Streamline authentication process

Open jcline opened this issue 12 years ago • 2 comments

Requiring all these different files is a bit obnoxious for new users. There should be a way to help streamline this setup process.

At a minimum, reducing the number of files to one would be good. Also, it would be nice if the manual authentication step were reduced to a one time thing, perhaps storing some information in a user read/write only folder... ~/.fuse-google-drive/auth_mntpt or $XDG_DATA_HOME/fuse-google-drive/auth_mntpt?

I agree. I'd really like to be able to have it mount the drive on startup. Every time I mount, it asks me to connect to a webpage and copy/paste a code.

Maybe you can borrow the authentication mechanism from grive (https://github.com/match065/grive)?
