Guide: How To Use Rclone To Mount Cloud Drives And Play Files

Well, after a few initial difficulties a couple of years ago, it has been running without any problems so far.

• gsuite:/crypt/media works
• /cache leads to /mnt/cache and also works
• the "&" is included, it just was not copied

I added it because of a failure running the script. After a reboot I seems to work without it.

 

What do you mean with "anything"?

The file is encrypted with the password in the crypt config and the naming can be anything, nothing to hide behind my 'Merval Endgames 37 8K Premium 20.4 THEx.mp3.bin'.

 

1. That was obviously the problem. If it runs in the background, there is also a connection in the appropriate folder.
2. With the background process as predefined, it can simply be found at /mnt/user/mount_rclone/gcrypt/ .
3. With the path from 2. the following also works (fusermount -uz /mnt/user/mount_rclone/gcrypt && fusermount -uz /mnt/user/mount_mergerfs/gcrypt/) and the array can be stopped.

Thank you very much, I hope that is it for now with my problems.

Glad it works now!

 

Regarding the encryption, I meant you don't do file or directory name encryption. And you made clear that's a deliberate choice. I was just surprised with that. Knowing that Google has been limiting new accounts and stopping unlimited storage and multiple stories of people who got their whole drive deleted because of copyright material. I personally don't want to take that risk.

I am already aware of this, but I took the risk knowing that no single employee looks at which files are stored and that this runs automatically via the hash value - this should be changed by encrypting the file. Even if an employee then looks manually, he sees a ".bin" file without a password to decrypt it, and Google doesn't really have to care how I name my Linux Isos and holiday videos.
But an offline solution is already being created, which is why I switched to Unraid.

Sorry for the off-topic, back to the topic.

Krusader working is not surprising since it uses the root account, so it's not limited with permissions. I looked over your scripts quickly and I see nothing strange. So I think it's an samba issue. Did you upgrade to 6.11? There were changes to sambe in there, maybe check that out? Could explain why it stopped working.

 

 

Wow, I'm amazed your script for Server A worked....

 

You configured your Gcrypt as : gsuite:/crypt/media. But the correct method would be gsuite:crypt/media.

Then you also had your cache-dir in your A script to /cache. Did that work? In unraid you will have to define the actual path. Seems you did that correctly in the new script.

On the A script you didn't close the mount script with a "&", in the new script this is fixed already by default.

In your new script you put in --allow-non-empty as extra command, this is very risky to do. So make sure you thought about doing that.

 

What I find most worrying is that your crypt doesn't actually encrypt anything. Is that by choice? If you do want to switch to an actually encrypted Crypt you will have to send all your files through the crypt to your storage. It won't automatically encrypt all the files within that mount.

 

Your specific questions:

1. Don't use "Run script" in User Scripts. Always use run script in the background when running the script. If you use the run script option it will just stop the script as soon as you close the popup. That might explain why your mount drops right away.

2. You have the rclone commands here: https://rclone.org/commands/. Other than that you can for example use "rclone size gcrypt:" to see how big your gcrypt mount is in the cloud.

3. You can unmount with fusermount -uz /path/to/remote. Make sure you don't have any dockers or transfers running with access to that mount though, because they will start writing in your merger folder causing problems when you mount again.

yes 6.11 and win 11

 

i will checked to see thx a lot

hi yes  on krusader i got no problem but on windows  with network shares its not working anymore

i can't edit or rename delete etc. on the gdrive mount on windows my local shares are ok

 

 

 

I will add also my mount and upload script

 

Maybe i'm missing something

 

 

 

should i try the new permission feature you think ?

Are you accessing your content through the "mount_rclone" folder? Is it shown under the unRAID shares tab? If so, what are the share settings for the folder?

No problem, but I think it shows that you are rate limited so it will keep trying until the limitation is gone again. I don't understand why you added --max-transfer? You already have --drive-stop-on-upload-limit, so that will end the script when you hit the limit. Maybe try removing your max-transfer flag and see what the script does?

[DZMM]

Is anyone else having a problem (I think since 6.11) where files become briefly unavailable?  I used to run my script via cron every couple of mins, but I've found over the last couple of days or so that the mount will be up but Plex etc need manually restarting i.e. I think the files became unavailable for such a short period of time, that my script missed the event and didn't stop and restart my dockers?

 

I'm wondering if there's a better way than looking for the mountcheck file e.g. write a plex script that sits alongside the current script that says stop plex if files become unavailable and they rely on the existing script to restart plex?

Hi all, I updated from 3.9 to 3.11 recently and now I don't have write permission to the mergerfs folder. I tried Docker Safe New Perm but it didn't help. Any suggestions?

Can you temporarily make it public and see if you're able to edit the files? Want to make sure it is actually inheriting those permissions.

I haven't been having issues with that. It's been running pretty good actually. Maybe add a log file and change the log-level to debug to see if there is any indication of what's going on when it happens? It could also be some issue with mergerfs.

Can you post your mount script and file permissions of your directories?

 

I'm guessing this shouldn't be all root

Can you temporarily make it public and see if you're able to edit the files? Want to make sure it is actually inheriting those permissions.

I did try right now and it does not seem to be effective.

 

I can create files folders but i cant delete or rename them and only on my moun_rclone folder.

 

 

thx

Hi, 

 

I am trying to set this all up, but am not very good at it. I was trying to find a video online to help me guide through most of this. 

 

I have bought a domain in the past, and now have a Google workspace enterprise account. How do I mount that account with rclone? Is that a Gdrive or something else?

Did you update to the latest stable? They fixed something with samba again.

Getting Started

 

Install the rclone plugin and via command line run rclone config and create 2 remotes:

• gdrive: - a drive remote that connects to your gdrive account. Recommend creating your own client_id
• gdrive_media_vfs: - a crypt remote that is mounted locally and decrypts the encrypted files uploaded to gdrive:

I am trying to get this setup but am struggeling with a few things. You mention that I have to setup 2 remotes, but I don't know how. I found this video from Spaceinvaderone: 

 

but that video is very old. I followed what he did and created 2 remotes. Is that the correct way or do we need to create them some other way? This is how they look now:

 

I have made a Google business account and have my own domain. I then upgraded to Enterprise where it said unlimited storage, but when I look in Google Drive, it says that there is only 5TB. Do you know why that is?

My mount settings are above in one of my posts. I don't know your download speed, but if it isn't that high you might be downloading too big of a chunks or too far ahead. And your dir-cache-time can be 9999h.

 

Regarding your second question, what do you mean with direct play? Normally direct play within the plex context means that your client device (media player) is playing the files directly, without any transcoding needed. So that is definitely possible, just depends on your mediaplayer. Playing a 4K on a chromecast 1080p will lead to a transcode of course. And a lot of burned in subtitles also lead to transcoding for the subtitles part, but not the video part.

 

For your samba issues I would suggest you reboot without anything mounted, no dockers on and such. And then just put in a file in your mount_mergerfs folder an see whether you can open and edit that file.

Did you create these through the shell/terminal? Seems you are missing the following for the crypt mount:

filename_encryption = standard
directory_name_encryption = true

Or maybe you don't want those options enabled?

 

The googleworkspace mount seems fine. You could add:

server_side_across_configs = true

 

About the 5TB limit. Right now the google workspace accounts are a bit of unclear for new accounts and their storage. The 5TB is the personal drive limit. It will show this for me as well, but I can just go past it (I use team drives). But people with new accounts have also been reporting that they can't upload more than 5TB and you will need 2 more accounts and then ask Google for more storage every time with an explanation. You can upload 750gb per day per account (or use service accounts to have 750gb per service account, but this is a bit too complicated for you right now I think). So you'll just have to test it whether you can go past the 5TB storage.

Thanks for your help. 

 

I thought that encryption was enabled, but am not sure. 

I have opened the terminal again:

 

I then edited the googleworkspace remote

I select 1 there because I want the remote to have full access. 

I left this one blank:

 

I left the next options on default, but I am not sure what to do with the shared drive option. 

 

I left it on No for now

 

 

 

I think that should be fine, but am not sure if it is configured corectly. 

 

Here is the encrypt remote:

I just press Enter because I want it to encrypt the googleworkspace remote

 

 

 

 

I am not sure if I need to change anything here. 

[workermaster]

Can anyone verify that I have made the mounts correctly in the post above? I want everything on the Google workspace to be encrypted

[deniax]

How/where would one suggest to have the (local) mounts, looking at Trash's guides?

To keep hardlinks active across all arrs and downloaders, I should not use the default /user/local/gdrive_media_vfs/ , correct?
