Google drive in Alt-F

[mk360]

Hi,


Is anyone using Google drive to synchronize files with alt-f? what
client can I use and is available in Alt-F packages? if not it is on
entware-ng or FFP and what is the best option? I never used these
repositories...


Thanks!

mk.

I'd loove to know

Maybe rclone? Will that work with Alt-F?

Did/will rclone update to use the latest G Drive protocols considering Google drive client is being phased out ?

Nevermind, cursory Googling reveals they support Team Drives which would likely mean they're up to date.

There is a (command line based) grive2 in entware:

Grive can be considered still beta or pre-beta quality. It simply downloads all the files in your Google Drive into the current directory. After you make some changes to the local files, run grive again and it will upload your changes back to your Google Drive. New files created locally or in Google Drive will be uploaded or downloaded respectively. Deleted files will also be "removed". Currently Grive will NOT destroy any of your files: it will only move the files to a directory named .trash or put them in the Google Drive trash. You can always recover them.

There are a few things that Grive does not do at the moment:

continously wait for changes in file system or in Google Drive to occur and upload. A sync is only performed when you run Grive.

symbolic links support.

support for Google documents.

rclone is (command line) and is also available in entware:

I had to update my root SSL certificates but it is working.

Can you create a wiki type Step by step How-To get it working with Google Drive for example?

Thanks!!

This is what I did, don't know if you will need to do the same.

Install entware-ng from Alt-F web interface

Install rclone from Packages>Entware-ng

ssh to box and update SSL Certificates due to error x509 from configuring rclone Link

mkdir -p /etc/ssl/certs/
curl -o /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bagder/ca-bundle/master/ca-bundle.crt
ntpclient -s -h pool.ntp.org

Configure rclone for Google Drive Link (I elected to set up my own Client ID Link)

Test to see if could see my files 

List directories in top level of your drive

rclone lsd remote:

remote: is the name you gave the drive when you configured rclone. You must have the : at the end

set up a test copy  /home/source is the location of the folder or file you want to transfer.  remote:backup is the google drive folder called backup, if there are any spaces it would be remote:"backup folder"  you can set this up to go the other way as well.

rclone copy /home/source remote:backup

My last step was to set up a cron job to do this every week from the Alt-f web interface Services>System> cron configure

hope this helps you. if you have questions do a search.

[Nicolas Desveaux]

Brilliant man thanks a lot!

Joao how tough would it be to give this its own little configure window?

That shouldn't survive a reboot, you have to create the folder in disk first.

aufs.sh -n
mkdir -p /Alt-F/etc/ssl/certs
aufs.sh -r

rclone searches the certificate file as (among other dirs/names) /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem, so you only need to provide a link to the default one

ln -sf /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.crt /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem # reuse the Alt-F bundled certificates. Must use also the above "aufs.sh" snippet

To maintain the box clock accurate, it's best to start the ntp in server mode, Services->Network->ntp, Configure

It is an interactive process involving a browser, not easy (or possible) to automate.

I think that for the command-line handicapped users the best option is to use and configure rclone on a desktop machine, possibly with a GUI such as rclonebrowser  and copy the generated configuration file to the box, see https://rclone.org/remote_setup

Hey Chad,

I followed your guide and can now download my G Drive to my NAS.

Couple of questions

I got it using cron to do it weekly. I'd love it if it could sync only the changes. Right now it seems to redo the whole drive every week. I had around 800MB on the NAS on first sync. Then I added a 45KB file and did the copy command again and interrupted it as soon as I saw the file appear locally but after checking the drive had 300MB only.

Also if it would sync only changes I'd have Cron sync changes every minute to behave more like the Google Drive Client .. maybe

Thanks!

[Jc Connell]

You could try rclone's sync command rather than copy:

[Nicolas Desveaux]

Excellent, thank you JC will give this a go.

I'm trying using Grive to sync my Google Drive with my DNS320L, but it
seems that Grive uses too much CPU and RAM so my NAS shutdown by
overheating everytime LOL

I haven't started using Alt-F on the DNS-320 yet, but I've used rclone on Arch running with a Marvel Kirkwood chipset. The two devices are similarly spec'd. 

You could try configuring a swap file on one of the internal HDDs or a USB drive/disk. It helped in my case.

You should check the clearing space around your box (particularly the bottom and rear space), allowing for the fan to exhaust the heat, and check that the fan is indead working.

You can also change the mode how the fan runs and change the power off temperature limit under Services->System->sysctrl, Configure

I've checked the fan conf and it was set to low. It explains a lot =)
