gsync Usage:

Open eljejer opened this issue 10 years ago • 10 comments

After setting up gsync on a Lunix/Debian NAS I encounter an initial problem using gsync command; every command I give gsync gives Usage error, as for example in:

Skoskapet:~/Leo/tmp$ gsync --authenticate Usage: gsync [options]... ...

What can be wrong?

Did you install using "pip"? gsync version 0.1.14 (on PyPi) is not the same from GitHub and it doesn't support "authenticate" yet.

If you wanna use GitHub version (development) use this:

git clone https://github.com/iwonbigbro/gsync.git
cd gsync
python setup.py install

Same problem here. Why is there a difference between the pip installation and the installation with setup.py (the do show the same version after installation)?

Same problem here, i am using Arch Linux, and installing from AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python2-gsync/

Why need install using python? AUR provide a supervised installation in which allows me to easily remove all later. Why the authenticate need be maked in that weird way?

My mistake, i have authenticated using the way/syntax '$gsync drive:/// ~/Google\ Drive/' and it work.

I installed the developer version hoping it'd fix my no files only directories issue but it hasn't. How can I uninstall the developer version easily?

If I recall correctly, you can use the same commands you used to install it, but replace "install" with "uninstall".

python setup.py uninstall says its not found, what I ended up doing is installing it through pip, then uninstalling it through pip, hope that removed everything

Try doing "make uninstall" in the git directory, as root. It looks like the Makefile supports this, and it should clean things up much more cleanly than removing it with another version of the installer would.

root@:~/gsync# make uninstall make: *** No rule to make target ,', needed byuninstall_,'. Stop.

Did you initially install it as root, or as your user? (I'm not a developer, so I'm largely taking shots in the dark, here.)
