如何从计算引擎访问谷歌驱动器

Question

I haven't used GCE before but was planning on using it for some CPU bound R scripts.

I see that on the.network section of pricing it says there is free egress and ingress with google drive. I don't see any documentation on how to access my google drive from within a GCE. Is there documentation on this that someone can point me towards?

Answer 1

I recommend using Google Cloud Storage instead of drive. Drive is a more consumer oriented (and expensive) product. Its extra features are geared towards file management and not moving around data blobs which is what you would need when programming.

If you really want to use it you can drive, you can find the API documentation at https://developers.google.com/drive/

Drive is NOT part of the Google Cloud Platform and there are no special instructions or integrations other than the network pricing.

Answer 2

据我所知，除了使用像gdrive这样的 3rd 方工具之外，没有开箱即用的方法可以从计算引擎中做到这一点，它可以在 Linux、Windows CE 中使用。

Answer 3

As far as I can tell, there's no official solution. However, there is an open-source project, google-drive-ocamlfuse , which allows you to mount Google Drive onto your VM without much effort. Perform the installation as described on the main page, and then follow these steps for headless usage and authorization.

Answer 4

In addition to the above, My Drive can be accessed in a GCP Linux compute instance via several other tools: https://itsfoss.com/use-google-drive-linux/

The details of how the access is performed varies, but the end result is that My Drive will essentially appear in your Linux file system.

Be careful, however, because these programs may have bugs that can delete everything in My Drive (I had this happen with InSync -- I did the trial run then uninstalled and deleted the InSync folder, then later re-installed. After re-install InSync saw that the folder was deleted, so it thought I wanted to delete everything in My Drive -- that was a very bad day.)
