    2. sudo pip install google-api-python-client
    3. sudo pip install gdcmdtools
  • For Ubuntu Linux
    1. sudo apt-get install python-pip
    2. sudo pip install google-api-python-client
    3. sudo pip install gdcmdtools
  • After the installation, you will see gd*.py under /usr/local/bin.
• Ubuntu Linux PPA
  1. sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ctf/gdcmdtools
  2. sudo apt-get update
  3. sudo apt-get install python-gdcmdtools

API Setup

• Create a new project for this tool to access your Google drive

  • Visit https://console.developers.google.com/ , create project, name it anything you like, ex: gdcmdtools.

• Enable the following Google APIs in "APIs & auth/APIs"

  • Drive API
  • Fusion Tables API

• Make sure your application has an application name in "APIs & auth/Credentials/OAuthConsent screen"

  • Find "PRODUCT NAME" field. Make sure it's not blank.

• Grant access to Google Drive for gdcmdtools in "APIs & auth/Credentials"

  1. Click "Create new Client ID", APPLICATION TYPE: Installed application, INSTALLED APPLICATION TYPE: Other
  2. Check the section "Client ID for native application", click at the "Download JSON".
  3. Execute gdauth.py in a terminal and give the downloaded secret file just downloaded as parameter: $ gdauth.py client_secrets.json
  4. You will see message like: INFO:gdcmdtools.base:Please visit the URL in your browser: https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?scope=....
  5. Visit the URL with browser and allow the app accessing your Google Drive.
  6. Copy the code you see in your browser, then back to the terminal, paste the code and hit enter.
  7. Done, you won't be asked for the code again unless the credential expired.
