Google has announced command line tool-Magnon International

GoogleCL brings Google services to the command line.

GoogleCL was developed in Python

It's an open-source software project that's hosted on Google Code and distributed under the Apache license.

It accepts commands to Googles Calendar, Docs ,Contacts, Picasa, YouTube, and Blogger .

Currently support the following GoogleCL services:

Google Calendar

$ google calendar add "Lunch with Jim at noon tomorrow"

Google Docs

$ google docs edit --title "Shopping list"

Google Contacts

$ google contacts list name,email > contacts.csv

Google Picasa

$ google picasa create --album "Cat Photos" ~/photos/cats/*.jpg

Google Youtube

$ google youtube post --category Education killer_robots.avi

Google Blogger

$ google blogger post --title "foo" "command line posting"

Before hacking in our own services, it's probably best if we encourage the gdata teams to add new services (and python interfaces to those new APIs) first.
