Cloud API allows you to perform the following operations:

• List files
• Upload file
• Download file
• Delete file

List Files

1. Create an API method, say GetCloudData, to fetch or read the list of files and folders from the container.
   

   C#

   Copy Code

   public class FolderFiles { public string ParentPath { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } public int Type { get; set; } public FolderFiles[] SubFolder { get; set; } //ItemID is required only in case of Google Drive public string ItemID { get; set; } public FolderFiles() { ParentPath = null; } } public async Task<List<FolderFiles>> GetCloudData(string cloudName) { var applicationInitPath ="FolderName"; // Initial path from where file list should be fetched string authority = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.Authority; string apiUrl = authority + "/api/storage/List"; string parentPath = "/" + cloudName + "/" + applicationInitPath); using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient()) { var url = new UriBuilder("http://" + apiUrl + parentPath); var response = await client.GetAsync(url.ToString()).ConfigureAwait(false); if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode) { var data = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().ConfigureAwait(false); var table = Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<FolderFiles>>(data); foreach (var row in table) { row.ParentPath = parentPath; if (row.Type == 0) { row.SubFolder = new FolderFiles[0]; } } return table; } } return new List<FolderFiles>(); }

2. Create a method, say LazyLoading_GetCloudData, for fetching details for the specified folder.

   C#

   Copy Code

   public async Task< List<FolderFiles>> LazyLoading_GetCloudData(string subPath, string parentPath, string cloudName, string itemId) { string authority = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.Authority; string apiUrl = "http://" + authority + "/api/storage/List"; using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient()) { var url = new UriBuilder(apiUrl + parentPath); if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(subPath)) url = new UriBuilder(url + "/?subpath=" + subPath); //While working with Google drive, itemId is required to make sure in which folder is working if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(itemId)) url = new UriBuilder(url + "?itemid=" + itemId); var response = await client.GetAsync(url.ToString()).ConfigureAwait(false); if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode) { var data = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().ConfigureAwait(false); var table = Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<FolderFiles>>(data); foreach (var row in table) { row.ParentPath = parentPath + "/" + subPath; if (row.Type == 0) { row.SubFolder = new FolderFiles[0]; } } return table; } } return new List<FolderFiles>(); }

Upload File

To upload a file to the container, call C1WebAPI and refer to the specified location in code:

var baseUrl = window.location.origin;//"http://localhost:9272/";

function Upload() { 
            var file = document.getElementById("file").files[0]; 
            var data = new FormData(); 
            data.append("file", file); 

            var url = baseUrl+'api/storage/' + cloudName + "/" + folderPathToUploadFile+ "/" + file.name; 
                        
            //This code is only for using Google Drive service
            if (itemId != null) { 
                url = url + "?itemid=" + itemId; 
            } 

            $.ajax({ 
                url: url, 
                type: 'POST', 
                data: data, 
                cache: false, 
                contentType: false, 
                processData: false 
                                
            }).then(function (res) { 
                alert("Uploaded") 
            }) 
        }

Download File

To download a file, create anchor element with the URL “api/storage”+ filepath and call click method using the following code:

var baseUrl = window.location.origin;//"http://localhost:9272/"; 
function Download() { 
                var url = baseUrl+'/api/storage/' + cloudName + "/" + folderPathToDownloadFile + "/" + FileNameToDownloadwithExtension;  
                var elem = wijmo.createElement(""); 
                elem.click(); 
            }

Delete File

To delete a file, use the following code:

var baseUrl = window.location.origin;//"http://localhost:9272/"; 
function DeleteFile() { 
                var url = baseUrl+'api/storage/' + cloudName + "/" + folderPathToDeleteFile + "/?subpath=" + FileNameToDeleteWithExtn; 
        
                //This code is only for using Google Drive service
                if (itemId != null) { 
                     url = url + "?itemid=" + itemId; 
                } 

                $.ajax({ 
                    url: url, 
                    type: 'DELETE', 
                    cache: false, 
                    contentType: false, 
                    processData: false, 

                    success: function (data, success, obj) { 
                        alert("Deleted"); 
                        refreshTree(); 
                    } 
                }); 
            }
