Android Backup Service

You should make a plugin

Also on authorization, ping me I think a have modified auth2 Lua file on Dropbox some where where I used googles services( scottrules44@gmail.com). I would share it with everyone but oauth2 is a paid product.

Dear Scott,

Thanks for your answer.

I have bought the oAuth2 Extension. But it don’t comes with the configuration values to use with Google Drive. I’m reading all the Google Drive API Documentation and it is terrible… :wacko:

I think this extension can be used with all sites that uses OAuth2 to connect (Google Drive, DropBox, BufferApp, Foursquare, Smartthings, GumRoad, …) but appear that different sites has different variables. I can’t found Google Drive configuration.

I registered for the OAuth2 in Google Drive for my app, and download a son file that contain the following values:

{“installed”:{“client_id”:"<myClientId>",“project_id”:"<myProjectId>",“auth_uri”:"https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",“token_uri”:“https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token”,“auth_provider_x509_cert_url”:“https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs”,“client_secret”:"<secret_Client>",“redirect_uris”:[“urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob”,“http://localhost”]}}

How can I use this with the oAuth2 extension I have bought?

I see other values to set there like:

– BufferApp

url_authorization_buffer = "https://bufferapp.com/oauth2/authorize"

url_access_token_buffer = "https://api.bufferapp.com/1/oauth2/token.json"

url_access_profiles_buffer = "https://api.bufferapp.com/1/profiles.json"

url_user_buffer = "https://api.bufferapp.com/1/user.json"

client_id_buffer = “<Client ID>”

client_secret_buffer = “<Client Secret>”

Terrible… Any suggestion?

Thanks again to all. If I can perform a widget I will share for sure. I’d love to perform an easy widget that can support Google Drive, DropBox… only to write and read for the application folder, and easy to use, for sure, depending of the oAuth2 extension that need to be buy. But I can perform a widget with can be used like the follow:

local gDrive = widget.googleDriveNew(…)

gDrive.putFile (file)

gDrive.getFile (file)

for sure, with dependency of the oAuth2 extension.

Any help?

Thanks again…

First off just done on vacation, second let me take a look

CesarHernandez · July 5, 2016, 7:02pm

Thanks very much dear.

If I find any I will let you know too.

Regards,

Scott_Harrison · July 6, 2016, 3:07am

Just a quick update, i did have lots of success. The biggest problem is uploading files. Google is very specific on how the want multipart data and corona does not support multipart data. Thier is a module made long ago (class_multipartData.lua), which does not meet googles requirements. So I have to do lots of modification.

Scott_Harrison · July 6, 2016, 4:20pm

Update 2: google drive plugin is complete, now working on documentation and sample.

CesarHernandez · July 11, 2016, 12:02am

Dear Scott¡ good news. Excellent job. Dear, where can i find your sample and documentation? Possible to share it? Thanks again!

Scott_Harrison · July 11, 2016, 12:09am

Glad you asked, it is currently on its way to the corona marketplace for the low price of free.

CesarHernandez · July 11, 2016, 12:14am

Wow, thanks so much for your excellent job and very quick answer. I’m going to check it. Amazing dear. Thanks again!

CesarHernandez · July 26, 2016, 9:57pm

Dear Scott, any news about the plugging? I’m in expectation for it.

I was reading at your web and it must be amazing.

Do you know if it will last many time to publish in Corona Plugging Store?

Thanks again dear, Great Job!

Scott_Harrison · July 26, 2016, 10:04pm

Corona is making some updates to their marketplace, I have pokeing corona as much as I can to try to get this plugin out. I submitted July 11.

CesarHernandez · August 22, 2016, 10:58pm

Dear Scott. Again, thanks for your excellent job. I will continue awaiting it.

Thanks a lot again.

CesarHernandez · August 23, 2016, 9:01pm

Dear Scott,

Fantastic !!. Thanks so much a lot for your excellent job.

I’m going to use it following your well done guides.

Thanks again. Great job.

CesarHernandez · August 23, 2016, 11:29pm

Dear Scott, its fantastic. I have tested your example and followed your detailed info and works fine.

Only I don’t know how to copy files to an specific folder at Google Drive. I will use this extension for a backup of a user data file (in zip format) for my app. DropBox allow to write only to the App directory. With this extension I have access to all the user root files. I only need to save restore backup file from/to an App folder, or, create an specific folder to save the App data and not disturb or write to the root directory to avoid the user can delete accidentally the backup file.

It is possible to create a folder and copy the file to that folder?

I don’t find the way to only have access to Apps folder (if it exist in Google Drive).

Any suggestion?

Thanks for your excellent job dear. You did it perfect !!!

Scott_Harrison · August 24, 2016, 1:21am

I need to make some change to the plugin hold on

Scott_Harrison · August 24, 2016, 3:19am

This has been added seehttps://scottrules44.com/plugin#GoogleDriveIt is at the bottem, please sign out first Add drive.onlyAppAccess(true). This require a re sign in and this should be declared before calling drive.login

Scott_Harrison · August 24, 2016, 3:19am

I have not tested yet, I will fix it if it needs it but it should work

CesarHernandez · August 27, 2016, 1:36pm

Dear Scott, thanks again for your excellent work.

I’m testing with it. I have add

drive.onlyAppAccess(true)

before drive.init and ok

but, now, when try to upload a file, I have the error:

“{\n “error”: {\n “errors”: [\n {\n “domain”: “global”,\n “reason”: “insufficientFilePermissions”,\n “message”: “The user does not have sufficient permissions for this file.”\n }\n ],\n “code”: 403,\n “message”: “The user does not have sufficient permissions for this file.”\n }\n}\n”

I think it is the credentials. I have no way to configure the corrects credentials in google drive.

I used this:

local fileName = “arrow”

drive.request(“https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v3/files/”, “POST”, function ( e )

print(json.encode(e.response))

end, {uploadType= “multipart”}, {parent = “appDataFolder”, name = fileName}, fileName…".png", system.ResourceDirectory, “image/png”, fileName )

but the answer is:

“{\n “error”: {\n “errors”: [\n {\n “domain”: “global”,\n “reason”: “insufficientFilePermissions”,\n “message”: “The user does not have sufficient permissions for this file.”\n }\n ],\n “code”: 403,\n “message”: “The user does not have sufficient permissions for this file.”\n }\n}\n”

if I disable the new option you prepared ( --drive.onlyAppAccess(true) )

then create a file but no way to create at the appDataFolder.

Any idea?

Thanks again.
