How to get the files from Google Drive?

[ElangoPrince]

Get the file or selected file path from google drive. state any example for that?

my code:

const sourceUri = {uri: 'https://drive.google.com'};
  const destinationPath = "foo-bar/docs/info.pdf";
  const mimeType = null;
  const scope = 'visible';

    RNCloudFs.copyToCloud({
      sourcePath: sourceUri, 
      targetPath: destinationPath, 
      mimeType: mimeType, 
      scope: scope
    })
    .then((path) => {
      console.log("it worked", path);
    })
    .catch((err) => {
      console.warn("it failed", err);
    })

Just in case somebody still need it: i'm using react-native-google-drive-api-wrapper and react-native-fs

After initializing Gdrive (see google-drive-api-wrapper docs) you need to get the folderId, just in case you placed your file in any folder

let folderId = await GDrive.files.safeCreateFolder({
                name: "MyFolder",
                parents: ["root"]
            })

then, use Gdrive's getId to find your file id

let myFileId= await GDrive.files.getId(
                    `myFileName`,
                    [folderId ],
                )

Make sure the folder where you want to place your file exists with RNFS

 await RNFS.exists(`${RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath}/myFolder/`).then(async exists => {
                    if (!exists) {
                        await RNFS.mkdir(`${RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath}/myFolder/`)
                    }
})

Finally, you can download your data:

GDrive.files.download(fileId, { toFile: `${RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath}/myFolder/filename.json` }, { alt: "media" }).promise.then(async (res) => {
                       if (res.statusCode == 200) {
                           myFileContent = await RNFS.readFile(${RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath}/myFolder/filename.json, 'utf8')
                          console.log(myFileContent)
                       } else {
                           throw new Error("Error")
                       }
                   })
