"Linux Learning Journey" [turn] degree Niang cloud: Baidu Cloud Linux Client Bcloud

Cloud era, a variety of network disk, cloud synchronization endless. Mint Open Source Network from the perspective of Linux desktop is also a lot of concern, has tested, used Yunno, Wuala, Jinshan fast disk, nut cloud and other Linux support good network. As the industry's big guy, Baidu Cloud Network disk capacity, users, fast, unlimited traffic, unfortunately there is no Linux client.

Today, Liulang, author of the cool player Kwplayer, who developed Linux, wrote a Baidu cloud Linux client –bcloud. Mint Open Source net blood ties grass deeply admire! Of course, we have to do is to increase publicity and promotion efforts, so that people know that today's Linux is not the former showing!

Blood ties was tested Bcloud in Ubuntukylin 14.04, Xubuntu 14.04 and Lmde 201403 respectively. Compared to some of the previous personal open source software works, it seems that the starting point for Bcloud is high. After testing, blood ties grass found the following advantages:
1. Beautiful icon (dark batch of moonplayer icons Rough point)
2. Full function (upload, download, share, streaming, offline download, etc.)
3. Easy to install (multi-format packaging, and less dependent, novice easy to master)
4. Simple interface (practical and not simple, easy to use, without complex settings, with beautiful message hint)

Bcloud's:
Developer Homepage Download Bcloud (may be wall)
Mint Open Source network baidu cloud Download Bcloud

After you download the Bcloud deb package, install it using Software Center or Gdebi.

It seems that using Gdebi installation in Ubuntu 14.04 has not been able to install the dependent packages automatically (using the Ubuntu Software Center Install Deb Package, you can install the dependencies automatically). , you are prompted to run the command in the terminal to fix it.

Then follow the prompts to fix it.

The so-called fix, in fact, is to download and install the dependency package in the terminal.

After the installation, you can see the Bcloud Launcher in the main menu, the icon is still very delicate.

Start Bcloud, without any superfluous, fancy decorations, only the login window.

The first sign-in will show the default setting options, which are all very simple and remain the default.

The main interface of Bcloud is rendered after login. The left navigation bar is the Category View and some feature pages, the right side is the specific content. This is the directory that you created yourself. Because Bcloud's main interface is very similar to the file manager of the native system, and is consistent with the icon theme of the native system, blood ties is often confused. It's really great!

This is the upload file interface. In the lower left corner, you can see the space usage, which is 5G by default. According to Baidu Advertising, as long as the installation of mobile phone client, can be increased to 2TB.

Select the cloud to save the path.

Bcloud upload speed, upload complete will have a message prompt. The news tip was pretty good, too.

Right-click on a file in the cloud to select Download.

Download speed is fast enough. After all, the industry is the big guy, Baidu cloud speed than small companies are still very advantageous.

The sharing function of the network disk is naturally essential. Right-click the cloud file and choose Share.

Wait 1, 2 seconds, and a message indicates that the file's share address has been copied to the Clipboard. , open the text editor, paste out the file is the share address.

Paste this address into the browser open, is not very convenient, very simple? Send this address to someone else or publish it online, and others will be able to access and download it.

Let's test Bcloud's streaming capabilities. In short, it is placed in the Baidu Cloud audio and video files, you can use the local player in the Bcloud client to play online, no need to visit the Web page. Note: Some players do not support streaming media. Recommended VLC and Mplayer related players (Gnome Mplayer or SMplayer)

, the player buffers slightly to start playback. As long as your internet speed Heiihoie, basically and play local video files no difference.

Finally, test the Bcloud offline download function. Open a Web site where you can download movies. Most of the domestic download site basically only provide thunder or express download links, Linux can only empty sigh. Either go to Windows or use the virtual machine windows, or wine Thunderbolt.

Copy the Thunder download link in the page just now, in the "Cloud" tab of Bcloud "New link Task", paste the address. Bcloud supports a variety of address formats that previously gave Linux users headaches, and is awesome!

Select the cloud to save the path.

Downloading in progress. Do not know Baidu is currently in the "net action" closed offline download, or blood ties grass of the cock wire account does not support, delay the download has progressed. However, according to the author and some netizens use the report, bcloud offline download is no problem.

Finally, you can look at the blood ties grass in lmde 201403 to install the test Bcloud video.

"Cloud" products with a lot of, nature will deepen some understanding. As seen in the introduction of the nut cloud, why not called the network disk? Because the network disk is only a cloud storage, download and sharing products, and cloud synchronization is in addition to the function of the network, but also with the local directory, file synchronization: Local Add, cloud Add, local modification, cloud modification.

Baidu Cloud is a good network disk, Bcloud is a Linux under the awesome client!
