Hi there! This tool will help you to get all of your photos from Google Takeout to one nice tidy folder

(If any part confuses you, read the guide on:
https://github.com/TheLastGimbus/GooglePhotosTakeoutHelper )

First, select all .zips from Google Takeout (use Ctrl to select multiple)
[press enter to continue]

Cool!

Now, select output folder - all photos will be extracted there
[press enter to continue]

Cool!

Do you want your photos in one big chronological folder, or divided to folders by year/month?
[1] (default) - one big folder
[2] - year/month folders
(Type 1 or 2 or press enter for default):

Okay, one big it is!

(Note: everything will take ~218.47 GiB of disk space - you have 2.21 TiB free so should be fine :)
[press enter to continue]


gpth will now unzip all of that, process it and put everything in the output folder :)
[press enter to continue]

honestly dont have any good idea why 🤷 - maybe try on different disk?

I think it has to do with the way the code handles trailing spaces, the file 'takeout-20230207T165218Z-001.zip' contains 3 folders:

1. 'Design' <-- No spaces
2. 'Design ' <-- Single trailing space character at the end
3. 'Design(1)'

From the error, it seems to be failing on accessing the path with the 2nd folder: (i.e. 'Design ')

PathNotFoundException: Cannot create file, path = 'F:\New folder\.gpth-unzipped\Takeout/Google Photos/Design /metadata.json' (OS Error: The system cannot find the path specified.

In my case, the directory named "Viaje Colombia" not contain spaces in the zip file. The folder exists in the output folder created by the app, but , for some reason, the path that appears the error have a space.

oh my god, i see it:

D:\takeout\out\.gpth-unzipped\Takeout/Google Photos/Viaje Colombia /metadata.json

D:\takeout\... ... /something/something

the archive guy didn't consider windoza 🤦

will try to contact them...

but i don't understand... does this mean windoza version wasn't working all of this time? when does it work and when it doesn't???

[TheLastGimbus]

will get fixed when new version with brendan-duncan/archive#244 gets released

[tribulete]

Hello. I'm a bit of a novice on github flow.

When will the new release of "archive" be published and fix this issue?

[TheLastGimbus]

When @brendan-duncan merges it

[TheLastGimbus]

forgot i can just use git in pubspec 🤦

fixed in v3.3.4 🎉

[omlet05]

not merged correctly?
