Google Drive with FUSE

Would be possible to use Google Drive with FUSE for to build filesystem in unix systems?

Solution

  • https://github.com/jcline/fuse-google-drive

    fuse-google-drive is a fuse filesystem wrapper for Google Drive released under GPLv2

    Currently in alpha stages. Do not trust this for anything important...

    Discussion:

    • #fuse-google-drive on irc.freenode.net

    Usage:

    Right now you need to go to http://code.google.com/apis/console and create a new app and generate a client id and client secret for an install application. The clientid value and clientsecrets value should each go into:

    $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fuse-google-drive/clientid
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fuse-google-drive/clientsecrets

    respectively. You should chmod 700 $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fuse-google-drive as well. If the folder does not exist at runtime, a helpful message is printed and the directory is created with the correct permissions if possible. Note: If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is unset on your system, it defaults to ~/.config/.

    $ mkdir mountpoint
$ ./fuse-google-drive mountpoint
