3. Create credentials (service account key) for your project:
   • Go to the "Credentials" page.
   • Click "Create Credentials" and select "Service account key".
   • Choose or create a new service account.
   • Set the role to Editor or another role that grants the necessary permissions.
   • Select JSON for the key type and download the file.

For more detailed instructions, see the Google Drive API documentation.

example

Here's a basic example of how to use this client:

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "os"

    "github.com/tiagomelo/google-drive-client/googledrive"
)

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()
    client, err := googledrive.New(ctx, credsFilePath)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
        os.Exit(1)
    }
    const parentFolderId = `1LTtYxqYUMoA1IzHmlx_RMVdkWgtskMxO`
    folder, err := client.CreateFolder("test folder", parentFolderId)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
        os.Exit(1)
    }
    fmt.Printf("folder.Id: %v\n", folder)

    file, err := os.Open("test.txt")
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
        os.Exit(1)
    }
    defer file.Close()

    uploadedFile, err := client.UploadFile(file, folder)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
        os.Exit(1)
    }
    fmt.Printf("uploadedFile: %v\n", uploadedFile)
}
