pCloud Java SDK

The official pCloud SDK for Java & Android for integrating with pCloud's API.

Requirements

Java 7.0+
Android 2.3+ (API9+)

Documentation

The documentation for the SDK can be found here.
The pCloud API documentation can be found here.

Getting started

1. Create a pCloud account

Visit pCloud's website and create an account.

2. Register your pCloud API application

Login to the pCloud Developer Site
Create an application in the pCloud App Console Page.
Take note of the app key(client ID) of your application once you create it.

3. Configure your pCloud API application

Add a publisher.
Add a description.
Add a redirect URI in the Redirect URIs field in your application configuration page.

The SDK expects pcloud-oauth://{your.application.package} custom Uri to be added in the Application configuration page.

Optionally add an icon that will be displayed to users upon authorization requests.
Turn on the Allow implicit grant option.
Save the changes.

4. Install the SDK

Java

Grab via Maven:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.pcloud.sdk</groupId>
  <artifactId>java-core</artifactId>
  <version>1.5.0</version>
  <type>pom</type>
</dependency>

or Gradle:

implementation 'com.pcloud.sdk:java-core:1.5.0'

Android

In addition to the functionality provided by the java-core module, Android applications can benefit from platform-specific features. The android module provides a built-in authorization Activity that handles the application authorization requests. For details on usage, refer to the AuthorizationActivity documentation.

Grab via Maven:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.pcloud.sdk</groupId>
  <artifactId>android</artifactId>
  <version>1.5.0</version>
  <type>pom</type>
</dependency>

or Gradle:

implementation 'com.pcloud.sdk:android:1.5.0'

Basics

Creating a Client

ApiClient apiClient = PCloudSdk.newClientBuilder()
                .authenticator(Authenticators.newOAuthAuthenticator(<your OAuth access token here>))
                // Other configuration...
                .create();

ApiClient instances should be reused as much as possible. Avoid creating multiple instances.
Existing ApiClient instances can be re-configured by calling ApiClient.newBuilder() and creating a new instance.
Existing ApiClient instances can be 'killed' by calling ApiClient.shutdown().
For details on the available configuration options, see here

Making API calls

Creating a `Call`:

Call<RemoteFolder> call = apiClient.listFolder(RemoteFolder.ROOT_FOLDER_ID);

Creating Call instances does not by itself make any API request, treat the objects as a declaration of intent. See the following sections for more information on how to execute calls.
For a full list of available API calls, see here.

Executing a `Call` and obtaining the result on the same thread:

RemoteFolder folder = call.execute();

Call.execute() will execute the call on the calling thread, blocking it until a response is delivered, a timeout is reached or an error occurs.
Call.execute() will throw an IOException on a networking error and ApiError on error returned by pCloud's API.
Request timeouts can be controlled via the methods in ApiClient.Builder
Avoid calling Call.execute() from the UI thread, as it can potentially block for an extended period of time. On Android applications targetting API11+ , calling this method from the main thread will cause a NetworkOnMainThreadException.

Executing a `Call` asynchronously:

call.enqueue(new Callback<RemoteFolder>() {
                @Override
                public void onResponse(Call<RemoteFolder> call, RemoteFolder response) {
                    // Successful response
                }

                @Override
                public void onFailure(Call<RemoteFolder> call, Throwable t) {
                    // Call failed with an error.
                }
            });

Call.enqueue() will return immediately, the actual work will scheduled on another thread.
Callback.onResponse() will be called on a successful response.
Callback.onFailure() will be called if an error occurs during the execution of the call.
By default Callback methods will be called on an arbitrary thread, to control this behavior see ApiClient.Builder.callbackExecutor(Executor)

Reusing `Call` instances:

A 'Call' instance should be used only once, that is any further call to Call.execute() or 'Call.enqueue()' after the former have been already called, will lead to a runtime exception.
Calls can be reused by calling Call.clone() that will create a new, identical object, that can be used to make a new API request.

Call<RemoteFolder> newCall = call.clone();

File operations

List folder

// Get direct children.
RemoteFolder folder = apiClient.listFolder(<The folder id of target folder>);

// Get direct children and other files recursively. (slower and potentialy memory-intensive).
RemoteFolder folder = apiClient.listFolder(<The folder id of target folder>, true);

RemoteFolder folder = ...;
// Update folder and children information.
RemoteFolder updatedFolder = folder.update();
// Update folder and children information, including all child entries.
RemoteFolder updatedFolder = folder.update(true);

Copy File

RemoteFile file = ...;
RemoteFolder destinationFolder = ...
// Copy file to folder, will block.
RemoteFile copiedFile = file.copy(destinationFolder);

ApiClient apiClient =...;
RemoteFile file = ...;
RemoteFolder destinationFolder = ...

//Execute call immediately, call will block;
RemoteFile copiedFile = apiClient.copyFile(file, destinationFolder).execute();

// Execute call asynchronously
apiClient.copyFile(file, destinationFolder).enqueue(new Callback<RemoteFile>() {
                @Override
                public void onResponse(Call<RemoteFile> call, RemoteFile copiedFile) {
                    // Successful response
                }

                @Override
                public void onFailure(Call<RemoteFile> call, Throwable t) {
                    // Call failed with an error.
                }
            });

Upload a file

Uploading a local file to pCloud:

ApiClient apiClient =...;
File localFile = ...;

RemoteFile uploadedFile = apiClient.createFile(
	RemoteFolder.ROOT_FOLDER_ID,
    localFile.getName(),
    DataSource.create(localFile),
    new Date(localFile.lastModified())
        .execute();

Uploading a local file to pCloud with progress notifications:

ApiClient apiClient =...;
File localFile = ...;
ProgressListener listener = new ProgressListener() {
	public void onProgress(long done, long total) {
    	System.out.format("\rUploading... %.1f\n", ((double) done / (double) total) * 100d);
	}
};

RemoteFile uploadedFile = apiClient.createFile(
        RemoteFolder.ROOT_FOLDER_ID,
        localFile.getName(),
        DataSource.create(localFile),
        new Date(localFile.lastModified(),
        listener)
	.execute();

Download a file

Download a remote file to a local folder:

RemoteFile remoteFile = ...;
File localFolder = ...;
File localFile = new File(localFolder, remoteFile.name());
remoteFile.download(DataSink.create(localFile));

Download a remote file to a local folder with download progress notifications:

RemoteFile remoteFile = ...;
File localFolder = ...;
File localFile = new File(localFolder, remoteFile.name());
ProgressListener listener = new ProgressListener() {
	public void onProgress(long done, long total) {
    	System.out.format("\Downloading... %.1f\n", ((double) done / (double) total) * 100d);
	}
};

remoteFile.download(DataSink.create(localFile), listener);

Download a remote file to an arbitrary destination:

RemoteFile remoteFile = ...;
remoteFile.download(new DataSink() {
	@Override
	public void readAll(BufferedSource source) throws IOException {
		// Read bytes from source.
        source.readByte();

		// Read bytes with an InputStream:
        source.inputStream().read();
	}});
