Example

import React from "react";
import DriveUploady from "drive-uploady";
import UploadButton from "@rpldy/upload-button";

export const App = () => {

    return <DriveUploady        
            clientId="<my-client-id>"
            scope="https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file"
           >
              <h2>Drive Uploady</h2>

            <UploadButton>Upload to Drive</UploadButton>
        </DriveUploady>;
};

Upload to folder

import React from "react";
import DriveUploady from "drive-uploady";
import UploadButton from "@rpldy/upload-button";

export const App = () => {

    return <DriveUploady        
          clientId="<my-client-id>"
          scope="https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file"
          params={{ parents: ["folder-id"] }}
        >
          <h2>Drive Uploady</h2>

          <UploadButton>Upload to Drive</UploadButton>
      </DriveUploady>;
};

Use own GAPI instance

Drive-Uploady will try and use an existing window.gapi instance if its available. If not, it will create a new one (by adding a script tag).

In case you already have a GAPI client running in your page/app that's not available on the window, you can pass it as a prop:

import React from "react";
import DriveUploady from "drive-uploady";
import UploadButton from "@rpldy/upload-button";

export const App = () => {

    return <DriveUploady        
          clientId="<my-client-id>"
          scope="https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file"
          gapi={window.parent.gapi}
        >
          <h2>Drive Uploady</h2>

          <UploadButton>Upload to Drive</UploadButton>
      </DriveUploady>;
};
