synology-pcloud-and-rclone's Issues

Documentation looks wrong to me - serious bug I think

The scariest part of any copy or sync command is getting the args in the wrong order, copying from the destination to the source, and therefore losing valuable data. I think that is what you have in the documentation.


> 
> First case: you want to mirror ALL the content of the folder DATA that's in your pcloud storage IN your NAS.
> 
> Find in your NAS the location of the destination folder, it should be in /PATH/TO/NAME_OF_YOUR_VOLUME. Take a look under Storage manager or give a simple:
> 
> ls / 
> and check the volume name. Let's say it's /volume1/share/DATA, to sync you you shall launch:
> 
>>>>>   rclone --config="/var/rclone.conf" sync pcloud:DATA/ /volume1/share/DATA
> Second case: You want to sync ALL pcloud content IN your storage: the command is:
> 
>>>>>>  rclone sync --config="/var/rclone.conf" pcloud:/ /volume1/share/CloudSync/pcloud/

Aren't these commands backward? going from pcloud to Synology NAS?

By the way, thanks for the project and the detailed instructions. Look like just what I am looking for, but using the correct rclone commands.
