Google Drive plugin is on the way...

THIS THREAD MOVED HERE: http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=35985

Google Drive pre-release is finally out!
(I had some spare time to work on it)

You can download it from my server (I'll try to update it with latest releases)

DOWNLOAD LINK:
http://brooksman.net/downloads/download.php?file=gdplugin_latest.zip

This is work-in-progress, but basic functionality (e.g. dir view, file copy) is already working.....

I hope it won't be the heaviest plugin for totalcmd (11Mb) - anyway I tried to reduce the weight as much as I could, but because web access (for login) was needed, I had no choice...

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
* Install as regular totalcmd plugin
* Copy libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll to TC root folder
* Restart TC

ISSUES
* Compatability problem with SFTP plugin: different versions of libeay32.dll in TC root folder are used

FUTURE ROADMAP
* Caching mechanism (partly implemented, but not yet active)
* Support for several accounts

COMMENTS
* <INI PATH>\fsplugin.ini is used to store intermediate token to skip login each time. You can read your <INI PATH> from TC->Help->About

Comments, bug reports and feature suggestions are welcomed!

Enjoy,
Paul

Hi guys,

I am a fan of Total Commander and I started working on standalone Google Drive plugin (that won't be dependent on other software).

It is not an easy task, but I believe it will go ok.

Please respond if it's only me or you also miss something like this.
Functionality requests are welcomed as well.

@akopalsky +1 from me.

I wonder how you solved the OAuth authentication for Google Drive.

akopalsky · Post by *akopalsky » 2012-10-11, 15:15 UTC

@ghisler,
I already implemented a basic OAuth2 process (I have a web widget popup asking for login credentials). There is an issue with token timeouts, but I am considering a workaround for this....

BTW, I am also planning to implement multi-account capability (maybe not with an alpha release) in which a root folder will hold a list of different accounts

@hlloyge,

I am not working with SkyDrive at the moment, but following brief search I noticed this one - skydrivewfx @ codeplex_com (for some reason I can't post URLs)

AFAIR this one started to have some troubles and wasn't updated for a while.

wow gr8 job, tanks a lot.

just a suggestion, how about statically linking to the Qt?
as this is Windows and Qt isn't natively supported (times like these I wish I still used SUSE) we get too many dll's, you can take a look at this open source project http://sourceforge.net/projects/qbittorrent (they use statically linked Qt for the windows builds) and by statically linking the Qt you might end up with a smaller wfx as most of the size goes to the Qt runtime, I'm not a developer but I do know recompiling Qt for statical linking can be a pain so it's just an idea.
Any chance for mediafire with their free 50GiB account they got me hooked they do provide a dev api

Where are the log-in settings stored?
How do you log-out?
I thought it used ie's cache and cookies I cleared those but I still can't use a different account.

Didn't notice an ini file where is the username/password cached?

I can statically link the Qt, but it won't reduce too much, because I use Qt WebKit to load the login screen, and I plan to use it for additional functionality in future as well. I guess it was possible to use IE instead, but I was afraid for compatibility issues with different versions.
Static linking has licensing issues as well (not sure)

Username and password are not stored locally (it'd be a real security flow), the application is not receiving it as well (it is passed directly to Google).

Some middle token is stored in fsplugin.ini file which is stored in TC INI files directory (you can check your exact path by going to Help->About). You can delete it to get login screen again.
It is a good idea to implement Disconnect button, which will do it automatically

akopalsky,

Congrats to your first release, i will test it thoroughly maybe late this week.

yes, you can only statically link QT libs if you have a commercial license.

I don't mind the size of the extra libs.

i am also interested in developing a tool and connect it to cloud, maybe i'll have questions for you.

i checked http://brooksman.net/ i think you should write a small page about the plugin and a contact email " mind the spam " : )

later and my regards
ehab

Bug in TC or GoogleDrive? "Access violation at address.."

1) start fresh TC
2) start GoogleDrive, login window appears, hit close
3) start an sftp session

TC opens the sftp session

so there can be a problem/conflict with the libeay32.dll ssleay32.dll?

i must close TC and use my sftp back.

akopalsky · Post by *akopalsky » 2012-12-10, 13:51 UTC

I noticed this problem as well, but didn't figured out the solution yet:

This is NOT a bug with sftp or with google drive plugins.

The problem is with libeay32.dll ssleay32.dll versions: SFTP works with one version and GoogleDrive with another.
These files are required for SSL support and you cannot put them in plugin folder, because they must reside in executable (totalcmd.exe) folder.....

ehab · Post by *ehab » 2012-12-10, 13:52 UTC

can you still use the tc version for GoogleDrive?

akopalsky · Post by *akopalsky » 2012-12-10, 14:08 UTC

There is no "TC version" - TC is not using those files by default. Sftp plugin asks to copy those files to TC root as I do. I'll try to find a way to make compatible (I know that many people use SFTP so i is more my problem than his)
