It wraps the requests library to handle the download mechanics and optionally unzips the result afterward. The package is designed for simple, one-off downloads of shared files without requiring OAuth setup or the full Google Drive API.\n\nIt's typically used in data pipelines, ML training scripts, or documentation workflows where you need to fetch a static file from a shared Google Drive link. The API is intentionally bare\u2014just a file ID, a path, and optional flags for progress display and overwrite behavior. Maintenance is dormant but the package remains functional on modern Python versions.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need a lightweight, zero-configuration way to download a shared Google Drive file by ID. The install is frictionless and the API is straightforward. However, verify the license before use in proprietary code, and test that it still works with your target file (Google Drive's sharing model may affect accessibility). Not suitable if you need active maintenance or support for complex Drive operations."},"id":"googledrivedownloader","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/googledrivedownloader","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/googledrivedownloader.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/googledrivedownloader/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-01-16","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"googledrivedownloader","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Minimal class to download shared files from Google Drive."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":122803,"position":11932,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.0"}
