Installation

From source

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/holgern/pydrime.git
cd pydrime

# Install in development mode
pip install -e .

# Or install with dev dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Configuration

Before using the tool, you need to configure your Drime Cloud API credentials.

Recommended: Use pydrime init Command

The easiest way to configure your API key:

pydrime init

This will:

1. Prompt you for your API key
2. Validate the key with Drime Cloud
3. Store it securely in ~/.config/pydrime/config
4. Set appropriate file permissions (owner read/write only)

Alternative Configuration Methods

Option 1: Environment Variable

export DRIME_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"

Option 2: .env File

Create a .env file in your project directory:

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and add your API key

Option 3: Command-line Argument

Pass the API key directly when running commands:

pydrime upload /path/to/file --api-key "your_api_key_here"

Configuration Priority

The tool checks for API keys in the following order (highest to lowest priority):

1. Command-line --api-key argument
2. DRIME_API_KEY environment variable
3. ~/.config/pydrime/config file
4. Local .env file

Usage

Configure your API key (first time only):

pydrime init

Sync Files

Synchronize local directory with Drime Cloud:

# Default two-way sync
pydrime sync ./my_folder

# Sync with specific remote path
pydrime sync ./docs -r remote_docs

# Preview sync changes (dry run)
pydrime sync ./data --dry-run

# Using sync modes explicitly (format: local:mode:remote)
pydrime sync /home/user/docs:twoWay:/Documents
pydrime sync ./backup:localBackup:/Backup

Sync Modes:

• twoWay (tw) - Mirror changes in both directions
• localToCloud (ltc) - Upload local changes only
• localBackup (lb) - Upload to cloud, never delete
• cloudToLocal (ctl) - Download cloud changes only
• cloudBackup (cb) - Download from cloud, never delete

Ignore Files (.pydrignore):

You can exclude files from sync and upload operations by creating .pydrignore files. These work like .gitignore files with support for gitignore-style patterns:

# Example .pydrignore file
*.log           # Ignore all .log files
node_modules/   # Ignore node_modules directory
!important.log  # But keep important.log
/build          # Ignore build only at root
**/cache/**     # Ignore cache directories anywhere

.pydrignore files are hierarchical - rules in subdirectories can override parent rules.

Find Duplicates

Find and optionally delete duplicate files:

# Show duplicates (dry run)
pydrime find-duplicates

# Find in specific folder recursively
pydrime find-duplicates --folder "My Documents" --recursive

# Actually delete duplicates (moves to trash)
pydrime find-duplicates --delete

Storage Usage

Check your storage usage:

pydrime usage

Vault Commands

The vault provides encrypted file storage with client-side encryption:

# Show vault information
pydrime vault show

# Unlock vault for current session
eval $(pydrime vault unlock)

# List vault files
pydrime vault ls
pydrime vault ls MyFolder

# Upload file to vault (will prompt for password)
pydrime vault upload secret.txt
pydrime vault upload document.pdf -f MyFolder

# Download file from vault
pydrime vault download secret.txt
pydrime vault download secret.txt -o decrypted.txt

# Delete vault file
pydrime vault rm secret.txt

# Lock vault (clear password from session)
eval $(pydrime vault lock)

API Integration Notes

This tool is designed to work with the Drime Cloud API. The current implementation includes placeholder endpoints that need to be updated based on the actual API documentation.

TODO: Update API Endpoints

The following files contain placeholder API endpoints that should be updated once the API documentation is available:

• pydrime/api.py: Update upload_file(), create_directory(), and list_files() endpoints
• Authentication method may need adjustment based on actual API requirements

Troubleshooting

"API key not configured" Error

Make sure you've set the DRIME_API_KEY environment variable or created a .env file with your API key.

Permission Denied Errors

If you encounter permission errors when scanning directories, the tool will skip those files and continue with accessible ones.

API Connection Issues

Verify that:

1. Your API key is valid
2. You have internet connectivity
3. The Drime Cloud API is accessible (not behind a firewall)
