After configuring Rclone GUI successfully, how do I automate a copy process?

[arretx]

After installing the Nacho-Rclone-Native-GUI docker app, I was able to successfully connect to my S3 bucket as well as mount my /mnt/user/Media share to the container's /data path.

 

Now I can easily copy to the S3 bucket...but what I was hoping to accomplish was the ability to automatically sync the files daily or every 12 hours from the /data path to the S3 bucket.

 

Do I need to abandon the GUI and just use the command line and then install that command as a cron job IN the rclone container, or is there another way I should be doing this?

 

Also, will Rclone allow me to simply add new files to already existing files that have been transferred and allow me to prevent deletion of files that are deleted locally on the server?  That's the whole point actually...to backup things that are here in case they are inadvertently removed.

I haven't tried this, but it might work for you "Dynamix schedules" plugin. 

Schedules

is a front-end utility for the built-in hourly, daily, weekly and monthly schedules. It allows the user to alter the schedule execution times using the GUI. See Settings -> Scheduler -> Fixed Schedules.
