THE SOCIAL PLATFORM

Downloading a Folder from Google Drive with Commands

This README explains how to download a folder directly from your Google Drive to a specific directory on your computer using two popular methods:

Method 1: Using gdown (Python package)

Requirements:

• Python 3 installed on your system
• gdown package installed

Steps:

Install gdown:

pip install gdown

Download the folder:

gdown --folder --id 1CzjJirt9OPBHD8ngPVHFT2LJ5BVIda2m

• This command will download the entire folder and its contents to your current directory.

Method 2: Using curl (command-line tool)

Requirements:

• curl command-line tool installed on your system

Steps:

1. Get the folder ID (same as Method 1):

   • Follow steps 1 and 2 from Method 1 to obtain the folder ID.

2. Download the folder:

   • Open a terminal or command prompt.
   • Navigate to the main directory.

   curl -L "https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1CzjJirt9OPBHD8ngPVHFT2LJ5BVIda2m?usp=sharing" >  africaied-jali.zip

   • This command will download the folder as a compressed ZIP archive named "folder.zip". You can rename the file after download.

Extracting the ZIP Archive (Method 2):

• Once the download is complete (Method 2), you'll need to extract the contents of the ZIP archive:

unzip africaied-jali.zip

This will create a new directory named "folder" containing the downloaded files.

Copy and paste the all the contents of the zip into the social-platform folder
