refresh token

[mangomi]

Hi, it was nice demo but let me know why you haven't used "google.client.user-authorization-uri" url. Because i just debug your code and found that only we are getting AccessToken but it will expire in an hour may be so definately we need refresh token as well.

Hi, I know it was long ago that u asked this, but today I had to implement this and here it goes.

Google only provide refresh token when u ask for offline accessType on your flow, so you gonna have to make ur authorize() function look like this:

private String authorize() throws Exception {
        AuthorizationCodeRequestUrl authorizationUrl;
        if (flow == null) {
            Details web = new Details();
            web.setClientId(clientId);
            web.setClientSecret(clientSecret);
            clientSecrets = new GoogleClientSecrets().setWeb(web);
            httpTransport = GoogleNetHttpTransport.newTrustedTransport();
            flow = new GoogleAuthorizationCodeFlow.Builder(httpTransport, JSON_FACTORY, clientSecrets,
                    Collections.singleton(CalendarScopes.CALENDAR))
                    .setAccessType("offline")
                    .build();
        }
        authorizationUrl = flow.newAuthorizationUrl().setRedirectUri(redirectURI);
        System.out.println("cal authorizationUrl->" + authorizationUrl);
        return authorizationUrl.build();
    }

Hope this helps someone looking for answers!
