Welcome to RMount’s documentation. Get started by reading our Installation Instruction and then get an overview with the Usage.

RMount was developed for ABLATOR be sure to check the project’s documentation.

RMount is a robust remote mount wrapper around the mount utility rclone . The python-side implementation makes it possible to integrate rclone into your python application with pre-packaged rclone binaries (version v1.62.2). This is a ready-to-go solution without external dependencies for mounting a local directory to a remote storage provider such as AWS S3. RMount is robust to time-outs, connection drops, while it abstracts the details of integrating directly with the remote provider. NOTE Currently only supports Linux.

Philosophy of the library:

  1. Monitor

  2. Restart when possible

  3. Exit Gracefully

  4. Fail Loudly
