Public Methods

public abstract PendingResult<DriveFolder.DriveFileResult> createFile (GoogleApiClient apiClient, MetadataChangeSet changeSet, DriveContents driveContents, ExecutionOptions executionOptions)

Creates a new binary file within this folder, with the provided initial metadata and DriveContents. See DriveFile for more details on binary files.

Parameters
apiClient The GoogleApiClient to service the call. The client must be connected before invoking this method.
changeSet A set of metadata fields that should be initially set. This must minimally include a title and mime type.
driveContents The initial contents. The provided contents must have been obtained through newDriveContents(GoogleApiClient). This DriveContents cannot be reused after this method returns. This parameter may also be set to null to create an empty file, but it is recommended to create non-empty files where the mime-type does not support having a zero byte file (for example, image or PDF files).
executionOptions A set of options for this method execution, such as whether to send an event when the action has completed on the server. See ExecutionOptions for more details. setConflictStrategy(int) is not supported for this method. When null is provided, this method will use default ExecutionOptions, that is no completion event requested and no operation tag.
Returns
  • A PendingResult which can be used to retrieve the newly created DriveFile.

public abstract PendingResult<DriveFolder.DriveFileResult> createFile (GoogleApiClient apiClient, MetadataChangeSet changeSet, DriveContents driveContents)

Creates a new binary file within this folder, with the provided initial metadata and DriveContents. See DriveFile for more details on binary files.

This method behaves like createFile(GoogleApiClient, MetadataChangeSet, DriveContents, ExecutionOptions) with null ExecutionOptions, which means no completion event requested and no operation tag.

Parameters
apiClient The GoogleApiClient to service the call. The client must be connected before invoking this method.
changeSet A set of metadata fields that should be initially set. This must minimally include a title and mime type.
driveContents The initial contents. The provided contents must have been obtained through newDriveContents(GoogleApiClient). This DriveContents cannot be reused after this method returns. This parameter may also be set to null to create an empty file, but it is recommended to create non-empty files where the mime-type does not support having a zero byte file (for example, image or PDF files).
Returns
  • A PendingResult which can be used to retrieve the newly created DriveFile.

public abstract PendingResult<DriveFolder.DriveFolderResult> createFolder (GoogleApiClient apiClient, MetadataChangeSet changeSet)

Creates a new folder within this folder, with the provided initial metadata.

Parameters
apiClient The GoogleApiClient to service the call. The client must be connected before invoking this method.
changeSet A set of metadata fields that should be initially set. This must minimally include a title. The mime type will be set to the folder mime type.
Returns
  • A PendingResult which can be used to retrieve the newly created DriveFolder.

public abstract PendingResult<DriveApi.MetadataBufferResult> listChildren (GoogleApiClient apiClient)

Retrieves a collection of metadata for the direct children of this folder. The result will include metadata for both files and folders.

Parameters

public abstract PendingResult<DriveApi.MetadataBufferResult> queryChildren (GoogleApiClient apiClient, Query query)

Retrieves a collection of metadata for the all authorized direct children of this folder. Unless restricted by the query, the result will include metadata for both files and folders.

Parameters
apiClient The GoogleApiClient to service the call.
query A query that will restrict the results of the retrieved children.
Returns
  • A PendingResult which can be used to retrieve the children list. Be sure to call release() when you're done with the result.
