########## contrib/storage-googlesheets/README.md: ########## @@ -0,0 +1,156 @@ +# Google Sheets Connector for Apache Drill +This connector enables you to query and write to Google Sheets. + +### Usage Notes: +This feature should be considered experimental as Google's API for Sheets is quite complex and amazingly +poorly documented. + +## Setup Step 1: Obtain Credential Information from Google +Ok... this is a pain. GoogleSheets uses OAuth2.0 (may it be quickly deprecated) for authorization. In order to query GoogleSheets, you will first need to obtain three artifacts: + +* Your `clientID`: This is an identifier which uniquely identifies your application to Google +* Your `client_secret`: You can think of this as your password for your application to access GoogleSheets +* Your redirect URL: This is the URL which Google will send the various access tokens which you will need later. For a local installation of Drill, it will be: + `http://localhost:8047/credentials/<plugin name>/update_oauth2_authtoken`. + +1. To obtain the `clientID` and `client_secret` you will need to obtain the Google keys, open the [Google Sheets API](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library/sheets.googleapis.com) and click on the `Enable` button. +2. Once you've enabled teh API, you will be taken to the API Manager. Either select a pre-existing project or create a new one. +3. Next, navigate to the `Credentials` in the left panel. +4. Click on `+Create Credentials` at the top of the page. Select `OAuth client ID` and select `Web Application` or `Desktop` as the type. Follow the instructions and download + the JSON file that Google provides. + +Drill does not use the JSON file, but you will be cutting and pasting values from the JSON file into the Drill configuration. + +## Setup Step 2: Configure Drill +Create a storage plugin following the normal procedure for doing so. You can use the example below as a template. Cut and paste the `clientID` and `client_secret` from the +JSON file into your Drill configuration as shown below. Once you've done that, save the configuration. + +```json +{ + "type": "googlesheets", + "allTextMode": true, + "extractHeaders": true, + "oAuthConfig": { + "callbackURL": "http://localhost:8047/credentials/googlesheets/update_oauth2_authtoken";, + "authorizationURL": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth";, + "authorizationParams": { + "response_type": "code", + "scope": "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets"; + } + }, + "credentialsProvider": { + "credentialsProviderType": "PlainCredentialsProvider", + "credentials": { + "clientID": "<YOUR CLIENT ID>", + "clientSecret": "<YOUR CLIENT SECRET>", + "tokenURI": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token"; + }, + "userCredentials": {} + }, + "enabled": true, + "authMode": "SHARED_USER" +} +``` + +With the exception of the clientID, client_secret and redirects, you should not have to modify any of the other parameters in the configuration.
