Google colab changing directory

I can't change my directory in Google colab. when I type cd it gives output like this '/content' I tried to change the directory using import os os.chdir("drive")

but it shows error No such file or directory: 'drive' . How to get rid of this?

回答1:

Did you create a /drive directory? (By default, one does not exist. You'll need to mount your Drive using a recipe like this one.

Otherwise, create a directory first. For example,

!mkdir demo
%cd demo
!pwd

will show /content/demo.

First, you have to install OCaml Fuse to use this feature on Google Colab, run the following command to install OCaml Fuse :

!apt-get install -y -qq software-properties-common python-software-properties module-init-tools
!add-apt-repository -y ppa:alessandro-strada/ppa 2>&1 > /dev/null
!apt-get update -qq 2>&1 > /dev/null
!apt-get -y install -qq google-drive-ocamlfuse fuse
from google.colab import auth
auth.authenticate_user()
from oauth2client.client import GoogleCredentials
creds = GoogleCredentials.get_application_default()
import getpass
!google-drive-ocamlfuse -headless -id={creds.client_id} -secret={creds.client_secret} < /dev/null 2>&1 | grep URL
vcode = getpass.getpass()
!echo {vcode} | google-drive-ocamlfuse -headless -id={creds.client_id} -secret={creds.client_secret}

During the installation, (usually) Collab will ask you to insert code verification twice, just follow the link and accept the permission, then copy the code and paste to the form field that appear.

After the installation finish, run the below :

!mkdir drive
!google-drive-ocamlfuse drive
!ls -lla drive/"Colab Notebooks"

and see the output, and then you can refer to your file on your drive like these :

x = "drive/Colab Notebooks/blablablah/blah/file.p"
y = "drive/Colab Notebooks/blablablah/blah/file.p"
z = "drive/Colab Notebooks/blablablah/blah/file.p"

hope this can help you!
