Trigger

New Stories on Dev.to
Description:Emit new Dev.to story
Version:0.0.4
Key:dev_to-fresh-stories

Dev.to Overview

With the Dev.to API, you can build applications that:

  • Stand out from the crowd on Dev.to by customizing your profile page
  • Build a Dev.to extension that helps other developers be more productive
  • Develop a bot that helps moderation on Dev.to
  • Get notified whenever a new article is published on a certain topic
  • And much more!

Trigger Code

import devTo from "../../dev_to.app.mjs";
import moment from "moment";
import common from "../common.mjs";

export default {
  name: "New Stories",
  type: "source",
  key: "dev_to-fresh-stories",
  description: "Emit new Dev.to story",
  version: "0.0.4",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    devTo,
  },
  dedupe: "greatest",
  async run({ $ }) {
    const data = await this.devTo.getArticles($, {
      params: {
        per_page: 1000,
        top: 1,
      },
    });

    data.forEach((event) => {
      this.$emit(event, {
        id: event.id,
        ts: moment(event.published_timestamp).valueOf(),
        summary: event.title,
      });
    });
  },
};

Trigger Configuration

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Action

Copy File on Google Drive
Description:Create a copy of the specified file. [See the docs](https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/reference/files/copy) for more information
Version:0.1.1
Key:google_drive-copy-file

Google Drive Overview

Using the Google Drive API, you can build applications that:

  • Create and manage files and folders
  • Download and upload files
  • Share and organize files
  • Search for files
  • Track changes to files
  • And much more!

Troubleshooting

Google Advanced Protection Program must be disabled in order to use the Google Drive app on Pipedream.

If you encounter the error "Google cannot give this app access to your account data because Advanced Protection is turned on for your Google Account", you will need to disable this setting as it blocks third-party apps from accessing Google Drive.

Action Code

import googleDrive from "../../google_drive.app.mjs";

export default {
  key: "google_drive-copy-file",
  name: "Copy File",
  description: "Create a copy of the specified file. [See the docs](https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/reference/files/copy) for more information",
  version: "0.1.1",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    googleDrive,
    drive: {
      propDefinition: [
        googleDrive,
        "watchedDrive",
      ],
      optional: true,
    },
    fileId: {
      propDefinition: [
        googleDrive,
        "fileId",
        (c) => ({
          drive: c.drive,
        }),
      ],
      description: "The file to copy",
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const resp = await this.googleDrive.copyFile(this.fileId);
    $.export("$summary", `Successfully created a copy of the file, "${resp.name}"`);
    return resp;
  },
};

Action Configuration

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

LabelPropTypeDescription

DrivedrivestringSelect a value from the drop down menu.
FilefileIdstringSelect a value from the drop down menu.

Action Authentication

Google Drive uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Google Drive account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Google Drive and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Google Drive API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

emailprofilehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/drivehttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly
