Write host public ip to Google Drive.
Project description
A service that writes the public ip address of the host computer to a file on Google Drive.
# after setting up ~/.config/ipgdrive/cfg.json
# setup a cronjob to write the public ip address to
# Google doc every 5 minutes
ipgdrive setupjob -m 5
1 Installation
pip install ipgdrive
2 Setup
To enable Google Drive access, follow the instructions here to create a service account with Google Drive access, and create a json key file for it.
Place this file in the ~/.config/ipgdrive/ folder, and rename it to google_drive_service_account_key.json.
Additionally, create a cfg.json file inside the ~/.config/ipgdrive/ folder, and populate it with the following values:
{
"spreadsheet_name": "my_server_public_ip",
"username": "momo",
"freq_minutes": 5
}
The username is for the user running the process on the server, NOT the Google account username.

# Google doc every 5 minutes

4.3 Adding documentation
The project is documented using the numpy docstring conventions, which were chosen as they are perhaps the most widely-spread conventions that are both supported by common tools such as Sphinx and result in human-readable docstrings. When documenting code you add to this project, follow these conventions.
Additionally, if you update this README.rst file, use python setup.py checkdocs to validate it compiles.
