grive2 : updated Google Drive app

Post by itdaboyz »

Hi,

Why not update the Google Drive app ?
It's outdated and doesn't work as expected (see : http://forum.asustor.com/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=7613)

This fork uses the new Drive REST API and support partial sync : https://github.com/vitalif/grive2

Thanks Asustor for looking at this ;)

Hi Lanimul and itdaboyz,

Thanks for your kind suggestions!!! Actually we have studied Grive2 2 months ago and found that there are still some major drawbacks with it so we decided to make our own Google Drive sync. We have been developing it ever since and we hope to provide a new Google Drive sync to you around May!

If you are indeed develoing your own Google Drive sync, have you considered releasing it as open source? I'm sure there would be a lot of interest in the OS community to benefit from and contirube to such a project.
Hi, I'm new here. Looking to be active in the community and help with development :).

Hi itdaboyz,

Sorry for replying late and thanks for the kind reminder! We have finished the new version of google drive already after many versions of works during this period of time. We are now doing massive files testing (500,000 to 1000000 files). We hope to release it by next week if we can pass this extreme test.
