jdbox is a simple Google Drive client for Linux. It is written in Java and uses fuse-jna to provide
a FUSE file system that can access files in Google Drive. It uses some caching to optimize latency of some operations.
git clone https://github.com/stepank/jdbox.git
cd jdbox
git submodule init
git submodule update
make clean install
NOTE: make sure that JDK7 is installed.
It will install jdbox into ~/opt/jdbox. It will also create mount point directory ~/mnt/jdbox and
directory ~/.jdbox for configs and credentials.
If you would like to change these defaults you can run this instead:
MOUNT_POINT=... INSTALL_DIR=... make clean install
To run jdbox:
$ INSTALL_DIR/jdbox.sh
To update runtime:
make clean update
To uninstall:
make uninstall
WARNING: do not run with sudo.
The easiest way to set up development environment is to run:
make setup_tests
It will create mount point ~/mnt/jdbox-test and config directory ~/.jdbox-test to set up test
environment. To do so, it will ask you to open a link in your web browser to generate an OAuth 2.0
key that will be used to authorize all requests to Google Drive API performed during auto tests.
WARNING: I suggest not using your personal Google account, but to create a test one - these are only tests, after all.
After doing this set up, you will be able to run auto tests with:
make test
In fact, this target depends on setup_tests, but I decided to be more explicit here.
