Gnome shell extension for basic Grive2 functionalities based on Argos

grive-argos

Integrates basic Grive2 functionality into Gnome Shell as an extension.

Installation

Copy the content of icons to your ~/.local/share/icons. The folder grive_argos and the python script grive-argos.py is supposed to be copied to ~/.config/argos. Also make sure to make grive-argos.py executable such that Argos can pick it up.

Usage

In the drop-down menu you will find the three functionalities synchronize, push and pull.

• synchronize runs the command grive -P in your local Google Drive folder.
• pull runs the command grive -P -f in your local Google Drive folder.
• push runs the command grive -P -u in your local Google Drive folder.

Depending on whether you set the option dry-run, in each of the commands, the argument --dry-run is passed. See the grive documentation for more information

To set your Google drive folder and whether or not to perform a dry-run, you can open the settings dialog via the Settings entry in the drop down menu.
