This is a very lightweight Docker image that runs rclone as a cronjob (inspired from https://github.com/openbridge/ob_bulkstash).
It makes backuping tasks or other syncing tasks very easy. Rclone being entierly configurable with environment variables (https://rclone.org/docs/#environment-variables), it should be pretty flexible.
See on Docker hub : https://hub.docker.com/r/olivierdalang/rclone-cron
docker run \
-v ./backups/:/backups/ \
-e "CRON_SCHEDULE=0 0 * * *" \
-e "COMMAND=rclone copy /backups/ MYREMOTE:/path/where/to/backup/" \
-e "RCLONE_CONFIG_MYREMOTE_TYPE=s3" \
-e "RCLONE_CONFIG_MYREMOTE_ACCESS_KEY_ID=XXX" \
-e "RCLONE_CONFIG_MYREMOTE_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YYY" \

COMMAND is executed once on container startup (to test the config), and if
it succeeded, cron will start in foreground.
See rclone's documentation for the command syntax and the RCLONE_CONFIG_*
configuration. See cron documentation for CRON_SCHEDULE.
You could also define two remotes to do a remote-to-remote sync/copy.
Example docker-compose.yml to sync a docker volume to Dropbox.
version: '3.4'
services:
... your other services here
backup:
image: olivierdalang/rclone-cron:latest
environment:
- CRON_SCHEDULE=0 * * * *
- COMMAND=rclone sync -v /your_data_volume MYDROPBOX:some_path_here
- RCLONE_CONFIG_MYDROPBOX_TYPE=dropbox
- RCLONE_CONFIG_MYDROPBOX_CLIENT_ID=xxx
- RCLONE_CONFIG_MYDROPBOX_CLIENT_SECRET=yyy
- RCLONE_CONFIG_MYDROPBOX_TOKEN={"access_token":"zzz","token_type":"bearer","expiry":"0001-01-01T00:00:00Z"}
volumes:
- ./your_data_volume:/your_data_volume
You can use the same image to do a one-shot sync, in this example from Dropbox to S3
Create the environement variables nano temp-env :
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYDROPBOX_TYPE=dropbox
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYDROPBOX_CLIENT_ID=xxx
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYDROPBOX_CLIENT_SECRET=yyy
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYDROPBOX_TOKEN={"access_token":"zzz-LwUL7bnOZm3_Kl9MEGzXh7f7SL_F","token_type":"bearer","expiry":"0001-01-01T00:00:00Z"}
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYS3_TYPE=s3
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYS3_ENDPOINT=https://aaa
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYS3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=bbb
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYS3_REGION=ccc
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYS3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=ddd
RCLONE_CONFIG_MYS3_ACL=public-read
Run the container in detched mode :
docker run --entrypoint "/bin/sh" --env-file temp -d olivierdalang/rclone-cron -c 'rclone -v sync MYDROPBOX:path/in/your/dropbox MYS3:your_bucket'
