How to sync FreeBSD with Google drive

[bdario58]

Hello everybody,

I'm a newbie on FreeBSD so I'm sorry for my question.

My goal is to have a sync with google drive. I have FreeBSD 10.2 and I would like to have a sync with my google drive.
Looking in google I found rclone (rclone-v1.32-freebsd-amd64.zip) and I believe it's fine for me so I follow the instructions found into the *.zip file but I'm not able to install it. Same problem with gdrive and unison.

I'm just able to install package using pkg install packagename

Thank so much for your kind help.

Best regards,
Dario

You could take a look at the net/grive port. I've no idea if it is any good, I'm just aware that it exists.

If you are looking for rclone port.

See PR 205462.

Hi Murph

I took a look for grive, it's no longer supported and it doesn't perform synchro.

Thank you very much for your reply

Hi cpm

Sorry but I'm not able to install it, this is my first time with freebsd FreeBSD.

Isn't there any way to install rclone using pkg?

Thank you for your help

Is not possible ATM, because rclone port hasn't yet landed into the ports tree.

You're going to have to wait quite some time:

All these go ports will land into the ports tree after Jan 1, 2017 when 9.X will retire.

you can extract the zip (here) and install rclone manually:

rclone (binary) in /usr/local/sbin/rclone and
rclone.1 (manpage) in /usr/local/man/man1/rclone.1
