Google Spreadsheets data API Java Sample - README.txt
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This is a very simple Java example of how the API can be used on a
|
|
Google spreadsheet to add, remove, and modify rows like a data table.
|
|
|
|
Before starting this demo, make sure you create a spreadsheet. In
|
|
the top row, put headers, such as 'Name', 'Day', 'Address', or any
|
|
other important piece of information. A good example might be:
|
|
|
|
Name Day Phone
|
|
Rosa Tue 555-1212
|
|
Vladimir Wed 555-3137
|
|
Sanjay Thu 555-2127
|
|
Ejike Fri 555-4444
|
|
|
|
It is best practices to freeze the top row, in the 'Sorting' tab.
|
|
This way, sorting will make sure the top row stays intact. We
|
|
suggest you leave your browser open while trying this out.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This can be built an run with Ant:
|
|
|
|
1. Edit gdata/java/build-samples/build.properties with your Google Account
|
|
username, password, and a URL to your Google spreadsheet.
|
|
(in the format ....spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?id=...)
|
|
|
|
2. Run the Ant rule:
|
|
|
|
ant -f gdata/java/build-samples.xml sample.spreadsheet.list.run
|
|
|
|
Alternately, you can compile and run it from the command line:
|
|
|
|
java sample.list.ListDemo
|
|
--username [user]
|
|
--password [pass]
