How to sync OneDrive on Ubuntu 14.04?
As @terdon said Onedrive-D is still under development.
Alternatively you can use other cloud storage services.
Here is the instruction on how to install "OneDrive-D":
Step1: Download the program from GitHub.
Step2: Extract the contents of the .zip
file and run the installer from “onedrive-d-master.”
For that Press Ctrl+Alt+T and execute:
cd ~/Downloads
ls
unzip onedrive-d-old-future.zip
cd onedrive-d-old-future
./install.sh
Note 1: I used ls
command to list files in that folder and to avoid mistakes in file names.SInce there is another new project for same purpose.
Note 2: onedrive-d need python-3. Refer here for prerequisites,but all necessary softwares will be installed ,during installation process.So no need to worry about prerequisites.
Step 3: After installation you will see message like this:
onedrive-d installed successfully.
Please run command `onedrive-pref` to set up the program.
Now open terminal and run: onedrive-pref
Open the link in browser and enter your user id and password.
you will see prompt like this :
Click on YES. Then copy the link and paste it in terminal.You will see message like this:
