Hi,
Can you please use the issue template? I don't think we'll be able to offer much help given the level of detail you've provided.
Also, is this happening with any other path?
/Library/CloudStorage
looks wrong. Are you sure it's not under ~
?
> fileproviderctl
File Provider control utility.
fileproviderctl <command> <options>
Commands:
listproviders - Show registered providers
enumerate|ls <provider|collection> - enumerate a container
-v,--verbose verbose output
-i,--item <item id> monitor a container other than root
-w,--workingset monitor the working set (equiv. to -i <working set identifier>)
-d,--sort-by-date sort by date instead of name
-t,--type <UTI> item type displayed in the enumeration (default: public.item)
-u,--thumbnail output thumbnails via 1337 escape code
-e,--no-cache don't use the cache on disk
thumbnail [<provider> <domain> <itemid>]|[<url>] - dump thumbnail for an item
attributes <item> [--direct] - get attributes for a url [from fpd]
dump [<domain|provider>] - dump state of fileprovider's daemon
--limit-dump-size limit the number of items dumped
signal <provider> [<item id>] - signal a provider on the given item (defaults to working set)
materialize <item> - materialize the path on disk
evict <item>... - make the paths on disk dataless
-n,--namespace attempt to evict directories
coordinate - perform a coordination on a given path
-R, --recursive <path> perform a recursive read
-r, --read <path> perform a single item read
-w, --write <path> perform a coordinated write
-d, --delete <path> perform a coordinated delete
-t, --time <seconds> hold coordination for this long (default: inf)
-e, --debug dump file coordination info
stabilize [<domain>...] - wait for the domain to stabilize
-B, --barrier <item id> apply a barrier on the specified item instead of a full stabilizatio
evaluate <item> - evaluate finder actions and decorations on item
evaluate <action> [<item>] <target item> - evaluate finder interactions
domain <action> [<domainid>] - modify domains properties
interactive-scheduling <domain> - interactive scheduling session
check | repair - run FPCK
-f perform a full dump (all items)
-a <path> perform check under path
-b <path> operate on an already created DB backup. If this is set you need to set -a to point to the domain ro
-o <path> write output into file at path
-P no-pager output
-d dimisss low-importance invariants
-v print out files with broken invariants
-m [<providerDomainID>] perform check on the d2d migration backup

@n8henrie Dropbox is behaving this way now, too. I'm sure I won't use the right words, but a (fairly unwelcome, if I'm being honest) recent Dropbox update switched to using "cloud storage" services built in to the OS, as opposed to their own sync/update routines, sitting on top of ~/Dropbox
.
The automatic update process for Dropbox left ~/Dropbox
as a symlink to /Users/me/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox
. I assume Google Drive is doing the same thing, and suspect that in both cases it's to smooth the transition for users, preserving access from the terminal and Shift+Command+G at the old, more obvious location.
As a consequence, it's no longer possible to tell identically-named subdirectories apart in Quicksilver, because where the full pathname used to display below the match, it just says "iCloud."
I presume just a little bit more work needs to be done to query the "real" path out of whatever API macOS provides and display that instead of just "iCloud." An alternative might be to exclude ~/Dropbox
or ~/Google Drive
(as the case may be) from the catalog, but include, recursively ~/Library/CloudStorage/TheServiceName
instead.
What a mess. I uninstalled Dropbox and Google Drive when they started requiring and requesting permissions to access all kinds of stuff they didn't need to be touching, now I use rclone to connect to Google Drive and sync a specific folder as a chrome job, and Syncthing to sync that folder to my iCloud storage, which syncs to my phone / Mac / various Linux devices. Convoluted, but works well for me.
At some point I'll look into this, but currently stuck on getting the last few tests passing. I'm not confident enough in my ObjC or the QS database to be tinkering too much without a reasonably complete test suite to ensure I'm not breaking things.
I search for Google Drive and is path is something like /Library/CloudStorage/GoogleDrive...
As soon as I go inside that folder, the path changes to "iCloud" and remains like that for every file inside Google Drive.
