This is a sample script for using the values submitted from the HTML form using Google Apps Script and Javascript. In this case, the values include the files.

Issue

<form>
  Text: <input type="text" name="sampleText1" /><br />
  Single file: <input type="file" name="sampleFile1" /><br />
  <input
    type="submit"
    name="button"
    value="submit"
    onclick="main(this.parentNode)"
  />
</form>
<script>
  function main(e) {
    google.script.run.sample(e);
  }
</script>

This is a simple sample script for sending the values of form to Google Apps Script. In this case, texts and file are sent. When the button is clicked, main() is run. In this case, this.parentNode is sent to google.script.run.sample(this.parentNode). At that time, at Google Apps Script side, the text value can be correctly retrieved. But the file cannot be correctly sent. When the file is created as a file on Google Drive, the file is broken. I think that the reason of this issue might be due to character code.

10 Aug 2022: Report: Challenging Exporting Selected Cells on Spreadsheet as Image using Google Apps Script and Javascript

Old approach

This is a sample script for converting a range in Google Spreadsheet as an image data using Google Apps Script. Unfortunately, there are no methods for directly converting the range in Google Spreadsheet as an image data in the built-in functions. So in this case, as a workaround, Charts Service is used.

These are sample scripts for modifying the 1st-page header in Google Document using Google Apps Script. Unfortunately, in the current stage, the 1st-page header cannot be modified by Document service. In this case, it is required to use Google Docs API. Here, I would like to introduce 2 sample scripts for modifying the 1st page header using Docs API.

When you use this, please enable Google Docs API at Advanced Google services.

This is a sample script for uploading a file to Google Drive from the external HTML without the authorization. In this case, the client side can be used at the outside of Google. And as the server side, the Web Apps created by Google Apps Script is used.

Usage

Please do the following flow.

1. Create new project of Google Apps Script.

Sample script of Web Apps is a Google Apps Script. So please create a project of Google Apps Script.

python library - getfilelistpy was updated to v1.0.7.

This is a sample script for decoding a QR code put in Google Slides using Google Apps Script. In this case, Javascript is used at the opened dialog. And Canvas API and jsQR are used. So unfortunately, this method cannot be used with the time-driven trigger and the Google Apps Script project of the standalone type.

Of course, this method can be also used for Google Document and Google Spreadsheet. But at Google Spreadsheet, I recommend to retrieve the image of QR code with the fetch method from URL.

This is a sample script for cropping images in the Google Slides using Google Apps Script. In the current stage, in order to crop the images in Google Slides, it is required to use replace(blobSource, crop) Because, although there is the “cropProperties” of “UpdateImagePropertiesRequest” in Slides API, unfortunately, in the current stage, this cannot be still used. This has already been reported. Ref

About cropping using replace(blobSource, crop), I thought that how to use might be a bit difficult. So here, I would like to introduce a sample script for using replace(blobSource, crop).

This is an important point for using reduceRignt with and without v8 runtime for Google Apps Script.

Sample script

function myFunction() {
  var array = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"];
  var res = array.reduceRight(function (ar, e, i) {
    ar.push([e, i]);
    return ar;
  }, []);
  Logger.log(res);
}

Result

With V8

When V8 runtime is used, the following result is obtained.

[["e",4],["d",3],["c",2],["b",1],["a",0]]

Without V8

When V8 runtime is NOT used, the following result is obtained.

[["e",0],["d",1],["c",2],["b",3],["a",4]]

Summary

When above results are compared, it is found that the indexes are different. The indexes of “With V8” is in the opposite direction to that of “Without V8”. Please be careful this.

• v1.0.3 (August 1, 2020)

  1. When the file size less than the default chunk is downloaded, an error occurred. This bug was removed.

Overview

This is a Google Apps Script library for creating, updating and exporting Google Apps Script project of the standalone type using Drive API. In this case, Apps Script API is not used.

Description

I had reported “Drive API cannot create Google Apps Script project no longer” before. Ref About this, I had reported the future request. Ref At July 30, 2020, I could confirm that the Google Apps Script project of the standalone type got to be able to be created by multipart/form-data using Drive API again. Ref This is a good news for me. By this, in order to use this with Google Apps Script, I created this library. Because in this case, when the update method is used, the special scope of https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.scripts is required. So I thought that when this is published as the Google Apps Script library, this will be useful for users.
