drive_toc: Identify all Folders within Specified Google Drive Folder

Description

Identifies all sub-folders within a user-supplied Drive folder (typically the top-level URL). Also allows for exclusion of folders by name; useful if a "Backups" or "Archive" folder is complex and a table of contents is unwanted for that folder(s).

Usage

drive_toc(url = NULL, ignore_names = NULL, quiet = FALSE)

Value

(node / R6) Special object class used by the `data.tree` package

Arguments

url

(drive_id) Google Drive folder link modified by `googledrive::as_id` to be a true "Drive ID" (e.g., `url = as_id("url text")`)

ignore_names

(character) Vector of name(s) of folder(s) to be excluded from list of folders

quiet

(logical) Whether to message which folder it is currently listing (defaults to `FALSE`). Complex folder structures will take time to fully process but the informative per-folder message provides solace that this function has not stopped working

Examples

 
if (FALSE) {
# Supply a single Google Drive folder link to identify all its sub-folders 
drive_toc(url = googledrive::as_id("https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/your-folder"))
}
