Cloudbox VS cloudplow

https://docs.saltbox.dev or https://cloudbox.works

I have just got my first seedbox and im trying to get it setup, first thing i would like to do is get plex working with my existing libraries stored on Google Drive. I have followed all the guides ( How to mount Google Drive for Plex usage | RapidSeedbox: Help Center & Google Drive API Client ID and Client Secret · Cloudbox/Cloudbox Wiki · GitHub )

Plex + https://cloudbox.works/ on a server in a friendly country. Fully automatic once you set it up.

Swizzin, Cloudbox or /r/plexshares are the easiest ways.

If you're willing to put in the work, I recommend taking a look at Cloudbox.

Biggest established tooling projects are Cloudbox (Docker), and Swizzin' (not Docker).

See also Cloudbox, and Swizzin'. The latter is a more complete, alibeit not Dockery, soln.

You'd probably prefer to look at something like Cloudbox then, which is a kind of Dockerized version of the same thing. Also pretty popular.

I might just stick to my previous idea, but it's not user friendly for other people in my household. I'm using Cloudplow. So I'll add an rclone_extras tag for '--exclude-from' that references an excluded list.

Multiple in parallel. To avoid this, you could write a simple bash script to only allow one instance of itself. Example here. Alternatively, I recommend checking out cloudplow.

Something else of interest might be Cloudplow or Crop. Cloudplow is a Python implementation of rclone that extends it to a serviceable state for automatic transfer of files. Crop does this similarly but uses the go language.

Check out Cloudplow and rclone.

You can use something like cloudplow to get around the 750gb limit. Cloudplow can automate using different service accounts which each have their own limit.

As you’ve mentioned you’d like to use rclone, I’d suggest you read up on unionfs or mergerfs and configuring something like CloudPlow or Crop to manage uploads to the cloud for you.

As you have a linux seedbox, I would look into cloudplow.

One way to accomplish this, at least in function, would be to not use the mount to upload. Use something like mergerfs to combine the mount folder and a local folder. Stuff gets written to to the local folder while stuff gets read from both. Then on a schedule use a script to automatically upload stuff. cloudplow is also an option instead of just calling rclone directly to upload. Instead of operating on a fixed schedule it watches the local folder's size and uploads when needed. This helps you not run out of space.
