Anyone interested in working on an objective-C or python interface to the file system of the Google Apps (Pro, Edu, etc.)? I would like to be able to provision sites within the Google Apps domain that we have obtained according to the needs of our organization. Being able to mount the sites as a file system would greatly enhance that.
I have gotten as far as getting the "goofs" project to work under OS X 10.5 (Leopard) with MacFUSE and the fuse-python bindings, but the resulting goofs does not show up under the finder. Perhaps a little more tweaking will work for solving that problem. (Haven't fooled with the internals of the goofs file system yet; perhaps adding a volume flag as mentioned in the sshfs MacFUSE example will help there.) But that is oriented toward individual Google accounts, and not the App suite, so there is more work to do in that direction also. If there is interest, I can try to post the steps that I followed to get to this point. Also interesting in this direction is the "uprgae" python project from the University of Puerto Rico, which integrates use of goofs.py but does not do anything special with it. I would prefer a Mac-native client that can just let us mount and manipulate the contents of the Google Apps areas via the Finder, or at least provide access to and listing of these files, customized for a directory structure that matches that used by the Google Apps suite. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacFUSE" group.
