GoogleSimpleClient

Simplifies the usage of google-api-client and provides a command line tool for finding and getting documents from Google Drive.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'google-simple-client'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install google-simple-client

Enable Google drive. Make sure that you enable both the Drive API and the Drive SDK. Make sure you use Client ID for installed applications.

session = GoogleSimpleClient::Session.new({
      client_id: 'cid',
      client_secret: 'secret',
      email: 'email',
      password: 'password',
      verbose: true
    })
session.authenticate
pdf = session.get 'title', 'pdf'

Supported formats are (at least): 'pdf', 'html', 'csv', 'txt' etc.

$ google-simple-client [options] title

Options are ...
    -f, --format FORMAT              Format of the file to get
    -v, --verbose                    Log to standard output.
    -V, --version                    Display the program version.
    -h, --help                       Display this help message.P

It is also possible to set the options to Session.new in a configuration file called ~/.google-simple-client or $HOME/.google-simple-client. The format of the file is YAML. Example:

#.google-simple-client

client_id: cid
client_secret: secret
email: email
password: password

Command line parameters and code parameters override the configuration file options as expected.
