Homebrew RELEASE LGMA (Use Google Drive with DZ to download your games)

[Miqote]

This POC (Proof of Concept) will allow you to access your Google Drive via DZ without any other software on your computer, and will work for -all- versions of Google Drive (Student/Unlimited/Business, etc). A GUI version is also completed but doesn't work due to the library not working in .NET Standard right now. When it's fixed, I'll release a GUI version.

This also should theoretically work on Linux via dotnet and the included DLL, but I haven't tested it personally. YMMV.

Setup:

1. Complete the first step here (https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/quickstart/python) and rename that file to "client_id.json".
2. Extract the ZIP from releases and put the "client_id.json" with wherever you extracted them.
3. Open LGMA.exe and follow the directions. You will receive a pop-up in your browser to link your email to the Application you created in the first step. This will only happen once.
4. Add a new entry to your switch/dz/locations.conf as shown in the program
5. Open DZ and it should show up there.

Ughhhhhh, .NET Core. Thanks, I'll fix it in a sec. Second release is live, should fix the issue. Unfortunately, it also jumped the filesize from 500KB to 29MB. #JustNetCoreThings

Will this only work with your own personal Gdrive? Or can someone else's drive that is set to public

he said if you can log in to it.

It will only allow you to access the contents of the Google Drive you own - So whatever you see in http://drive.google.com.

I don't believe it works with "Shared with Me", but I'll see if I can get the API to let me do that too.

Would it be possible to do this with MEGA.nz as well? That’s where I store all my nsp files

Actually it apparently is possible and I was able to get it half working as a POC. I've made an issue here asking for support and hopefully they'll put it in. https://github.com/FubarDevelopment/FtpServer/issues/40 If not, I can try to do it myself but that'll be a gigantic pain, but worth it.

I'm not sure offhand, but doesn't MEGA cap you at like 5GB each hour?

But then you run into "too many downloads" issues, best for ppl to copy to their drive.

Hmm ive seen some google drive accounts still open but youre probably right on the long run.
Anyways its still good if we can do it for the moment

 

[Nerdtendo]

Didn't this kill Ninja?

For a second, I thought this was a joke because of the name. Lol.

Hey very good point that I obviously overlooked. Seems unnecessary as the links would reach download quota so fast...I'll gladly make a copy into my personal drive to save the storage space

it does if you're a free user. I have a yearly subscription to them, so I basically have no data cap for downloading

if you add files to your drive from someone else, it works fine. from time to time.

God damnit, I JUST got finishing packing up a customized rclone package for everyone to do this same thing xD Yours looks easier to use though, thanks... lol

P.S.

If you see "something you like" in someone else's Google Drive, right-click it (ctrl click for multiple) and choose "copy/add to my drive" and when the little popup appears click "organize" and you can send it to whatever folder you want.
