google-drive-ocamlfuse is a FUSE filesystem written in OCaml that mounts Google Drive as a local filesystem on Linux. It provides full read/write access to files, read-only export of Google Docs, multiple account support, and Unix permissions.

Use cases

• mount google drive as a local folder on linux
• access google drive files from the terminal
• read google docs as local files
• use google drive with command-line tools and scripts
• back up files directly to google drive
• mount multiple google drive accounts
• access team drives from the filesystem

When to choose

• you need Google Drive accessible as a regular Linux filesystem
• you want to use standard Unix tools (rsync, grep, editors) on Drive files
• you need multiple accounts, Team Drives, or service account support
• you prefer a lightweight native FUSE mount over a sync client

When to avoid

• you are on Windows or macOS without FUSE support
• you need full offline sync with a local mirror
• you need read/write editing of Google Docs natively (they are read-only exports)
• you need a GUI file manager integration
