MyG

About

MyG is about working with Google APIs directly from a Google Extension. This extension is capable of getting data from Gmail API v1, Drive API v3, Tasks API v1 and very soon Contacts v3.

I'm not an expert (trust me I'm an engineer), I mainly work with SharePoint, discovering non MS technologies is very challenging. I can promise that there will be a ton of mistakes, hiccups and even non-sense. Feel free to show the (right) way.

Google APIs

Enabling Google APIs

1. Open the Google Developer Console
2. Create a new Project
3. Create a new set of Credentials :
   1. Create a new API Key
   2. Create a new OAuth 2.0 client IDs (I used Chrome App, it seems to be enough)
4. From the dashboard, enable the Google API for Drive and Gmail.

Loading API (Example for Google Tasks)

gapi.client.load('tasks', 'v1', renderTasks);

Documentation

I'll do my best to document the "why?".

You will find more information in the wiki pages :

• Folder Structure
• Mail features
• Drive features
• Tasks features
• Contacts features

I look after this article https://www.sitepoint.com/mastering-your-inbox-with-gmail-javascript-api/

I had to made some changes to make sure it was working with the Google Chrome Extension.

Stay tuned.
