Google Docs API

[cybrax]

I'm tring to upload a files to the google docs service using the api but have hit a dead end. The script below will move a plain text file but not a pdf.. according to the documentation they say it can be done but I'm going cross eyed reading it over and over again.

Been tinkering with it but keep coming back to an "DataServiceForbiddenExceptionFiles must be uploaded using the resumable upload mechanism." error. Think it's to do with the headers but can't quite figure out what.

            $headers = array(
                "Authorization: GoogleLogin auth=" . $this->auth,
                "GData-Version: 3.0",
                "Content-Length: ". filesize($file),
                "Content-Type: ". $this->returnMIMEType($file),
                "Slug: ". $name);
        
        
            if($idFolder)
            {
                $url = "https://docs.google.com/feeds/default/private/full/folder%3A". $idFolder ."/contents";
            }
            else
            {
                $url = "https://docs.google.com/feeds/default/private/full";
            }        
        
            // Make the request
            curl_setopt($this->curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
            curl_setopt($this->curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
            curl_setopt($this->curl, CURLOPT_POST, true);
            curl_setopt($this->curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, file_get_contents($file));
            curl_setopt($this->curl, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, true);
        
            // Execute
            $response = curl_exec($this->curl);
            print_r($response );

Taking a glance at the API, it looks to be more a matter of which URI you post to. Look over Creating and uploading documents and files–it lists the URI for the resumable upload (retrieved by first querying https://docs.google.com/feeds/default/private/full), and the following three sections show example POST requests.

Of course, instead of mucking with all that you can use the PHP client library.
