A script to monitor a directory and its subdirectories for objects to be uploaded to your google gdrive using rclone. The script uses service accounts in a round robin approach.
Clone the repository using
git clone https://github.com/inkarnation/rclone_gdsa_uploader
mkdir rclone_gdsa_uploader/service_accounts
chmod +x rclone_gdsa_uploader/uploader.sh
Place your service account configurations in rclone_gdsa_uploader/service_accounts or in the directory configured in sa_dir. The service accounts need to be structured in incrementing .json files (e.g. 1.json, 2.json, ...).
You might configure a cronjob with e.g. crontab -e like (Using flock to prevent parallel executions):
*/15 * * * * /usr/bin/flock -n /tmp/rclone.lockfile /root/rclone_gdsa_uploader/uploader.sh
Modify /root/rclone_gdsa_uploader/uploader.sh to match the path to your cloned repository.
Make sure to adjust the variables in the script according your needs:
| Variable | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| sa_dir | Directory containing the service accounts | $(pwd)"/service_accounts" |
| current_gdsa_file | File to keep track of the service account to use next | $(pwd)"/current_gdsa" |
| local_dir | Directory containing the objects to upload | /mnt/gmedia-local |
| rclone_config | Path to your rclone config file | /root/.config/rclone/rclone.conf |
| log_file | Log file path | /opt/rclone/logs/upload.log |
