Google Drive CLI Client

IMPORTANT

This repository is not maintained anymore. Gdrive 3 is its successor.

Prerequisites

None, binaries are statically linked. If you want to compile from source you need the go toolchain. Version 1.5 or higher.

Installation

With Homebrew on Mac

brew install gdrive

Other

Download gdrive from one of the links in the latest release. The first time gdrive is launched (i.e. run gdrive about in your terminal not just gdrive), you will be prompted for a verification code. The code is obtained by following the printed url and authenticating with the google account for the drive you want access to. This will create a token file inside the .gdrive folder in your home directory. Note that anyone with access to this file will also have access to your google drive. If you want to manage multiple drives you can use the global --config flag or set the environment variable GDRIVE_CONFIG_DIR. Example: GDRIVE_CONFIG_DIR="/home/user/.gdrive-secondary" gdrive list You will be prompted for a new verification code if the folder does not exist.

Compile from source

go get github.com/prasmussen/gdrive

The gdrive binary should now be available at $GOPATH/bin/gdrive

Syncing

Gdrive supports basic syncing. It only syncs one way at the time and works more like rsync than e.g. dropbox. Files that are synced to google drive are tagged with an appProperty so that the files on drive can be traversed faster. This means that you can't upload files with gdrive upload into a sync directory as the files would be missing the sync tag, and would be ignored by the sync commands. The current implementation is slow and uses a lot of memory if you are syncing many files. Currently only one file is uploaded at the time, the speed can be improved in the future by uploading several files concurrently. To learn more see usage and the examples below.

Service Account

For server to server communication, where user interaction is not a viable option, is it possible to use a service account, as described in this Google document. If you want to use a service account, instead of being interactively prompted for authentication, you need to use the --service-account <serviceAccountCredentials> global option, where serviceAccountCredentials is a file in JSON format obtained through the Google API Console, and its location is relative to the config dir.

.gdriveignore

Placing a .gdriveignore in the root of your sync directory can be used to skip certain files from being synced. .gdriveignore follows the same rules as .gitignore, except that gdrive only reads the .gdriveignore file in the root of the sync directory, not ones in any subdirectories.

gdrive's Issues

Upload into a directory?

Hey @prasmussen, very well done. I see great potential in this tool, but I couldn't find any documentation and my tests failed:
how would one upload a file into an existing directory?

My plan is to automate a build script and share the binarys in a public folder on my gdrive

Thanks and keep up the good work!

auth error

summary:  331 GiByte in 15h 42min 35.7sec - average of 6136 KiB/s
An error occurred uploading the document: googleapi: Error 401: Invalid Credentials, authError

kept getting this error when uploading large file
any suggestion?

Feature Addition: Please add support for file deletion upon successful upload

Hi

Please add a cli parameter to delete the file from the local drive ( source ) upon successful upload

Cannot write to stdin large files

Hi

Cannot pipe in a 5 MiB file and get it uploaded.
GDrive link
URL="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0B3X9GlR6EmbnbGRXcWFWWWVOdTg"

curl $URL | gdrive/gdrive -c gdrive/conf upload -s -t "test.tmp"
wget $URL -O - | gdrive/gdrive -c gdrive/conf upload -s -t "test.tmp"

download by type

is it possible to download by type just as you can in the web UI of google drive ?

How to get file or folder ID by remote path?

How to get file or folder ID in remote path?

for example:
pi@PI:~$drive list --getId /RaspberryPi/Files
0b_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
(↑↑↑Don't work,just example↑↑↑)

google drive allow same filename in a folder,when it occur:
pi@PI:~$drive list --getId /RaspberryPi/Files/123.txt
0b_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 2015-02-13 11:22:33
0b_yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy 2015-02-13 12:34:56
(↑↑↑Don't work,just example↑↑↑)

my english is not grate,please ignore my grammar problem.

Flag -i should not be needed

When working with files we could not need to provide -i with the id, it should be part of the args.

gdrive info -i aldksjfladskjf
gdrive info aldksjfladskjf

I'm not too familiar with the flags package that you are using. Do you know if the package supports taking args and populating the Options struct?

10GB File Size Limitation?

Is is possible now to support files larger than 10GB?

I see in their Developer SDK site for Drive API v2 that it still says 10GB, but other sync clients such as insync support files larger than 10GB.

https://support.google.com/drive/answer/37603?hl=en
"Other files: Files that you upload but don’t convert to a Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides format can be up to 1TB each."

I would be so very happy if this great program could support files larger than 10GB.

In the mean time, loving it :)

Max list at 460

For some reason, running list while querying against a parent ID (listing all files in that directory) even with a -m for max return value only returns 460 file entries... anything lower than 460 works properly, but nothing seems to work past it.

Folder support

When I use upload verb, it currently interprets slashes as it is rather than directory notation, so it makes a title with slashes in the root of the drive. I think it would be better if it supports uploading to folders.

Thanks for your great software!

update file

Hi
Great work, (I like cmd line!). Could you please add 'update' looks like it is possible with: https://developers.google.com/drive/v2/reference/files/update
I am not a go programmer!
Many thanks

Multiple Parents

Hi

I just started using your binaries and I find it to be great. Just wanted to know if there is a provision to make multiple parents of an object being uploaded. I read somewhere that google drive gives this feature

upload folder, some files are missing

I just uploaded a folder with
gdrive-cli upload -f name\ folder/ -p 0123456789abcdef

Of the 7 files in folder, 2 are missing.
Is there a way to understand why? A log file, a verbose mode?

thanks

add new request

Hi,
Please add a new feature to delete all files(empty) in the drive instead of delete file one by one.

Thanks for useful script.

long uploads fail

Uploads that take longer than 1 hour (due to file size or limited bandwidth, or both) result in:

googleapi: Error 401: Invalid Credentials, authError

from code.google.com/p/google-api-go-client/drive/v2/drive-gen.go:3481, upon googleapi.CheckResponse(res).

My assumption is that Google is testing the expired-during-transit access_key upon completion of the POST rather than at the beginning.

Upload speed issue

I've noticed several people here are having speed issue.

For me, I am using a VPS, which comes with at least 200MiB/s upload speed, and great peering with Google.

But my speed is kinds of limited to 1~1.5MiB/s.

Any idea what caused such problem?

@erpalma
@bxshi

Copy support

Copying files is supported by the API (https://developers.google.com/drive/v2/reference/files/copy) but not by gdrive. It would be really useful, especially for working with drive only doc (eg gdoc).

cron job configuration

Hello!

Thank you for this project. I have a problem, I am able to use the drive in a shell script, however when I set it as a cron job for the same user, it fails.

I have tried with custom config file and no changes..

Do you know how I might be able to debug it?
Thanks!

gdrive doesn't show Google Docs

drive list -nq "'$fileid' in parents"

where $fileid is the ID of a folder containing .gdoc (Google Docs) files and child folders only shows the child folders.

Listing the contents of one of the child folders shows the PDFs it contains, so it seems like .gdoc files aren't visible using this tool?

Very annoying as Google Drive has begun converting all notes from .gdoc to .docx upon zip download, with no option to turn off conversion as for uploads 😞

Edit: Notes on my solution to the latter problem are here (though still unclear why this tool can't make the process easier)

Upload a directory, check MD5 of files before

If uploading a directory, it reuploads file that didn't change.

Would be better to check files already on server, compare their MD5 with local files,
upload only files that changed.

Thanks

trickle doesn't work with gdrive

I'm uploading 20 folders with the new folder option and it works really great!
I would like to use trickle to limit the upload bandwith but i saw it doesn't work with gdrive.

I run a command like this:
trickle -u 10 drive.go upload -p 0f4543fe2fdB8 -f /mnt/usb/

But it always use full upload bandwith.

Could you try and test it?
Thanks.

Long uploads fail when using stdin

Basically, I'm facing the same issue as in #20. As I can clearly see within the last commit, the bugfix doesn't apply to stdin and only helps when directly specifying large files. As I need both a progress bar and some ratelimiting, I've created a bashscript which recursively uploads whole directories including all files. Also, I've implemented MD5 checksumming, so that those files won't get reuploaded.

The way I'm calling this application is like that: cat largefile | pv -pteraT -L <ratelimit> -s <totalfilesize> | ./gdrive upload -s -t <filename> -p <folderid>. After quiet a few hours of uploading, it failed with "Error 401: Invalid credentials" as listed above. Could that fix also get implemented for uploading via stdin?

drive -a and drive -c

Hi. I was wondering how to use drive -a to change a google drive account.

drive -c doesn't seem to do anything but it may be because I have the wrong arguments.

Can Order by Name or modifiedDate ?

Hi there.
Default List return the file list sorted by modifiedDate
I can list with sort Order by Name?
Thanks

Am I doing anything wrong?

gdrive not displaying spreadsheets

when i type:
gdrive list

all of my files are displayed except for excel/spreadsheets

Exit code is not set

Hi

When an error occurs, the exit code is still set to 0.

The error message is print but the program does not exit with none zero exit code. It can be read in the code:

gdrive/cli/cli.go

Line 180 in af67666

fmt.Printf("An error occurred: %v\n", err)

The current behavior makes the following command to always output OK even when it should fail:
(gdrive/gdrive -c gdrive/conf upload -f tmp/* && echo OK) || echo FAIL

An error occurred uploading the document: googleapi: Error 403: The user has exceeded their Drive storage quota
OK

Download all files in a folder

Currently possible?

Download links

The download links for linux version do not contain extensions. In what format are they exactly in?

Error uploading big files

Uploading a big file (>20GB) to my Drive lead me to this error:

An error occurred uploading the document: Post https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v2/files?alt=json&convert=false&uploadType=resumable&upload_id=CUT: dial tcp: lookup www.googleapis.com on 8.8.8.8:53: dial udp 8.8.8.8:53: too many open files

I have enough free space to upload the file and I use version 1.5.1 on ubuntu 14.04 amd64.

P.S. Am I the only one having lower uploading speed with latest version? ~1-2MB/s on a 100Mbit network.

Ultimate performance. But one great drawback...

Dear developer,

This is very useful for all platform developers.

But progress bar is not found for download/upload.

Please provide this feature.

It's awesome work. Keep it up....

Directory upload in Win

Great little helper, I'm just missing a couple of details:

• Is it possible to upload full folders on a Win environment?
  I have tried all possible commands but I cannot make it work.
  drive-windows-amd64.exe upload -f test
  drive-windows-amd64.exe upload -f /test
  drive-windows-amd64.exe upload -f \test
  ...
  Any ideas?

Also, the ability of uploading new versions of a file would be a great addition, as discussed in many other posts. This would allow us to use the versioning feature in Drive.

Thanks again

Option to overwrite existing files

Would it be possible to implement an option to overwrite existing files (both when downloading and uploading a file)?

armv5 version

Could you provide a version for armv5 ?

When I try "drive-linux-rpi v1.6.1" on my NAS (NSA325v2) I get "Illegal instruction (core dumped)"
Using "drive-linux-arm v1.6.1" I get "runtime: this CPU has no floating point hardware, so it cannot run
this GOARM=6 binary. Recompile using GOARM=5."

NSA325 uses a Marvell Kirkwood . Looking at arch linux, this is a armv5 platform.

broken pipe uploading 500mb file

This is the error message I get when trying to upload a 500mb file.

An error occurred uploading the document: Post https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v2/files?alt=json&uploadType=multipart: write tcp 74.125.28.95:443: broken pipe

File revision

Google drive provides file revision for up to 30 days,
could gdrive access those information and allow reverting to an older version ?

Also, if uploading a file with same name in the same directory, overwrite the old one instead of creating a new file.

Thanks

Space used and space left

Hi, could you add a command to return spaced used, free space, total space of the google drive ?

It would be great to add a check space left before uploading a large file,
or specify a min_free_space=500mb
so an upload doesn't fill all the space left ... because emails will bounce back if no more space.

P.S.
It would be usefull to have all filesize return in bytes with
list -b and info -b

Thanks and great work !

Add OCR support

Great tool! Thanks for making this.
Can you add the option to enable OCR on a file upload?

Environment variable for alternative config directory

Instead of aliasing gdrive, e.g.

alias gdrive="gdrive -c $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gdrive"

It'll be nicer to have an environment variable to do that, e.g.

export GDRIVE_CONFIG_DIR="$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gdrive"

Directory upload is not recursive

I suppose this is a deliberate choice, but the fact that uploading a directory only uploads the files in it (and not the subdirectories) is rather inconvenient - especially since it's not made clear.
Ideally, there should be a recursive mode but, failing that, I think that the behavior should be explicit.

`gdrive list` seems to return a max of 94 items

The gdrive list command seems to never return more than 94 items (plus a one line header). Examples:

macbookpro:~ griscom$ gdrive list -q "title != 'lksdlkjsdfljkds'" | wc
      95     790   10070
macbookpro:~ griscom$ gdrive list -q "title contains '0'" | wc
      95     790   10070
macbookpro:~ griscom$ gdrive list -q "title contains 'xml'" | wc
      31     191    3100
macbookpro:~ griscom$ gdrive list -q "title contains '1'" | wc
      95     790   10070
macbookpro:~ griscom$ gdrive list | wc
      95     790   10070
macbookpro:~ griscom$ gdrive list -q "title contains 'd'" | wc
      95     790   10070
macbookpro:~ griscom$ gdrive list -q "title contains 'l'" | wc
      95     790   10070
macbookpro:~ griscom$ gdrive list -q "title contains 'lksdflkj8833'" | wc
       1       4      31
macbookpro:~ griscom$ 

Is this a Google Drive limitation, or something inside of gdrive?

RFE: "emptytrash" support

It would be great if a future version could support Files: emptyTrash, which could finally give us a method to automate trash cleanup. Thanks! -JW

File Type Recognition

Thank you for making this tool!
I've uploaded the apk file.

"C:\gdrive\drive-windows-386.exe" upload --file "C:\test.apk"

It seemed to be able to upload successfully. But, the file seems to be recognized as a zip file.
When I upload it manually, apk has been recognized correctly. I think it's a problem of this tool.
Thanks.

Cannot list files inside a folder

Or at least I can't see how to - how does this work?

Upload a folder

It would be great to be able to upload an entire folder at once.
