How to use Google Drive API in Android application? about android-samples HOT 6 CLOSED

The Drive Android API is deprecated and will be shut down in December. We're recommending clients access Drive via the REST API. We've posted a migration guide:
https://developers.google.com/drive/android/deprecation

...as well as a sample app demonstrating the use of the REST API in an Android app:
https://github.com/gsuitedevs/android-samples/tree/master/drive/deprecation

from android-samples.

@rbstarbuck Exactly, I too found this sample, https://github.com/gsuitedevs/android-samples/tree/master/drive/deprecation but the only thing is that I don't find the jar files that are used in the classes
EX:

import com.google.android.gms.auth.api.signin.GoogleSignIn
import com.google.android.gms.auth.api.signin.GoogleSignInClient;
import com.google.android.gms.auth.api.signin.GoogleSignInOptions;

FYI: I use Eclipse as the IDE. And I installed all the Google Play Services on Android SDK, but still couldn't find the jar files.

It would be great if you help us. Thanks

To access Google Play Services APIs you can add the google() repository in your root build.gradle, e.g.:
https://github.com/gsuitedevs/android-samples/blob/master/drive/deprecation/build.gradle

Then you can specify individual libraries in the dependencies of your app's build.gradle, e.g.:
https://github.com/gsuitedevs/android-samples/blob/master/drive/deprecation/app/build.gradle

@rbstarbuck thanks for the response. Is it possible to achieve this with the Cordova application? Or, we need to try some other possibility to achieve google drive integration on Cordova apps?

Unfortunately we don't have any familiarity with the Cordova platform.
