The Google Drive plugin for Uppy lets users import files from their Google Drive account.
A Companion instance is required for the GoogleDrive plugin to work. Companion handles authentication with Google, downloads files from the Drive and uploads them to the destination. This saves the user bandwidth, especially helpful if they are on a mobile connection.
Uppy is being developed by the folks at Transloadit, a versatile file encoding service.
import Uppy from '@uppy/core'
import GoogleDrive from '@uppy/google-drive'
const uppy = new Uppy()
uppy.use(GoogleDrive, {
// Options
})
$ npm install @uppy/google-drive
Alternatively, you can also use this plugin in a pre-built bundle from
Transloadit’s CDN: Smart CDN. In that case Uppy
will attach itself to the
global window.Uppy
object. See the
main Uppy documentation for instructions.
Documentation for this plugin can be found on the Uppy website.
