Files.com Go Client

The Files.com Go client library provides convenient access to the Files.com API from applications written in the Go language.

Installation

Make sure your project is using Go Modules (it will have a go.mod file in its root if it already is):

go mod init

Then, reference files-sdk-go in a Go program with import:

import (
    "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go"
    "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go/folder"
)

Run any of the normal go commands (build/install/test). The Go toolchain will resolve and fetch the files module automatically.

Setting API Key

Setting by ENV

export FILES_API_KEY="XXXX-XXXX..."

Set Global Variable

import (
    "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go"
)

 files_sdk.APIKey = "XXXX-XXXX..."

Set Per Client

import (
    "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go"
    "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go/file"
)

config := files_sdk.Config{APIKey: "XXXX-XXXX..."}
client := file.Client{Config: config}

List

import (
	files_sdk "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go"
	folder "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go/folder"
    "fmt"
)

func main() {
    params := files_sdk.FolderListForParams{}
    it, err := folder.ListFor(context.Background(), params)

    if err != nil {
        // deal with error
    }

    for it.Next() {
        entry := it.Folder()
        fmt.Println(entry.Path)
    }
}

Upload a File

import (
	files_sdk "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go"
	file "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go/file"
)

func main() {
    client := file.Client{}
    uploadPath := "file-to-upload.txt"
    destinationPath := nil // Defaults to filename of uploadPath
    fileEntry, err := client.UploadFile(context.Background(), uploadPath, destinationPath)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
}

Via io.Reader

import file "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go/file"

func main() {
    client := file.Client{}
    io := strings.NewReader("my file contents")
    destinationPath := "my-file.txt"
    fileEntry, err := client.Upload(context.Background(), io, destinationPath)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
}

Download a File

import file "github.com/Files-com/files-sdk-go/file"

func main() {
    client := file.Client{}
    downloadPath := "file-to-download.txt"
    fileEntry, err := client.DownloadToFile(context.Background(), files_sdk.FileDownloadParams{Path: "file-to-download.txt"}, downloadPath)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
}
