Configure an rclone remote — rclone_config

Creates or updates a named remote in the rclone config file. This is the primary way to register cloud storage credentials with rclone.

Usage

rclone_config_create(name, type, ...)

Arguments

name: Name for the remote (used as the prefix in paths, e.g. "myremote:bucket/key").
type: Remote type, e.g. "s3", "gcs", "azureblob", "drive". Run rclone("help backends") to see all supported types.
...: Named parameters passed to the remote configuration. For S3 remotes this typically includes provider, access_key_id, secret_access_key, and optionally endpoint (for non-AWS S3).

Value

Invisibly, the result of the rclone command.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# AWS S3
rclone_config_create("aws", type = "s3",
  provider = "AWS",
  access_key_id = Sys.getenv("AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"),
  secret_access_key = Sys.getenv("AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"),
  region = "us-east-1"
)

# MinIO / S3-compatible
rclone_config_create("minio", type = "s3",
  provider = "Minio",
  access_key_id = Sys.getenv("MINIO_ACCESS_KEY"),
  secret_access_key = Sys.getenv("MINIO_SECRET_KEY"),
  endpoint = "https://minio.example.com"
)
} # }
