bucket
|
|
|
|
Use the `purge` command to delete a non-empty bucket with all its content.
|
|
|
|
rclone purge remote:bucket
|
|
|
|
### Upload objects
|
|
|
|
Use the `copy` command to upload an object.
|
|
|
|
rclone copy --progress /home/local/directory/file.ext remote:bucket/path/to/dir/
|
|
|
|
The `--progress` flag is for displaying progress information.
|
|
Remove it if you don't need this information.
|
|
|
|
Use a folder in the local path to upload all its objects.
|
|
|
|
rclone copy --progress /home/local/directory/ remote:bucket/path/to/dir/
|
|
|
|
Only modified files will be copied.
|
|
|
|
### List objects
|
|
|
|
Use the `ls` command to list recursively all objects in a bucket.
|
|
|
|
rclone ls remote:bucket
|
|
|
|
Add the folder to the remote path to list recursively all objects in this folder.
|
|
|
|
rclone ls remote:bucket/path/to/dir/
|
|
|
|
Use the `lsf` command to list non-recursively all objects in a bucket or a folder.
|
|
|
|
rclone lsf remote:bucket/path/to/dir/
|
|
|
|
### Download objects
|
|
|
|
Use the `copy` command to download an object.
|
|
|
|
rclone copy --progress remote:bucket/path/to/dir/file.ext /home/local/directory/
|
|
|
|
The `--progress` flag is for displaying progress information.
|
|
Remove it if you don't need this information.
|
|
|
|
Use a folder in the remote path to download all its objects.
|
|
|
|
rclone copy --progress remote:bucket/path/to/dir/ /home/local/directory/
|
|
|
|
### Delete objects
|
|
|
|
Use the `deletefile` command to delete a single object.
|
|
|
|
rclone deletefile remote:bucket/path/to/dir/file.ext
|
|
|
|
Use the `delete` command to delete all object in a folder.
|
|
|
|
rclone delete remote:bucket/path/to/dir/
|
|
|
|
### Print the total size of objects
|
|
|
|
Use the `size` command to print the total size of objects in a bucket or a folder.
|
|
|
|
rclone size remote:bucket/path/to/dir/
|
|
|
|
### Sync two Locations
|
|
|
|
Use the `sync` command to sync the source to the destination,
|
|
changing the destination only, deleting any excess files.
|
|
|
|
rclone sync -i --progress /home/local/directory/ remote:bucket/path/to/dir/
|
|
|
|
The `--progress` flag is for displaying progress information.
|
|
Remove it if you don't need this information.
|
|
|
|
Since this can cause data loss, test first with the `--dry-run` flag
|
|
to see exactly what would be copied and deleted.
|
|
|
|
The sync can be done also from Tardigrade to the local file system.
|
|
|
|
rclone sync -i --progress remote:bucket/path/to/dir/ /home/local/directory/
|
|
|
|
Or between two Tardigrade buckets.
|
|
|
|
rclone sync -i --progress remote-us:bucket/path/to/dir/ remote-europe:bucket/path/to/dir/
|
|
|
|
Or even between another cloud storage and Tardigrade.
|
|
|
|
rclone sync -i --progress s3:bucket/path/to/dir/ tardigrade:bucket/path/to/dir/
|
|

### Limitations
|
|
|
|
`rclone about` is not supported by the rclone Tardigrade backend. Backends without
|
|
this capability cannot determine free space for an rclone mount or
|
|
use policy `mfs` (most free space) as a member of an rclone union
|
|
remote.
|
|
|
|
See [List of backends that do not support rclone about](https://rclone.org/overview/#optional-features)
|
|
See [rclone about](https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_about/)
|
|
|
|
### Known issues
|
|
|
|
If you get errors like `too many open files` this usually happens when the default `ulimit` for system max open files is exceeded. Native Storj protocol opens a large number of TCP connections (each of which is counted as an open file). For a single upload stream you can expect 110 TCP connections to be opened. For a single download stream you can expect 35. This batch of connections will be opened for every 64 MiB segment and you should also expect TCP connections to be reused. If you do many transfers you eventually open a connection to most storage nodes (thousands of nodes).
|
|
|
|
To fix these, please raise your system limits. You can do this issuing a `ulimit -n 65536` just before you run rclone, inside a bash script or inside the `$USER/.bashrc` file. If you need to change limits system-wide, this usually takes place at `/etc/sysctl.conf` and/or `/etc/security/limits.conf` on Linux, but please refer to your operating system manual.
