As Google insist on not releasing a Drive client for linux, we have to search for alternative ways to use Google Drive. Rclone has a mount command that is usefull for light use, this scripts complement it by keeping folders that are under heavy use locally for fast access. See the crontab section bellow for the mount command. As of this moment the bisync function have some quirks that i can't deal with, so the implemented bellow version use 'sync' and manual pull and push.
Before attempting to use this script you need to configure and read the documentation of rclone. I strongly suggest that you also try the scripts with a test folder or use --dry-run.
Some of the flags used don't work in older version of rclone, so update it
sudo -v ; curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | sudo bash
Create the local folders and an RCLONE_TEST file inside of it
mkdir folder-name
cd folder-name/
touch RCLONE_TEST
Edit the rclone_variables.sh to refers to your envisioned folder or folders.
REMOTE_DIR=('remote-name:/folder-name' 'remote-name:/folder-name')
LOCAL_DIR=('folder-name' 'folder-name')
Move the scripts, I'm using /home/lu/Codes/Bash-scripts/rclone-gdrive
Make the scripts executable
chmod +x /home/lu/Codes/Bash-scripts/rclone-gdrive/rclone_*.sh
Run the rclone_pull_run.sh on the terminal to get data from the remote folder
./home/lu/Codes/Bash-scripts/rclone-gdrive/rclone_pull_run.sh
If the result is
- Sync done: You can proceed with the implementation.
- Sync failed: Ops, you need to troubleshoot. Check the log file at
$HOME/.config/rclone/rclone.log. - Sintax dir error: Check the rclone_variables.sh for errors. The
REMOTE_DIRandLOCAL_DIRmust match in order and ammount of entries.
After this you can create and alias for the rclone_pull_run.sh and rclone_push_run.sh or edit crontab to execute them with the wanted time interval.
crontab -e

If you want to mount a drive as well add the line bellow with updated locations, note that --vfs-cache-mode full don't work well in FAT/exFAT file systems.
@reboot sleep 60 && rclone mount g_drive:/ /home/user/Drive/ --vfs-cache-mode full --vfs-cache-max-age=72h --dir-cache-time=72h --vfs-cache-max-size 1G >/dev/null 2&1
vim ~/.bash_aliases
Lines to be added
alias gdrive-pull="bash /home/lu/Codes/Bash-scripts/rclone-gdrive/rclone_pull_run.sh"
alias gdrive-push="bash /home/lu/Codes/Bash-scripts/rclone-gdrive/rclone_push_run.sh"
To get files from the remote folder you can run
gdrive-pull
To get files to the remote folder run
gdrive-push
A 64M chunk-size is used for performance purposes. Google recommends as large a chunk size as possible. Rclone will use the following amount of RAM at run-time (8MB chunks by default; not high enough)...
RAM = (chunk-size * num-transfers)
So our command will use larger chunk sizes (more RAM)...
RAM = 0.5 GB = (64MB * 8 transfers)

In some ABNT2 keyboards the Ç don't work out of the box. So you need to edit /etc/environment
sudo vim /etc/environment
At the end of the archive add
GTK_IM_MODULE=cedilla
Restart the computer
systemctl reboot
Configure ssmtp and mailutils. Then create the file md5-web-mail.sh and add the mail variables in there
MAIL=('user@mail.com' 'other@mail.com')
Update the variables; cd into the script folder; run the check up script; update the crontab to include the followwing line
*/5 * * * * cd /home/lu/Codes/Bash-scripts/md5-web/ && ./md5-web-chek-up.sh >/dev/null 2&1
Custom filter for pdf read
canvas{filter: brightness(0.89) grayscale(0.15) invert(0.95) hue-rotate(180deg) !important; }
Use PDF Arranger to adjust the pdf pages and crop. Then install OCRmyPDF and use the following command to ocr it. Make sure to navigate to the folder or to include the corrent path to the input and output file.
ocrmypdf --deskew -l por input.pdf output.pdf
First list the devices using
xsetwacom --list devices
To enable scroll/pan using the lower button in wacon pen (Button 2)
xsetwacom --set "Wacom One by Wacom S Pen stylus" Button 2 "pan"
To increase the sensitivity decrease the value of "PanScrollThreshold" (the default value was 1300)
xsetwacom --set "Wacom One by Wacom S Pen stylus" "PanScrollThreshold" 200
To invert the tablet horizontally change the "Rotate" parameter to half
xsetwacom --set "Wacom One by Wacom S Pen stylus" "Rotate" half
Go to wacom-x11 folder for that.
convert -density 300 input.pdf -normalize -sharpen 0x2 -compress jpeg -quality 70 -colorspace gray -contrast -contrast -contrast output.pdf
Use the script inside the folder Issuu
