KIO GDrive is a KIO slave that enables KIO-aware applications (such as Dolphin, Kate or Gwenview) to access and edit Google Drive files on the cloud.

Installation

Arch Linux

pacman -S kio-gdrive

Exherbo

cave resolve kio-gdrive

Gentoo

emerge kde-misc/kio-gdrive

Debian/KDE neon/Kubuntu (and other Debian derivatives)

sudo apt install kio-gdrive

openSUSE

sudo zypper in kio-gdrive

FreeBSD

pkg install kio-gdrive

Fedora GNU/Linux

dnf install kio-gdrive

Usage

Open the Network folder in Dolphin and click on "Google Drive".

Or you can use the command line, such as:

Build from source

Build on Linux

Assuming that you have all the dependencies already installed, just do:

git clone https://invent.kde.org/network/kio-gdrive.git && cd kio-gdrive
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$(qtpaths --install-prefix)" ..
make && make test
sudo make install
kdeinit5 # or just re-login

Warning

You can install into a different prefix, as long as it is the same prefix kdeinit5 has been installed into.


If you have problems building from source, feel free to ask for help in the #kde-fm IRC channel.
