Backend REST API

Overview

The REST API (GitHub source) is responsible for handling mount operations by executing rclone commands based on incoming requests. It supports POST, GET, and DELETE methods, making it a flexible solution capable of leveraging most of rclone's features.

Supported Methods

POST /

Mounts external storage based on the provided configuration.

Request Body Example:

{
  "path": "relative_path",
  "options": {
    "config": {
      # rclone configuration
    },
    "readonly": false,
    "template": "s3"
  }
}

GET /

Returns a list of currently active mounts.

DELETE /{path:path}

Unmounts a previously mounted storage location.

Flexibility & Feature Set

Since the API directly executes rclone commands based on the provided parameters, it is highly flexible and supports nearly all features of rclone. Users can configure different storage providers, authentication methods, and transfer settings as needed.
