OpenDrive OAuth Support

[freQniK]

Looking to add OpenDrive OAuth support.

The associated forum post URL from https://forum.rclone.org

https://forum.rclone.org/t/opendrive-oauth-support/27965

What is your current rclone version (output from rclone version)?

rclone v1.57.0

What problem are you are trying to solve?

After about 36 hours, the OpenDrive mount gets logged out and provides an error to "re-login".
To skirt this issue, I exit my rclone script, unmount the drive if not already unmounted, and re-run the script to log back in.

How do you think rclone should be changed to solve that?

Using the OAuth support found here:

When can we expect this? I just got a notification that my Alumnus Google Drive account wants me to delete all my 30TB of data by August 1st. Seeing as OpenDrive is one of the remaining few that still has "unlimitied' data, I need to migrate my data there and hoping this support in rclone will come before August 1st.

@MathNodes OpenDrive support is working it just needs a username and password rather than oauth.

Oauth would likely solve the 36 hour logout, though this could be solved by renewing the login also.

Do you want to work on either of those solutions?

I do want to work on them, I just have no idea when I would find the time. Many projects cooking atm. Was kind of hoping OAuth support could be added by the rclone team.

We have a large backlog of stuff to do, so if you want to see it any time soon then help would be appreciated :-)
