Restructuring of config code in v1.55 resulted in config
file being loaded early at process startup. If configuration
file is encrypted this means user will need to supply the password,
even when running commands that does not use config.
This also lead to an issue where mount with --deamon failed to
decrypt the config file when it had to prompt user for passord.
Fixes#5236Fixes#5228
Before this change the config file needed to be explicitly reloaded.
This coupled the config file implementation with the backends
needlessly.
This change stats the config file to see if it needs to be reloaded on
every config file operation.
This allows us to remove calls to
- config.SaveConfig
- config.GetFresh
Which now makes the the only needed interface to the config file be
that provided by configmap.Map when rclone is not being configured.
This also adds tests for configfile
This splits config.go into ui.go for the user interface functions and
authorize.go for the implementation of `rclone authorize`.
It also moves the tests into the correct places (including one from
obscure which was in the wrong place).
If you are using rclone a library you can decide to use the rclone
config file system or not by calling
configfile.LoadConfig(ctx)
If you don't you will need to set `config.Data` to an implementation
of `config.Storage`.
Other changes
- change interface of config.FileGet to remove unused default
- remove MustValue from config.Storage interface
- change GetValue to return string or bool like elsewhere in rclone
- implement a default config file system which panics with helpful error
- implement getWithDefault to replace the removed MustValue
- don't embed goconfig.ConfigFile so we can change the methods
This is done by making fs.Config private and attaching it to the
context instead.
The Config should be obtained with fs.GetConfig and fs.AddConfig
should be used to get a new mutable config that can be changed.
Before this change there was some ambiguity about whether passwords
were obscured on not passing them into config create or config update.
This change adds the --obscure and --no-obscure flags to make the
intent clear.
It also updates the remote control and the tests.
Fixes#3728
Before this change when using "rclone config create" it wasn't
possible to add passwords in one go, it was necessary to call "rclone
config password" to add the passwords afterwards as "rclone config
create" didn't obscure passwords.
After this change "rclone config create" and "rclone config update"
will obscure passwords as necessary as will the corresponding API
calls config/create and config/update.
This makes "rclone config password" and its API config/password
obsolete, however they will be left for backwards compatibility.
The purpose of this is to make it easier to maintain and eventually to
allow the rclone backends to be re-used in other projects without
having to use the rclone configuration system.
The new code layout is documented in CONTRIBUTING.
