9.2 Google Drive - Openscapes/2021-noaa-nmfs GitHub Wiki
Here is a repo that shows a simple example of downloading files from a Google Drive folder. It shows you how to set it up so that you can download files from our work Google Drive folder from R. This is happening locally (meaning on your computer). It is just like you downloading the files except that you are telling R to do the work for you---so that you can automate tasks and run everything with one script (say).
This was inspired from notes from Emily Markowitz (Session 2 speaker) on using data from Google Drive in your R projects:
AFSCDataReport: downloading everything collaborators have worked on from a folder in google drive
AFSCDataReport: using text file downloaded from google drive (not actually directly google drive specific)
AFSCDataReport: using a spreadsheet downloaded from google drive (not actually directly google drive specific)
GAPsurveyTemperatureMap: downloading a specific spreadsheet of data taken in the field from google drive
GAPsurveyTemperatureMap: uploading final products to google drive for the comms team
More examples
- a repo for a website
- my CV that references a single google sheet for all of it's content! It's mostly for when I talk to classrooms so students can learn more about me and award/fellowship/grant applications, but also a fun framework example that I think I can use for a few other projects. The real magic happens in this run.R script. Inspiration was from building a data drive cv with r and other similar blogs.
- sharing a google doc site, code,
- a google form site, code,
- embedding a Google Calendar in a site
- a spreadsheet site, code in a github page! To make it truly accessible, you have to share it through a personal email, but otherwise it's easy peasy!
