Storage Engine for Django Project based on Google Drive Personal Drive

Google Drive Personal Storage for Django

GDPS is a django app to provide Google Drive as a Storage Backeend for Django Project. It can be used to store the files in the user space (visible in the Web UI of Google Drive) while other librairies propose the use of Google Cloud Project to achieve the same results (with the downside of not being able to see the uploaded files).

Features

• Use your Personal Google Cloud Folder as a Storage Backend.
• Few views are added for Authorization with Google Drive and its renew (if you decide later to change the Google Account used).
• For convenience, few abstract models (abstract and on-demande obvisouly) are provided to add the functionnality of SoftDeletion to your project (which is important if you are manipulationg Files).
