gls
Manual for gls.
Featured IntroductionSince 2.0 we have split our utility in two, the first gls which provides ways of listing various documents and the second gcp, which allows you to copy files to-and-from your computer to the Google servers. gls does more than listing documents, it can filter the document list feed based on parameters that you provide, it's behaviour is quite close to that of ls apart from its sytax. The server string closely resembles scp, please read the documentation to Requirements
Tested under Mac OSX and Linux. Windows testing pending. Usagegls.py options username@gmail.com:/doctype/foldername/Pattern Both doctype and foldername are optional parameters, doctype may have the value of all, docs, sheets, slides, pdf If you provide a Pattern string the title of the document will be matched, an asterisk at the end of the Pattern string will make the title search non-exact. Parameters-p or --password to provide passwords in the command line -d or --debug to increase verbosity, prints Python error messages as well -h or --help to print out help screen Usage examplesList all documents, sheets, slides for username@gmail.com ./gls.py username@gmail.com:/ List all folders for username@gmail.com ./gls.py username@gmail.com:/folders List all sheets for username@gmail.com ./gls.py username@gmail.com:/sheets List all documents for username@gmail.com in the Documentation folder ./gls.py username@gmail.com:/docs/Documentation List all documents for username@gmail.com where the title contains the string GTE ./gls.py username@gmail.com:/docs/Documentation/GTE* List all objects in the folder Documentation for username@gmail.com ./gls.py username@gmail.com:/all/Documentation List all documents for username@gmail.com in all where the title contains the words Over ./gls.py username@gmail.com:/docs/all/Over* |

Hello,
As with the reports in issue 47 and 48 (http://code.google.com/p/gdatacopier/issues/detail?id=47, http://code.google.com/p/gdatacopier/issues/detail?id=48), I too receive a generic "failed" error message when attempting to run gls or gcp (2.1.1 version of gdatacopier). I've tested this on three separate systems, each with the same result:
All three of these system have two versions of the gdata Python API installed, as I've been using this application for awhile. This includes version 2.0.10, as shown below:
I commented out lines 174-176 of gls.py as suggested in issue 47 , and received the following output:
./gls-ed.py username@gmail.com:/ gls 2.1.1, document list utility. Copyright 2010 Eternity Technologies Released under the GNU/GPL v3 at <http://gdatacopier.googlecode.com> Password: Logging into Google server as username@gmail.com ... done.

I'm guessing that, as with issues 47 and 48, I need to somehow get gdatacopier to use the 2.x.x gdata python API, but I can't figure out how to do so.
Any help greatly appreciated.
p.s. - I planned to post this to the Google Group, but my membership request has been pending for a bit. I hesitate to post it as an 'issue' yet, because I doubt it is an issue with gdatacopier. Hope it's Ok to post here..
I think this might the same as every Ubuntu user faces with GData. I would recommend not installing gdata using apt which seems to be gdata 1.2.4 on your third system. Unfortunately there's no real way of importing a specific version of the gdata api in Python.
As for your first example, do you have two versions of Python? If you have two versions of Python, you might have accidentally compiled gdata against the non default version of Python.
Let me know and I am happy to help you sort this out.
Hello devraj, Thank you very much for your response. I actually did not install gdata thru apt the first time, but I did install it manually quite a long time ago. It's frustrating that I can't figure out how to have gdatacopier "point" at the newer gdata. You are right that I have two versions of Python also. I will try uninstalling the old version, and recompiling gdata. (unfortunately I am away from these systems for the weekend, so I'll try this on Monday)
thank you again.
I finally got it working!
Here's what I did: - removed python2.5 via Synaptic - re-installed gdata library (2.0.10 version); attempted gdatacopier - no success
- renamed / moved all existing files & directories related to gdata from within the python2.6/dist-packages/ directory - re-installed gdata library (2.0.10 version); attempted gdatacopier - success!
Thank you again for your help, and thank you for your work on this software.
Great. Thanks for posting your comments here. Hopefully others with the same problem find it useful.
Thanks for choosing GDataCopier, please keep an eye on the Roadmap.
I removed all gdata packages that came with Ubuntu (10.04.2 LTS) (this will uninstall Evolution, which I don't use anyway) and installed gdata (gdata-2.0.13) from the tarball and that worked for me.
