HSGoogleDrivePicker

A sane and simple file picker for Google Drive.

Google makes it ridiculously painful to select a file from Google Drive.

For many use-cases, all you want is to present a picker, and get a notification when your user has selected a file.

This is the API that Google should have written.

Example

#import "HSDrivePicker.h"

    
HSDrivePicker *picker=[[HSDrivePicker alloc] initWithId:@"YOUR ID HERE"
                                                   secret:@"YOUR SECRET HERE"];
    
[picker pickFromViewController:self
                withCompletion:^(HSDriveManager *manager, GTLDriveFile *file) {
                        NSLog(@"selected: %@",file.title);
                    }];

Getting Started

• Install HSGoogleDrivePicker via CocoaPods or by downloading the Source files
• Follow the Google guide to set up your API keys
• Run a picker.

##Installing HSGoogleDrivePicker

You can install HSGoogleDrivePicker in your project by using CocoaPods

pod 'HSGoogleDrivePicker', '~> 1.0’

Getting your API keys

• Follow Google’s guide (Step 1 only).
• Enable the Drive API permission. (click on ‘APIs and Auth’, ‘APIs’, then search for ‘Drive’)

Usage

Run the example code above using your keys.

The completion handler returns with a GTLDriveFile which has all the info you need.

#import "HSDrivePicker.h"

    
HSDrivePicker *picker=[[HSDrivePicker alloc] initWithId:@"YOUR ID HERE"
                                                   secret:@"YOUR SECRET HERE"];
    
[picker pickFromViewController:self
                withCompletion:^(HSDriveManager *manager, GTLDriveFile *file) {
                        NSLog(@"selected: %@",file.title);
                    }];

To download the file, use

       
[manager downloadFile:file
               toPath:fullPath
withCompletionHandler:^(NSError *error) {

	if (error)
	{
		NSLog(@"Error downloading");
	}
	else
	{
		NSLog(@"Success");
	}
}];

Status

HSGoogleDrivePicker is simplistic and new, but I’m using it in production code.
