Skydrive

Simple client library for Microsoft Skydrive API with OAuth2 authentication

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'skydrive'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install skydrive

Initial steps

OAuth2 Authentication

Skydrive uses OAuth2 authentication. First you will have to initialize a Skydrive::Oauth::Client object with the client id, client secret, callback url and scopes (explained here)

oauth_client = Skydrive::Oauth::Client.new("your_client_id", "your_client_secret", "http://yourcallbackurl", "wl.skydrive_update,wl.offline_access")

Obtain the authentication url

auth_url = oauth_client.authorize_url

Redirect the user to the above obtained auth_url. After user gives access to your app, they will be redirected to the callback url with a 'code' parameter. Extract this code and get the access token by invoking the following method

access_token = oauth_client.get_access_token("the_extracted_code")

If you have already stored the access_token details somewhere, you can instantiate the access token without having to authorize again. But this might require you to store the refresh token(if scope 'wl.offline_access' has been requested) as well.

access_token = oauth_client.get_access_token_from_hash("access_token", {:refresh_token => "refresh_token", :expires_at => 1234567})

Instantiate a client

After getting the access token instantiate the Skydrive client

client = Skydrive::Client.new(access_token)

Usage

Get the user's home folder

To get the details about the acting user's home folder folder = client.my_skydrive

This returns a Skydrive::Folder object.

Please refer to the documentation for full details about the operations
