Google Authentication, Google Drive and Delphi?
Google Authentication, Google Drive and Delphi?
I am looking for Delphi code samples related to authentication and access to documents on Google Drive.
To be specific, I'd like to be able to
- log on with Google+ credentials
- Do like Google Forms and submit entries, one line at a time, to a Google Sheet document
- Retrieve the specific sheet document on Google Drive
Any other component packs or source samples out there, besides TMS Cloud Pack?

Any idea what it would take. I could try to help to start an open source project.
ReplyDeleteI am tempted to invest in the TMS kit, but unsure of how functional it is.
ReplyDeleteone for the calender would be greatly appreciated :-)
ReplyDeleteI was experimenting with Google Authentication and Delphi some time ago. You can try to look at my open source libraries, f.i., https://code.google.com/p/delphi-oop/wiki/RESTClient1.
ReplyDeletesadly I'm stuck on delphi 2007...
ReplyDeleteIf you want to buy into a component set https://www.eldos.com/sbb/desc-cloud.php ... IMO cool.
ReplyDelete"Currently supported cloud storages include Amazon Web Services (S3), Microsoft Azure, Google Docs and Data API, Google Drive, SkyDrive and Dropbox, as well as local file storage"
But ...

should it not also be possible with the new REST framework in XE5?
Yes, I had code accessing to google docs and the spreadsheet API some time ago. This was using Google Auth (old standard). Might not work any more. REST components in XE5 should help out, but I haven't tried the specific API.
ReplyDeleteThe eldos and TMS components look interesting, but I worry that they are to specific, instead of the Lego blocks that I seek.
ReplyDeleteRoland Kossow - Even the REST framework carries quite a bit of baggage, but yeah, it is an option as well. Eldos seems to be closer to my needs than TMS, so I'll have a look at the demos.
ReplyDeleteLars Fosdal BTW // I think the real big advantage of Eldos is the integrated security.
ReplyDeleteGood point, Roland Kossow.
