I have managed to create a simple app which deletes (bypassing the recycle bin) any files I want to. It can also upload files. The problem I am having is that I cannot specify which collection the new file should be uploaded to.
def UploadFile(folder, filename, local_file, client):
print "Upload Resource"
doc = gdata.docs.data.Resource(type='document', title=filename)
path = _GetDataFilePath(local_file)
media = gdata.data.MediaSource()
media.SetFileHandle(path, 'application/octet-stream')
create_uri = gdata.docs.client.RESOURCE_UPLOAD_URI + '?convert=false'
collection_resource = folder
upload_doc = client.CreateResource(doc, create_uri=create_uri, collection=collection_resource, media=media)
print 'Created, and uploaded:', upload_doc.title, doc.resource_id
From what I understand the function CreateResources requires a resource object representing the collection. How do I get this object? The variable folder is currently just a string which says 'daily' which is the name of the collection, it is this variable which I need to replace with the collection resource.
