On Terminal commands to install Google Drive on Ubuntu – Grive2
To install Grive2 in Ubuntu, Linux Mint and derivatives by using the main WebUpd8 PPA, use the following commands:
"sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grive"
Yes, It is true that there isn’t a native google drive client for linux yet, so you couldn’t get app on Software Center. And ways to install in 12.04 and 14.04 are somewhat different.
Compared to the original “Grive”, Grive2 comes with the following changes:
- supports the new Drive REST API
- added partial sync
- major code refractoring: a lot of dead code removed, JSON-C is not used any more, API-specific code is split from non-API-specific
- some stability fixes
- slightly reduce number of syscalls when reading local files
- bug fixes
- continuously waiting for changes in file system or in Google Drive to occur and upload. A sync is only performed when you run Grive, and it calculates checksums for all files every time;
- symbolic links;
- Google documents.
Using Google Drive on Linux – Grive2
"~$ mkdir -p ~/grive
~$ cd ~/grive
~$ grive -a"
After running the command above, an URL should be displayed in the
terminal – copy this URL and paste it in a web browser. In the newly
loaded page, you’ll be asked to give Grive permission to access your
Google Drive and after clicking “Allow access”, an authentication code
will be displayed – copy this code and paste it in the terminal where
you ran Grive2.
Now to sync Google Drive folder every time, go to that folder and run grive.
