A Go command-line utility for uploading, downloading, listing, and managing files on Google Drive, with optional AES-256 client-side encryption. It is not a synchronization tool and does not reconcile concurrent edits across machines.

Use cases

  • upload a local folder to google drive from the command line
  • download files from google drive to my computer
  • encrypt files before uploading to google drive
  • list files in a google drive folder via terminal
  • check how much space a drive folder uses
  • scripted backups to google drive

When to choose

  • you want simple scripted transfers between local disk and Google Drive
  • you need client-side AES-256 encryption for files stored on Drive
  • you prefer a lightweight CLI over a GUI sync client

When to avoid

  • you need automatic two-way sync across multiple machines with conflict resolution
  • you need actively maintained software with recent releases
  • you want a graphical interface
