samba-rclone-bridge-docker

This container will create a windows network share and move all new files to a cloud provider.

Many high end printers have a scanner. Many of these printers also have a feature to scan to a local network share. Such a feature is useful but a bit dated in a cloud-centric world. This container helps to bridge the gap. Configure rclone, launch the container, then configure your printer to scan to the share.

Quickstart

Get and configure rclone for your preferred cloud provider.
Launch the container

docker run \
  --name scanbridge \
  --publish 137-139:137-139 \
  --publish 445:445 \
  --volume /path/to/rclone/config/dir:/config \
  vangorra/samba-rclone-bridge-docker \
  --destination GoogleDrive:Scanned

Configure your printer to scan to \machine_ip\files.
