ODrive (Open Drive) – Google Drive GUI Client For Linux
|
||
======
|
||
|
||
This we had discussed in so many times. However, i will give a small introduction about it.
|
||
|
||
As of now there is no official Google Drive Client for Linux and we need to use unofficial clients.
|
||
|
||
There are many applications available in Linux for Google Drive integration.
|
||
|
||
Each application has came out with set of features.
|
||
|
||
We had written few articles about this in our website in the past.
|
||
|
||
Those are **[DriveSync][1]** , **[Google Drive Ocamlfuse Client][2]** and **[Mount Google Drive in Linux Using Nautilus File Manager][3]**.
|
||
|
||
Today also we are going to discuss about the same topic and the utility name is ODrive.
|
||
|
||
### What’s ODrive?
|
||
|
||
ODrive stands for Open Drive. It’s a GUI client for Google Drive which was written in electron framework.
|
||
|
||
It’s simple GUI which allow users to integrate the Google Drive with few steps.
|
||
|
||
### How To Install & Setup ODrive on Linux?
|
||
|
||
Since the developer is offering the AppImage package and there is no difficulty for installing the ODrive on Linux.
|
||
|
||
Simple download the latest ODrive AppImage package from developer github page using **wget Command**.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ wget https://github.com/liberodark/ODrive/releases/download/0.1.3/odrive-0.1.3-x86_64.AppImage
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You have to set executable file permission to the ODrive AppImage file.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ chmod +x odrive-0.1.3-x86_64.AppImage
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Simple run the following ODrive AppImage file to launch the ODrive GUI for further setup.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ ./odrive-0.1.3-x86_64.AppImage
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You might get the same window like below when you ran the above command. Just hit the **`Next`** button for further setup.
|
||

|
||
|
||
Click **`Connect`** link to add a Google drive account.
|
||
![][6]
|
||
|
||
Enter your email id which you want to setup a Google Drive account.
|
||
![][7]
|
||
|
||
Enter your password for the given email id.
|
||
![][8]
|
||
|
||
Allow ODrive (Open Drive) to access your Google account.
|
||
![][9]
|
||
|
||
By default, it will choose the folder location. You can change if you want to use the specific one.
|
||
![][10]
|
||
|
||
Finally hit **`Synchronize`** button to start download the files from Google Drive to your local system.
|
||
![][11]
|
||
|
||
Synchronizing is in progress.
|
||
![][12]
|
||
|
||
Once synchronizing is completed. It will show you all files downloaded.
|
||
Once synchronizing is completed. It’s shows you that all the files has been downloaded.
|
||
![][13]
|
||
|
||
I have seen all the files were downloaded in the mentioned directory.
|
||
![][14]
|
||
|
||
If you want to sync any new files from local system to Google Drive. Just start the `ODrive` from the application menu but it won’t actual launch the application. But it will be running in the background that we can able to see by using the ps command.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ ps -df | grep odrive
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
![][15]
|
||
|
||
It will automatically sync once you add a new file into the google drive folder. The same has been checked through notification menu. Yes, i can see one file was synced to Google Drive.
|
||
![][16]
|
||
|
||
GUI is not loading after sync, and i’m not sure this functionality. I will check with developer and will add update based on his input.
