# Grive

Grive is an open-source Google Drive client.

## Installing

Grive can be installed from the grive package, available in the AUR.

## Setup

Chose a directory, e.g. `~/Grive`, that you want to sync with Google Drive. Files in Google Drive will be copied into this directory, and files added to this directory will be copied to Drive.

In a terminal, change to the directory and run

    grive -a

and follow the on-screen instructions.

## Use

When you want to sync files, change to your Grive directory and run

    grive

Grive does not have a daemon mode; you need to run it each time you want to sync.
