About rclone_jobber backup script

rclone_jobber.sh is a shell script to make backups. It performs a backup job by calling rclone. Rclone is a mature tool and many third party tools use rclone.

rclone_jobber.sh has been tested on Linux, and should also run on macOS and Windows 10 wsl.

The rclone jobber tutorial includes backup-job and restore-job examples for a home computer.

rclone_jobber.sh features:

  • Options to archive old backup files in their original hierarchy
  • Abort if job is already running (maybe previous run didn’t finish)
  • Pop-up for error conditions
  • Option for a cron-monitoring service
  • Logging
  • POSIX compliant
  • Free (open source Creative Commons Zero license)

Rclone features:

  • Back up to remote cloud storage (safe from local disaster)
  • Over 30 cloud-storage providers to choose from (so you’re never locked into a provider)
  • Back up to local storage
  • Optional encryption (Crypt)
  • MD5/SHA1 hashes checked at all times for file integrity
  • Timestamps preserved on files
  • Filter rules (to exclude or include files)
  • rsync-like algorithm and interface
  • Sync (one way) mode to make a directory identical
  • Partial syncs supported on a whole file basis
  • Free (open source MIT license)

Both rclone and rclone_jobber.sh are command line tools. If you prefer a GUI, checkout RcloneBrowser.
