OneDrive Component

The OneDrive component makes it easy to upload, download, and manage files and folders within Microsoft OneDrive.

Syntax

nsoftware.IPWorksCloud.Onedrive

Remarks

The OneDrive component provides a simple interface to working with Microsoft OneDrive. Capabilities include uploading and downloading files, strong encryption support, creating folders, moving and copying resources, OneDrive for Business and SharePoint Online support, and more.

To begin, first create an account and register your application with the Microsoft Graph API. Consult the Microsoft Graph API documentation for instructions on this process.

Authentication

This component supports authentication via OAuth 2.0. First, perform OAuth authentication using the OAuth component or a separate process. Once complete you should have an authorization string which looks like:

Bearer ya29.AHES6ZSZEJzATdZYjeihDn5W-VrXSsxEZu5p0pclxGdKKQ
Assign this value to the Authorization property before attempting any operations. Consult the documentation for the service for more information about supported scope values and more details on OAuth authentication.

Note: There are a couple of extra factors to consider when doing OAuth for OneDrive; please refer to the Authorization property documentation for more information.

Listing Resources

ListResources lists resources within the folder resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath. Calling this method will fire the ResourceList event once for each resource, and will also populate the Resources collection.

If there are still more resources available to list when this method returns, the ResourceMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until ResourceMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Resources collection.

// ResourceList event handler.
onedrive.OnResourceList += (s, e) => {
  Console.WriteLine(e.Name);
};

// (Assume that the RemoteId property isn't set; it takes precedence if it is.)
onedrive.RemotePath = "/work_files/serious_business/cats";
do {
  onedrive.ListResources();

  for (int i = 0; i < onedrive.Resources.Count; i++) {
    // Process resources here.
  }
} while (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(onedrive.ResourceMarker));

Downloading Files

The DownloadFile method downloads the file resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath.

If a stream has been specified using SetDownloadStream, the file data will be sent through it. If a stream is not specified, and LocalFile is set, the file will be saved to the specified location; otherwise, the file data will be held by ResourceData.

To download and decrypt an encrypted file, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword before calling this method.

Download Notes

In the simplest use-case, downloading a file looks like this:

onedrive.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
onedrive.RemoteId = onedrive.Resources[0].Id;
onedrive.DownloadFile();

Resuming Downloads

The component also supports resuming failed downloads by using the StartByte property. If a download is interrupted, set StartByte to the appropriate offset before calling this method to resume the download.

string downloadFile = "../MyFile.zip";
onedrive.LocalFile = downloadFile;
onedrive.RemoteId = onedrive.Resources[0].Id;
onedrive.DownloadFile();

//The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download:

//Get the size of the partially downloaded file
onedrive.StartByte = new FileInfo(downloadFile).Length;
onedrive.DownloadFile();

Resuming Encrypted File Downloads

Resuming encrypted file downloads is only supported when LocalFile was set in the initial download attempt.

If LocalFile is set when beginning an encrypted download, the component creates a temporary file in TempPath to hold the encrypted data until the download is complete. If the download is interrupted, DownloadTempFile will be populated with the path of the temporary file that holds the partial data.

To resume, DownloadTempFile must be populated, along with StartByte, to allow the remainder of the encrypted data to be downloaded. Once the encrypted data is downloaded it will be decrypted and written to LocalFile.

onedrive.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
onedrive.EncryptionPassword = "password";
onedrive.RemoteId = onedrive.Resources[0].Id;
onedrive.DownloadFile();

//The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download:

//Get the size of the partially download temp file
onedrive.StartByte = new FileInfo(onedrive.Config("DownloadTempFile")).Length;
onedrive.DownloadFile();

Uploading Files

The UploadFile method uploads new file resources to the folder resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath.

If SetUploadStream has been used to set an upload stream, it will take priority as the file data source. If LocalFile is set the file will be uploaded from the specified path. If LocalFile is not set the data in ResourceData will be used.

To encrypt the file before uploading it, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword.

Upload Notes

OneDrive offers two ways to upload a file. For smaller files a simple upload option is provided to upload data in one request. This is the default option. For larger files, uploads can be fragmented into multiple pieces, allowing resuming of uploads that may be interrupted.

Simple

By default the component uses the simple upload mechanism.

onedrive.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
onedrive.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");

Resumable

To enable resumable uploads set UseResumableUpload to true. This is recommended for large files. The component will automatically fragment the specified file into smaller pieces and upload each individually. FragmentSize may be set to specify the size of the fragment if desired. The default fragment size is 10 MB.

When UseResumableUpload is set to true and UploadFile is called, a resumable upload session is started by the component. ResumeURL is populated with a URL identifying the session (this value may be needed for additional operations if the upload does not complete normally).

During a resumable upload, the FragmentComplete event fires after each fragment is uploaded to indicate overall progress. The component also updates StartByte as necessary to indicate the current offset in the file.

If the upload is interrupted for any reason, resuming it is easy. First, verify that ResumeURL and StartByte are populated (if the same instance of the component is used, they should already be populated, and no special action should be needed). If uploading from a stream, be sure to reset its position to where it was the first time the upload was started (typically the beginning). Then call UploadFile again to resume the upload at the specified StartByte offset.

Note that if the upload is not resumed after some time the upload session will expire. PollUploadStatus may be used to check the status of a resumable upload, including when it will expire (which is stored in the UploadExpDate configuration setting). An interrupted upload can be aborted explicitly using the AbortUpload method.

onedrive.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
onedrive.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");

//The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download.
//Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous
//upload attempt.
onedrive.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");

MemoryStream uploadStream = new MemoryStream(File.ReadAllBytes("../MyFile.zip"));
onedrive.SetUploadStream(uploadStream);
onedrive.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");

//The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download.
//Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous 
//upload attempt.
//You MUST reset the stream's position to where it was when you first started the upload!
uploadStream.Position = 0;
onedrive.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
