App to store photos on Google Drive

[neatgadgets]

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.

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.
