Download Google documents to files
Project description
gdoc-down
API and command line program to save Google documents, presentations, and worksheets in a local Google Drive / Backup & Sync directory to to local files.
gdoc-down supports several formats:
CSV (.csv)
EPUB (.epub)
Excel workbook (.xlsx)
HTML (.html)
Image (.png, .jpg, .svg)
LaTeX (.tex)
Open Office document (.odt)
Open Office presentation (.odp)
Open Office workbook (.ods)
Plain text file (.txt)
Portable document format (.pdf)
Powerpoint presentation (.pptx)
Rich text document (.rtf)
TSV (.tsv)
Word document (.docx)
gdoc-down also has special features for handling .gdoc files that contain LaTeX:
gdoc-down ignores all images. This allows the user to place images inside the Google document for convenience and to use \includegraphics to embed images in compile PDF files.
gdoc-down will convert all Google document comments to PDF comments.
gdoc-down ignores all page breaks.
The first time gdoc-down is called, gdoc-down will request access to the user’s Google account. This will create a client.json file in the users home directory (~/.gdoc_down/client.json).
