5 years ago

This is old release!
The latest can be found here - https://github.com/kapitainsky/RcloneBrowser/releases/latest.

  • fixed Windows mount/unmount (requires rclone v1.50+)
  • Rclone Browser checks now for used rclone version (mount is disabled in Windows if rclone <v1.50)
  • added default download/upload folders - configurable in settings
  • added default download/upload extra options - configurable in settings
  • added available updates' notifications for both Rclone Browser and rclone - can be turned on/off in settings
  • all mount options are configurable via settings - generic "rclone mount remote local" is used without any options specified
  • default mount option (in settings) is "--vfs-cache-mode writes"
  • Google Drive with "shared with me" option on is always mounted as read-only
  • Windows deployment includes now all required runtime files for users without MSVCR installed
  • added ftp, MS Azureblob and Google Photos remote icons
  • modified main application window status bar to save space
  • released binary for Windows 32 bits
  • released binary for armhf 32 bits - for Raspberry Pi running raspbian
  • released universal AppImage version for most 64bit Linux versions
  • bunch of usual small tweaks and fixes

New options in Preferences:

New defaults are used for new transfers:

  • Source or Destination and Extra options fields are pre-populated with defaults from settings
  • the new icon allows to reset Source/Destination to default folder at any time (for subsequent new jobs last used folder is used)

When new version of rclone or Rclone Browser is available user is informed (once a day to make it less intrusive):

AppImage release

Download an application, make it executable, and run! No need to install. No system libraries or system preferences are altered. This is what new AppImage file format promises - https://appimage.org/
It should run on most mainstream Linux distros (Debian, Red Hat, Suse, Fedora, Arch, etc.)

Rclone Browser latest release now also contains AppImage version.

What to do:

Download rclone-browser AppImage:
wget https://github.com/kapitainsky/RcloneBrowser/releases/download/1.6.0/rclone-browser-1.6.0-5db8842-x86_64.AppImage

Make it executable:
chmod a+x rclone-browser-1.6.0-5db8842-x86_64.AppImage

and you can run it.

If it works well I might move in the future for AppImage only releases for Linux. I would appreciate your comments.

Known issues

This version can crash unexpectedly if very old version of rclone itself is used (1.3x or older). It will be fixed in the next release of Rclone browser.
Regardless I would advice to upgrade rclone - it is now 1.50.1 and a lot of improvements have been made in the meantime.
