mtojek / gdriver Goto Github PK

Hi mtojek,
I'm building something with the Google Drive API and wanted to see the idiomatic way to download a file, when I stumbled upon this project.
If I'm not mistaken, then you forgot to close the resp.Body in downloadFileData(), which leds to a resource leak. More specificially, the connection isn't reused and thus the file descriptor isn't freed.

If the returned error is nil, the Response will contain a non-nil Body which the user is expected to close. If the Body is not both read to EOF and closed, the Client's underlying RoundTripper (typically Transport) may not be able to re-use a persistent TCP connection to the server for a subsequent "keep-alive" request. more

To fix this, add defer resp.Body.Close() after you check the error of ...Download().
Have a nice day! :)

Hello i really liked your server but i want to download some shared folder files but the thing is i cannot access the Anyone link. The files are restricted to specific users. Even if i have auth from the same id i cannot download them using your gdriver program what can i do please tell me. it gives this error

Read folder metadata for "17bOYXU3lpoDlg-yYgDPea_frqWbAEY6g"
Error: downloading files failed: can't read folder metadata (ID: 17bOYXU3lpoDlg-yYgDPea_frqWbAEY6g): googleapi: Error 404: File not found: 17bOYXU3lpoDlg-yYgDPea_frqWbAEY6g., notFound

I have a 145TB Google Drive account with lots of videos which is accessed frequently and always maxes out daily bandwidth.

Using this utility, through the Drive API, will I have any limits regarding quotas per day and the amount of downloads I can do? The fact that the Google Drive account, web version, runs out of bandwidth for a while, will not affect the use of this tool?
