Releases: Zarestia-Dev/rclone-manager
RClone Manager v0.2.1
🔥 Hotfix & Feature Update v0.2.1
Fresh off the release of v0.2.0, this update brings a major quality-of-life improvement for managing running tasks, along with critical fixes for containerized environments and the update mechanism.
🌟 Highlight: Intelligent Job Grouping
Managing multiple operations just got cleaner. Jobs are now automatically organized and grouped by Remote Name and Profile Name (e.g., sync/Google Drive/default).
- Better Visibility: View transfer stats per remote instead of a mixed global list.
- Batch Control: Stop all running jobs for a specific remote with a single click.
- Organization: Easily track operations on a per-remote basis.
✨ What’s New
📊 Mount Disk Usage
Added support for rclone rc core/du. You can now check the disk usage of your mounted remotes directly from the Mount Control accordion (calculates usage from the local mount point).
🎨 Visuals & UX
- New Icons: Integrated the MoreWaita icon theme for a cleaner, modern look in the Nautilus component.
- More Notifications: Expanded system notifications to keep you better informed of app states and background tasks.
🛠️ Changes & Fixes
🧠 Memory Optimization Behavior
- Tray-Only Reopen: When "Memory Optimization" is enabled, the app now strictly enforces reopening via the Tray Icon. Launching from desktop shortcuts or the command line will no longer duplicate processes or mess with the optimized state.
🐛 Bug Fixes
- Update Logic: Improved the rclone update mechanism. The app now verifies if the preconfigured path is writable. If not, it automatically falls back to the default config path to prevent update failures.
- Container Support: Fixed path handling issues specifically for containerized/Docker versions.
- General: Various small stability fixes and performance improvements.

RClone Manager Headless v0.1.8
🌐 RClone Manager Headless
Run RClone Manager as a web server on any Linux machine
Perfect for servers, NAS devices, and remote systems
📖 What is RClone Manager Headless?
RClone Manager Headless is a web server version of RClone Manager that runs on Linux servers without a graphical desktop environment. Access the full RClone Manager interface through your web browser from any device on your network.
✨ Why Headless Mode?
- 🖥️ Run on servers – Perfect for headless Linux servers, NAS devices, or VPS
- 🌐 Access anywhere – Manage your rclone remotes from any device with a web browser
- 🔒 Secure by default – Built-in authentication and optional TLS/HTTPS support
- ⚡ Lightweight – Minimal resource usage compared to running a full desktop application
- 🚀 Same features – ~99% feature parity with the desktop version
⚠️ Important Technical Note
RClone Manager Headless is built using Tauri, a desktop application framework. To make it work on servers without a display, we use a virtual display (Xvfb) that runs in the background. This means:
Requirements
- GTK/WebKit libraries – The application requires some GUI libraries (automatically installed)
- Xvfb – Virtual display server (automatically installed and managed)
- Not "truly" headless – It's a desktop app running on a virtual display, not a pure web server
Why This Approach?
- ✅ 99% feature parity with desktop version
- ✅ Shared codebase – Same interface and functionality
- ✅ Faster development – Updates and features arrive simultaneously
- ✅ Proven stability – Uses the same tested code as desktop builds
⚠️ Extra dependencies – Requires a few more libraries than a pure web server would
The approach works reliably on servers, but be aware that it's a desktop application adapted for server use, not a native web server. In practice, this distinction rarely matters for day-to-day use.
Note: Do not run the rclone-manager-headless-bin. That is the raw desktop binary and will crash in environments without a real display. On server systems, always start: rclone-manager-headless
🚀 Quick Start
Basic Usage
# Start the server (default: http://0.0.0.0:8080)
rclone-manager-headless
# Access via browser
# Open http://your-server-ip:8080Command Line Options

-H, --host <HOST> Host address to bind to [default: 0.0.0.0]
-p, --port <PORT> Port to listen on [default: 8080]
-u, --user <USER> Username for Basic Authentication
--pass <PASS> Password for Basic Authentication
--tls-cert <PATH> Path to TLS certificate file
--tls-key <PATH> Path to TLS key file
-h, --help Print help informationExamples
Change Port
rclone-manager-headless --port 3000
# Access at http://your-server-ip:3000Enable Authentication
rclone-manager-headless --user admin --pass secretpassword

rclone-manager-headless --host 192.168.1.100 --port 8080
# Only accessible from 192.168.1.100:8080🔧 Configuration
Environment Variables
You can configure the server using environment variables instead of command-line arguments:
# Set environment variables
export RCLONE_MANAGER_HOST="0.0.0.0"
export RCLONE_MANAGER_PORT="8080"
export RCLONE_MANAGER_USER="admin"
export RCLONE_MANAGER_PASS="secretpassword"
export RCLONE_MANAGER_TLS_CERT="/path/to/cert.pem"
export RCLONE_MANAGER_TLS_KEY="/path/to/key.pem"
# Start the server
