Bug#814448: RFP: grive2 -- Google Drive client with support for new Drive REST API and partial sync
I had a look at this package today, and it seem to be useful for keeping a local and remote Google drive storage in sync. A draft package is available from the Ubuntu ppa. I downloaded https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/ubuntu/webupd8/+sourcefiles/grive2/0.5.1-1+git20180819~webupd8~bionic0/grive2_0.5.1-1+git20180819~webupd8~bionic0.dsc to test the package. The ppa package fail to start automatically because it only provide systemd user services. I wrote a simple ~/.config/autostart/grive.desktop file to get it going when the user log in: [Desktop Entry] Name=Google drive autosync Type=Application Exec=/home/user/bin/grive-sync The script look like this: #!/bin/sh set -e cd ~/ while true; do if ! xhost >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then echo "no DISPLAY, exiting $0" exit 1 fi if [ ! -e /run/user/1000/grive-sync.sh_googledrive ] ; then /usr/lib/grive/grive-sync.sh sync googledrive fi /usr/lib/grive/grive-sync.sh listen googledrive sleep 300 done If you want to maintain it in Debian, I would be happy to sponsor your upload. See http://www.hungry.com/~pere/debian-sponsoring.html > for my preferences. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen

Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: grive2 Version : 0.5.0 Upstream Author : Vitaliy Filippov* URL : http://yourcmc.ru/wiki/Grive2 * License : GPL Programming Lang: C++ Description : Google Drive client with support for new Drive REST API and partial sync This is the fork of original "Grive" (https://github.com/Grive/grive) Google Drive client with the support for the new Drive REST API and partial sync. Grive can be considered still beta or pre-beta quality. It simply downloads all the files in your Google Drive into the current directory. After you make some changes to the local files, run grive again and it will upload your changes back to your Google Drive. New files created locally or in Google Drive will be uploaded or downloaded respectively. Deleted files will also be "removed". Currently Grive will NOT destroy any of your files: it will only move the files to a directory named .trash or put them in the Google Drive trash. You can always recover them.
