Re: [racket-users] Re: using ryanc's oauth2 package with Google?

hahah!

I finished my "interacting with Google Drive via Racket" experiment. Basically, 
it recursively collects subfolders, and then lets you issue a search query over 
all of them at once.

If anyone wants to check it out, the code is here: 
https://github.com/fgmart/google-drive-racket.

I removed the "secret" from the commit. Email me if you want to use my Google 
Developer client :)

Thanks everyone for your help!

Fred

So... even though I chose "Other" as the client type, my API credentials were 
created with a secret.

I had to copy the secret into my client constructor request.

 From my reading of the oauth 2 API docs, I thought "installed app" clients 
weren't supposed to have secrets?


The Google OAuth2 API docs page for "installed applications" [1] says:

  In this context, the client secret is obviously not treated
  as a secret.

I don't know why they require the "secret", but they do, and they know 
it's a little weird.
