dvc: GDrive remotes not working (missing pydrive) [MacOS]

$ dvc version     
DVC version: 0.82.2
Python version: 3.7.6
Platform: Darwin-19.0.0-x86_64-i386-64bit
Binary: False
Package: brew
Cache: reflink - supported, hardlink - supported, symlink - supported

$ dvc push        
ERROR: failed to push data to the cloud - URL 'gdrive://root' is supported but requires these missing dependencies: ['pydrive2']. If you have installed dvc using pip, choose one of these options to proceed: 

    1) Install specific missing dependencies:
        pip install pydrive2
    2) Install dvc package that includes those missing dependencies: 
        pip install 'dvc[gdrive]'
    3) Install dvc package with all possible dependencies included: 
        pip install 'dvc[all]'

If you have installed dvc from a binary package and you are still seeing this message, please report it to us using https://github.com/iterative/dvc/issues. Thank you!


Having any troubles? Hit us up at https://dvc.org/support, we are always happy to help!

P.s. is there a typical reason why DVC command outputs have extra blank spaces? I also saw some when configuring the gdrive remote with dvc remote modify

@jorgeorpinel it seems that pydrive2 package still is not available from the same Python environment you are running dvc from.

but your package is coming from brew, so no wonder pip installs don’t

Makes sense. I don’t remember if I tried uninstalling with brew before workarounds. Oh well

Sent a PR Homebrew/homebrew-core#49361 Brew patch was merged as well, it now includes gdrive support

Sweet, thanks Ruslan. Haven’t gotten back to testing GDrive stuff but will let you know if I have any other troubles. And OK about the known issue of extra blank lines.

https://github.com/httplib2/httplib2/releases/tag/v0.17.0 - this might be relevant, 👀

@efiop yes, I know that the problem was caused by that change … trying to understand why first.

The one over “having troubles”? It is a known issue, just didn’t get to it yet. Or do you mean others too?

@jorgeorpinel Sent a PR https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/49361 . Thanks a lot for the feedback!

@jorgeorpinel Well, but your package is coming from brew, so no wonder pip installs don’t; work 🙂 Looks like we’ve forgotten to include pydrive into the brew package, will send a patch ASAP. For now, uninstall from brew and install dvc from pip and it should start working 🙂
