Windowscommunitytoolkit: Where is OneDrive Service

[DrouSoft]

Hi,

Tweeter, facebook ok but where is the OneDrive Service ??????

Thanks

[JerryNixon]

I want to up-vote this more than once!

[JerryNixon]

Please, please, please model this after Windows.Storage - don't create a brand new file system API for developers to use when this is created! A service like this would unlock OneDrive in UWP apps.

[deltakosh]

Can you explain what you'll expect from this kind of API?
Something like:
OneDriveService.Instance.CreateFolder, .CreateFile, .GetFiles etc... ?

[peterbozso]

Yes, something like that.

[deltakosh]

Ok duly noted!

[Odonno]

Could be a killing feature if natively integrated.

[Code-ScottLe]

So probably something close to the UWP OneDrive app in term of functionality?

[deltakosh]

@demozone9 is working on it for 1.2

[Romasz]

@deltakosh Is there a branch/place where we can have a look at this OneDrive service?

Is there a chance that there will be support for BackgroundDownloads? As far as I remember NuGet OneDrive API lacks that which makes old, deprecated Live API better in that case.

[ScottIsAFool]

@Romasz I don't believe anyone has started a branch for this. Feel free to kick one off.

[Romasz]

@ScottIsAFool Haven't @deltakosh mentioned above that @demozone9 was/is working on it?

[deltakosh]

@EricVernie started it. I hope he could give us feedback soon

[deltakosh]

(Seems like Eric is OOF so we won't have this feature for 1.2)

[Romasz]

@deltakosh I wonder how far this service should be here developed - like OneDrive SDK? Or it should use the SDK?

Will wait for Eric's feedback.

[EricVernie]

The service is finished, Just need to implement a sample and I PR

[Romasz]

@EricVernie That's great, can't wait to see it 😄 Seems like this toolkit is going to be a really nice thing, it already will eliminate few of my own libraries.

[deltakosh]

@Romasz that's our final goal :D
