Ontology

UDS : Unlimited Drive Storage by Stewart McGown is an open source Python program that stores files into Google Docs.

The original justification was that Google Docs didn't count against your Google Drive quota. This is no longer the case, but the code should still work.

  • Split up binary files into Google Docs, with base64 encoded text
  • Size of the encoded file is always larger than the original. Base64 encodes binary data to a ratio of about 4:3.
  • A single google doc can store about a million characters. This is around 710KB of base64 encoded data.
