Hi, I was looking for a way to mount google drive as a FS, and found [1] and [2].
From [2], the fuse application recommended was google-drive-ocamlfuse [5]. It's available from Aur. However the amount of ocaml dependencies to get it installed was huge, and many from Aur itself. Therefore I dropped it as an option for me.
From [1], there were 2 fuse applications that got my attention, fuse-google-drive [3] and gdrivefs [4]. Both available through Aur.
I was wondering if someone is using any of them. I followed instructions for fuse-google-drive, and after authenticating I'm always getting: -------- ... Host: docs.google.com User-Agent: fuse-google-drive/0.1 Accept: */* Authorization: OAuth <...> < HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request < Content-Type: application/vnd.google.gdata.error+xml < Date: Sat, 13 Jun 2015 22:51:20 GMT < Expires: Sat, 13 Jun 2015 22:51:20 GMT < Cache-Control: private, max-age=0 < X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff < X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN < X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block < Server: GSE < Accept-Ranges: none < Vary: Accept-Encoding < Transfer-Encoding: chunked < * Connection #0 to host docs.google.com left intact -------- The target mount point gets actually used as if were mounted, but with nothing within. One needs to go and do "fusermount -u" to it... Well, although this should mount "read only", as the author indicates, it's the smallest mountfs application, and the one with less dependencies. Is anyone else using it successfully? It seems last commit was on 2012-09 unfortunately. Like there's no further work on it. Is that the case? Gdrivefs is a different story. It's working for me, and its last commit was on 2015-06 (just this month). I'm using the git version on Aur. The only problem with gdrivefs is the several dependencies on python2 stuff. Not as many as the ocaml solution, but definitely way more than fuse-google-drive. Any problems at all with gdrivefs? If someone is using whether fuse-google-drive or gdrivefs, please share any drawbacks, pitfalls, how to make it work in teh case of fuse-google-drive, and some other stuff you might want to share. I'm looking for light non gui dependent options, :-) Thanks, -- Javier [1] https://code.google.com/p/gdrive-linux/wiki/Tools [2] http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/37234/mount-google-drive-in-linux [3] https://github.com/jcline/fuse-google-drive [4] https://github.com/dsoprea/GDriveFS [5] https://github.com/astrada/google-drive-ocamlfuse
