In this report, I would like to report about the current specification of the search query for the file list method in Drive API.

Recently, I noticed that the specification of the search query for the file list method in Drive API might have been changed. I thought that to know the change of specification of the search query is important for creating the application using Drive API. In this report, I would like to introduce the current specification of the search query.

Web Application for searching Google Apps Script Library from Database was completed. So I published it as v1.0.0. Please check Google Apps Script Library Database.

Overview

DateFinder is a GAS library for searching the date objects from the cell range on the sheet in the Spreadsheet and retrieving the searched range as the RangeList object using Google Apps Script (GAS).

Description

There is the Class TextFinder for searching the text from cells of the Spreadsheet using the Google Apps Script. But in this case, the date object in the cell is used as the string. Namely, the values for searching are used as the same with the values retrieved by getDisplayValues(). So for example, when there are the date objects in the cells with the various formats, the date cannot be searched by the Class TextFinder. So I created this library. When this library is used, the date objects in the cells can be retrieved by the date object and/or the range between 2 dates.

Benchmark: Search for Array Processing using Google Apps Script

Introduction

Please be careful! This result can be only used for Google Apps Script.

There are a limit executing time for Google Apps Script (GAS). That is 6 minutes.¹ So users always have to pay attention to reducing the process cost of the scripts. Especially, it is very important to know the process cost for the array processing, because the array processing is often used for spreadsheet and Google APIs. Recently, I have reported about the process cost of the loop for the array processing.² Also I have reported “Improved Algorithms for Summation of Array Elements” as a method for reducing the process cost.³ From these reports, it has found that GAS shows much different process cost from other languages. So it is important to investigate the process cost for various scenes. In this report, the process cost of “searching strings in an array” for the array processing using GAS has been investigated.

Overview

This is a CLI tool to search for images with Google Reverse Image Search.

Motivation

Because I had wanted to search for images with an image URL and file on my terminal, I created this. This can download images from searched image URLs.
