Ghost Google Drive

Google drive storage for ghost allows you to store the contents on google drive. I believe its helpful if you are gonna host your ghost app on heroku.

Will work with version higher than 0.6.0 of Ghost!

What's is new in 2.x

• Rewritten to add support for Ghost 2.x.

Installation

Via NPM

• cd into Ghost's current directory and install ghost-google-drive storage module

  cd current
  npm install ghost-google-drive
  

• cd back to the root directory and make the storage folder if it doesn't exist yet

  mkdir content/adapters/storage
  

• Copy the module into the right location

  cp -vR current/node_modules/ghost-google-drive content/adapters/storage/ghost-google-drive
  

• Install package dependencies

  cd content/adapters/storage/ghost-google-drive
  npm install
  

Via Git

In order to replace the storage module, the basic requirements are:

• Clone this repo to /content/adapters/storage. Please create the directories if not there.

  cd [path/to/ghost]/content/adapters/storage
  git clone https://github.com/robincsamuel/ghost-google-drive.git
  

• Install dependencies

  cd ghost-google-drive
  npm install
  

Configuration

Add the following to your environment configuration, config.development.json if development.

"storage": {
  "active": "ghost-google-drive",
  "ghost-google-drive": {
    "key": {
            "private_key_id": "YOUR PRIVATE KEY ID",
            "private_key": "YOUR PRIVATE KEY",
            "client_email": "YOUR CLIENT EMAIL",
            "client_id": "YOUR CLIENT ID"
     }
  }
},

You just have to replace the key object with your json array generated by google console.

If you are not sure about how to get google ccredentials, please read below.

Create OAuth credentials

• Login to google console

• Create a new project from the top right dropdown
  

• Click on Enable APIS and Services

• Search Google Drive

• Enable Google Drive API

• Click on the Create Credentials button.
  

• Add information for credentialing.

• You can skip the OAuth consent screen setup.
  

• From the credentials section, create a new Service Account Key

• Enter the account info, choose JSON for key type and download the file.

You can copy the contents of json file to the config file (under storege.ghost-google-drive.ghost) as shown in the Configuration step.

Managing Google Drive

If you've followed the steps above, you just created a service account. A service account can't be logged into like a normal Google Drive account. Fret not! We've built a solution to help.
