I switched to Rclone recently for personal backups and it's unbelievable how slick, stable, and well-behaved this program is.

As far as I can tell though, it does not expose an API beyond its command line interface though.

Wish I knew about this a week ago..

I'm using CrashPlan to backup from my laptop to another computer on the network. I see that rclone can backup to a local filesystem. Do you happen to know if I can I do with rclone what I do with CrashPlan? i.e. use rclone to backup my local filesystem to a remote server?

It looks very sleek though, I'll have to give it a try.

It's open source golang, just copy and paste if you need to. Or send a PR for an api.
