This is a simple python script for interacting with GemDrive servers. The available commands are described below:

ls

Prints a simple directory listing. Doesn't currently work for files.

./gemdrive_cli.py ls https://gemdrive.io

sync

Recursively makes a local directory structure match the given GemDrive directory.

To download to the current working directory:

./gemdrive_cli.py sync https://gemdrive.io/

Or specify a destination directory:

./gemdrive_cli.py sync https://gemdrive.io/ --out_dir out

Be sure to include the trailing '/', otherwise it will download it as a file.

Speaking of which, sync also works for downloading single files:

./gemdrive_cli.py sync https://gemdrive.io/gemdrive_logo.png

That is similar to running:

wget https://gemdrive.io/gemdrive_logo.png

or

curl https://gemdrive.io/gemdrive_logo.png > gemdrive_logo.png

sync limitations

• Currently uses only file size and modified time (to the second) to determine if a file already exists locally. If you must be sure they match, delete the local files first.
• Currently not optimized. Trees with lots of directories and small files will sync much slower.
