How can I upload files to iffcloud from a terminal?

For synchronizing data with cloud storage, you can use the rclone command:

1. Create a new rclone configuration:

   rclone config
   n  # n) New remote
   

   Configure rclone to use iffcloud:

   Question	Value
   name	iffcloud
   storage	33 / webdav
   url	https://iffcloud.fz-juelich.de/remote.php/webdav/
   vendor	1 / nextcloud
   User name	Linux user name
   Password	y / type in my own password -> Linux password
   bearer_token	<empty>
   Edit advanced config	n

2. Upload a directory to the cloud:

   rclone copy <source-directory> iffcloud:<target-directory>
   

   Source and target directory can be swapped to sync from the iffcloud to the local storage.

   If you would like to make source and target identical (potentially deleting files on the target) use rclone sync instead.

3. (Optional) Visit https://iffcloud.fz-juelich.de/ and share the uploaded data.
