rclone. You can do that by opening the Koofr
web application,
giving the password a nice name like rclone and clicking on generate.
Here is an example of how to make a remote called koofr. First run:
rclone config
This will guide you through an interactive setup process:
No remotes found, make a new one?

You can choose to edit advanced config in order to enter your own service URL if you use an on-premise or white label Koofr instance, or choose an alternative mount instead of your primary storage.
Once configured you can then use rclone like this:
List directories in top level of your Koofr
rclone lsd koofr:
List all the files in your Koofr
rclone ls koofr:
To copy a local directory to an Koofr directory called backup
rclone copy /home/source koofr:backup
Restricted filename characters

| Character | Value | Replacement |

Invalid UTF-8 bytes will also be replaced, as they can't be used in XML strings.
