Total Commander

Hi!

A new plugin is now available via "Add plugins" button in Total Commander for Android: Google Drive. To install it, you need to scroll to the end of the web page and click on "Or try the Google Drive beta plugin.".

This plugin needs the Google Play Store and Google Play Services installed on the device, because it uses the GMail account stored on the Android device to access the Google Drive account.

The plugin can upload and download files, and convert documents on the Drive to various formats (use the <Settings> button).

Thank you. It works perfectly here (I did not use the convert option though).

Thanks for trying it! I just checked the Google API console for statistics, and there seem to be quite a lot of error 500 reports (=internal server error) when trying to upload a file (method "drive.files.insert").

Did anyone encounter any problems uploading a file? If yes, could you send me details about what happened? Thanks!

Same here, no problems (Nexus 10, Android 4.3).

Thanks for trying it! Did anyone test the uploading/downloading of "Google Docs" documents, e.g. spreadsheets, word processing files etc.?

Yes I did, sorry not to report sooner.

No issues encountered. Works great!

SkyDrive next?

(Samsung Note 8 w/4.1.2)

I have already written a SkyDrive plugin, but I can't publish it as long as I don't know how to call it. Microsoft lost a trademark lawsuit against Sky Broadcasting UK and has to rename their service. The problem is that once an app has its internal name on Google Play, that name cannot be changed, otherwise updates would stop working.

Thank you for the plugin.
Can I exclude files in Trash from the list of files shown by the plugin?

Unfortunately the ignore list doesn't currently work with plugins, sorry.

Thank you. It works perfectly here

LG P700 4.0.3

Unfortunately the ignore list doesn't currently work with plugins, sorry.

Can you show the Trash like a folder?

OK, after some research I found out how to not list files which are in the trash: I just need to change the query string from
q='"+pathId+"'+in+parents
to
q='"+pathId+"'+in+parents+and+trashed=false

This will just hide the files in trash permanently, so they will not be accessible from Android. Please try beta 2 from the same location (via "+" button).

Thanks a lot, beta 2 is OK, trash files are hidden.

Thanks for trying it!

Tried it and no problem found so far. It's really quick and now I don't need an extra application to access Google Drive.

Used it to copy files from my phone, delete files from there and bring some info from drive to local SD.

Nicely implemented.
