LiveCode Forums.

I am about to embark on building an app in which part will store photos on an internet drive such as Google Drive. I have seen how to do it through Eclipse and it's pretty complex, but having just seen what LiveCode can do today I am wondering if you can do this in LiveCode? Essentially I want the user to be able to take a photo, have it saved to a central drive and a database record the location of that file.

Has anyone done this using a mix of LiveCode and php? I would prefer it to be in one simple action of take a photo and upload but if that cannot be done I would try the php method.

Hi,

It's not exactly what you want, but does give a guide to using LC and PHP - with a server database too.

If you need more help with either language then feel free to ask.

Sorry for hijacking this thread but Dave is the php go to guy.

Hi Dave,
I can start another thread just say.
How do you POST a file from Android/other to a server? errr.... w/o using a browser

There are many ways, depending on what's being sent, and what's being used on the server.

Thanks Dave,

I will take a look, I am pretty proficient with php, but just wanted to know if LiveCode had a way of doing this. I did find in the Academy videos an example using ftp which I will try out.
