why is this error coming?

ericyd commented 6 years ago

It is due to exceeding the quota that is imposed on free scripts. I can't get around it unless I pay, but I really don't want to do that.

I should add a limited as suggested in this SO answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/18743718

I'm open to PRs

ericyd commented 6 years ago

I just added a request throttler to ensure that API requests are sent at a maximum of 10 per second, which should keep it below the rate limit. If this doesn't solve the issue, further investigation will take place in #6.

Is there a way to use this script and pay for it? I need to transfer a few TB of videos in about a week. Thanks!

shirshak55 commented 4 years ago

@xingfanxia transfering few tb is easy if u use service like multicloud.com :D

shirshak55 commented 4 years ago

@xingfanxia or you can connect multiple gmail account and transfer it making it parallel :)

ericyd commented 4 years ago

This app/service will definitely not be a good fit for transferring a few tb in a week. You can definitely try but I almost guarantee it will not work.

shirshak55 commented 4 years ago

@ericyd have u tried. I have transferred like 2 tb in 2 day using that multi cloud tho.

ericyd commented 4 years ago

I have not tried, I don't have multiple tb of data to experiment with. Historically, the bugs reported for this app are due to people trying to copy enormous files/folders hence my recommendation to use another service.

Multicloud sounds like a great option, I have never used it myself but happy that you can vouch for it

xingfanxia commented 4 years ago

@ericyd @shirshak55 Thanks for the advice!

xingfanxia commented 4 years ago

@shirshak55 does multicloud work for the use case which I want to copy from a shared folder/drive?

xingfanxia commented 4 years ago

@shirshak55 I gave it a try, blocked by the 403 User limited exceeded :(
