Problem with google drive about opendirectorydownloader HOT 15 CLOSED

I've updated it, they really really made a mess of it. It was like 18 steps, now it's 24.. Or.. I created a new 'workaround' for this with the Quickstart option (only 6 steps, no additional input needed).

https://github.com/KoalaBear84/OpenDirectoryDownloader/blob/master/README.md

Please check it out and let me know!

from opendirectorydownloader.

Hmm.. You are right, looks like I broke it, or Google did. I'll investigate!

from opendirectorydownloader.

No, my OpenDirectoryDownloader.GoogleDrive.json file was empty.

Looks like you have another issue, that this file does not contain this:

{
  "installed": {
	... Your values
  }
}

Could you check that out?

from opendirectorydownloader.

My OpenDirectoryDownloader.GoogleDrive.json file contain this :

{
  "type": "service_account",
  "project_id": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
  "private_key_id": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
  "private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\nXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n",
  "client_email": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
  "client_id": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
  "auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
  "token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
  "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
  "client_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/robot/v1/metadata/x509/serviceaccountXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
}

Indeed I don't have the "installed" line, but I have followed the instructions to generate this json, so I don't know why that value isn't in my file.

from opendirectorydownloader.

Wow, why doesn't Github notified me of your answer.

Hmm, that's strange. I guess Google has updated the generated "credentials" file structure..

Could you try the following format (fill in your values at the XXXX's).

{
  "installed": {
    "client_id": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "project_id": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
    "token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
    "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
    "client_secret": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "redirect_uris": [ "urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob", "http://localhost" ]
  }
}

I'll try later to generate a new file to check if Google has changed their structure.

from opendirectorydownloader.

I tried the format you asked for, and I don't have the mistake anymore !

On the other hand, the application shows me that the indexing is finished, but all the values show 0 while the folder is not empty.

I tried with other gdrive folders, with a single file inside or other nested folders and the result is the same.

from opendirectorydownloader.

Hmm, that is not supposed to happen indeed.

I'll try the one myself later.

from opendirectorydownloader.

It is working as expected 😮

Could you check the OpenDirectoryDownloader.log ?

from opendirectorydownloader.

Here's a screenshot of the log and the file if you need it :

Thanks, looks like it is another error. And it looks like I didn't correctly handle errors on that part.

Made a new version, please try this one and see what error it really is.

https://github.com/KoalaBear84/OpenDirectoryDownloader/releases/tag/v1.4.0.9

from opendirectorydownloader.

I tested with version "v1.4.0.9", and it worked fine :)

I didn't get any error message this time and I didn't change anything in my OpenDirectoryDownloader.GoogleDrive.json.

In my OpenDirectoryDownloader.GoogleDrive.json generated at the beginning I didn't have a "secret_client" line.

To get the "secret_client" I had to create an OAuth 2.0 client ID instead of a Service Account, and I tested a scan directly after creating this ID and completing the OpenDirectoryDownloader.GoogleDrive.json as previously asked.

Maybe there is a delay before you can use the API after the creation of these identifiers?

Unfortunately I don't have any error messages that explain why it didn't work before, but it works now, thanks!

from opendirectorydownloader.

@leodomi @KoalaBear84 Can anyone please help me with Getting secret_client ? I am on the latest version, I have OpenDirectoryDownloader.GoogleDrive.json file with the content I got from json credentials file from console.cloud site. I am on the OAuth Consent Screen and there are too many options to be filled in there ? I am having doubts. Would really appreciate any help I can get.

from opendirectorydownloader.

English is not my first language so the name of tabs and other things may not be accurate

Choose "User type" --> Internal
Then in the next page, just put a name in the textbox under "internal", and then you can save at the bottom
Go back to "credential", "create a credential", OAuth ID CLient", "desktop app (?) (the 6th choice in the list), "create"

And you will have your secret client

@KoalaBear84 I just checked, the updated long method in README it works , without any issues.

• Detailed version of how I verified: I followed the longer method present in Google Drive section of README. Everything is correct. I tested on this public link https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1cH7YbnPAh8IOxjf7FBMgCTp9VtayjqCK.
• On running for the first time, I entered the GDrive public link given above, I got the OAuth prompt with a warning that app isn't verified, proceed only if you are aware, so I advanced, selected a google account and after that I got the total size of the directory with accurate description of file items as well.
• Here is a screenshot of it in action:

Thanks @AnmolTomer for your good check and report. I'll close the issue 👍
