fuse_gdrive

A Fuse filesystem using the Google Drive API v2 in Go.

For the impatient

1. install the fuse library for your operating system: * debian/ubuntu: apt-get install fuse * osxfuse: download and install * freebsd: cd /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-libs/ && make install * from src: http://fuse.sourceforge.net/
2. install go, at least version 1.3, for your OS
3. Ensure you set $GOPATH (~/go will work fine), then add $GOPATH/bin to your traditional $PATH environment variable.
4. use go to fetch and install this code and its dependencies:

`$ go install github.com/asjoyner/fuse_gdrive`

1. make a mount point on your system

`$ mkdir /mnt/gdrive`

1. request to mount the filesystem

`$ fuse_gdrive /mnt/gdrive`

1. A browser window will open for you to grant permission to your files in Drive.
2. Once you accept, the client will sync locally the metadata about your files in drive, and make those files accessible at the mount point you specified.

But that didn't work?

The steps above assume that you're running the fuse client on the same computer the web browser is running on. If you get an error about failing to launch a web browser, and have to copy/paste the URL by hand, then you'll also have to ensure when your web browser attempts to HTTP POST to http://localhost:12345 that it gets connected to the fuse_gdrive client. Typically, you want a command like this:

$ ssh -L12345:localhost:12345 <remote_host>
