File operations from/to pCloud to Crypto Folder

[mathieucarbou]

Please see this ticket that I have opened: rclone/rclone#4053

I would like to be able to do some file operations from/to encrypted folder.

Use case is that I have plenty of files I would like to move but I do not want to re-upload them.

Also, I would like to do that through rclone, which is using the REST API I think.

Since this involves client side encryption, anything going in and out of "Crypto Folder" (from and to normal folder) requires an upload. Also encryption.

Good point... So that means if rclone was to provide a move operation, it would need download, then upload then remove. This is acceptable even if slower if the user wants that.

The thing is that right now, I don't think this is even possible to do that ?

Rclone sees everything as encrypted. Is there some API somewhere that would allow file i/o operations on encrypted folder, by asking the user for the the password ?

@mathieucarbou I have the same use case, I want to use r-sync (or similar) to backup pcloud encrypted vaul to my local file system.
Is there a way, perhaps using the sdk API?
